A Rival for the Hockey Alpha のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 31 - チャプター 40

LaraI had been waiting for two hours. My phone felt like a dead weight in my hand, heavy with my frustration. I’d called Riven again and again. Each unanswered ring just made my blood run hot. How could he do this to me, and to top it all he wasn't even replying to my messages.It was not the first time that he had done this. It was his way, a habit, and even though I wasn't okay with it, I would pretend as though it was fine. Because I had to be the perfect one as was expected of me. He wouldn't return my calls, as much as he wouldn't reply to my texts.I looked around the hall. The space was beautiful, all clean and set with the trainers all ready for us. It was a hall set aside just for us—the future Alpha and Luna. And I was here for the person who was supposed to be my other half, my Alpha, my future. But he wasn't here.And that wasn't all. He had totally refused to come. Or should I say he had sworn not to come. I had been told by Father that he had dismissed himself from the

Riven Asking like he meant care.I met his glare this time. “That’s my business,” I growled. “Not yours.”His eyes narrowed to a fiery slit. “It is my business, boy,” he snapped. “You are the Alpha-to-be. And your actions reflect on our family. On this pack.”The words were a hammer to my head. My mind screamed at me to speak. I was slowly losing it. “Your family, Alpha. Not mine,” I corrected.“Riven. If you will not let me talk, then I think we have nothing to say.” he shunned at me.Perfect! I screamed mentally. That was fair enough. Because I wouldn't sit here and be intimidated. Not now, not ever. I immediately stood up shifting my chair backwards in an attempt to get away from this place as soon as possible.He looked at me, with a cold fury in his eyes. “Will you sit down there!” he commanded, his voice a low, dangerous rumble. “What is wrong with you?!”My body shook with rage as I muttered my own defiance not looking at him still. “I should be asking you.”He slammed his han

SkyMy third class for the day had just ended and somehow I happened to be having all the classes with Gray and only one so far with Riven.Gray had been a very good companion. Barely smiles, but he seemed to be more knowledgeable than he even looks. He was a great conversationalist too, and I was having a great time talking to him. He happened to be a great distraction from all the chaos in the morning that had kept all my thoughts pending for now.The hallway was quiet, we were kind of taking a walk around the school. I barely knew anywhere around here so he was doing me the favor of sightseeing, if that is what I should call it.It was just a few students walking around here, and Gray was lecturing me throughout our walk about the different categories of trainers and whenever we met any, he made sure to explain the kind of personality that person embodied. He would describe everything about the trainer save for the person’s genotype and wolf blood group. It was funny and boring at

Sky“I’m not hungry,” he growled like he had forced the words through his teeth.But before he could finish, a loud, long rumble came from his stomach. A sound that filled the quiet space between us. His stomach decided to betray his pride.A small gentle smile crept up my face. Such a pathetic fellow. His face was all red from embarrassment. He tried to push past me, and I instinctively held his hand. A jolt of warmth spread through me as my skin touched his. He paused, and I knew he had felt it too.“Your stomach says no.” I looked at my hand which was still holding his. “Come on, it’s better eaten hot.”He wasn't fighting the grip and he didn’t pull away. I walked him to the table, and he sat down.I put a plate of food in front of him. He hesitated for a while before picking up the spoon. He wasn't looking at me at all—he was fully focused on the plate. His lashes fluttered as he blew on the hot stew. His lashes were beautiful… and so full they looked like that of a doll. My wolf s

RivenThe door clicked shut behind us. But I could still feel Sky's stare on me.My wolf, Ford, was already in a tug-of-war with me, clawing at my chest in disapproval. Ford would have to deal with this because this is what we were obligated to do. I wasn't about to give in to a man mate.Lara had her hand wrapped around my neck, her fingers tangling in my hair. Her touch was warm, but it felt… empty. I knew I was already over Lara somehow, especially because of the whole thing going on, but that didn't mean I still didn't adore her or have subtle feelings for her. But this time it was different. My body subconsciously stiffened under her touch.It almost felt… wrong."I brought you your favorite cookies," she said sweetly, her eyes searching mine.“Oh… thanks,” I responded simply.She paused her movement. "Look, baby, I’m sorry. I'm sorry for everything. I know I did wrong, and I am so sorry. I went to the marriage course without asking you how you felt about it first."I was still l
