All Chapters of Falling For The Alpha Hockey Player. : Chapter 141 - Chapter 150

Knox's POVDarkness.That's all there is at first. Thick, suffocating darkness that wraps around me like a shroud.I try to move, but can't. Try to speak. Can't do that either.Am I dead?The thought drifts through the blackness, detached and distant.Maybe this is what death feels like. Nothingness. Absence. Just... void.But then pain registers. Distant at first, like an echo. Then sharper. More insistent.My ribs. My jaw. My entire body screaming that I'm broken.Dead people don't feel pain, so I must be alive.The realization brings no comfort. Just the growing awareness of how badly I'm hurt. How close I came to not making it out of that arena.Voices filter through the darkness. Muffled. Indistinct.“...stable but…”“...won't wake up…”“...without his wolf, healing is…”The words fade in and out like a radio with bad reception. I try to focus on them, try to pull myself toward consciousness. But the darkness drags me back down.Time becomes meaningless. Could be minutes. Could b

Cassie's POVThe figure bursts through the trees, and for a heartbeat, hope explodes in my chest.Knox. He came for me. He's here.But when the moonlight hits his face, my breath catches.It's not Knox.Adrian.His eyes are glowing red, his body already beginning to shift. Bones crack and reshape as fur ripples across his skin.“You!” Lizzy snarls, dropping the knife as her own transformation begins.I watch in horrified fascination as both of them change. It's nothing like the movies— it's violent and visceral. Bones breaking and reforming. Skin splitting to make way for fur. Faces elongating into muzzles filled with sharp teeth.Within seconds, two massive wolves stand where Adrian and Lizzy were.Adrian's wolf is larger, his fur a silvery grey that seems to glow in the moonlight. His eyes remain that burning red, fixed on Lizzy with dangerous intent.Lizzy's wolf is smaller but leaner, built for speed. Her grey eyes have turned yellow, filled with rage.They circle each other, grow

Cassie's POV“What?” The word bursts from me, confusion mixing with the adrenaline still coursing through my veins. “Who… what are you?”‘I just said I'm your wolf, silly!’ The voice in my head is almost giggly. Like we're meeting at a coffee shop instead of in the middle of a life-or-death situation. ‘Well, technically I'm you. Or part of you. It's complicated. But hi! I'm so excited to finally talk to you!’‘That's impossible.’ I'm backing away from Alpha Warren, my eyes darting between him and Knox's still body. ‘I'm human. I don't have a wolf. I can't—’‘You've never been human, Cassie.’ The voice— my wolf— sounds patient now. Gentle. ‘You've been hidden. Suppressed. Someone locked me away when you were very young. But now? Now our mate is dying and I won't stay buried anymore.’Our mate.Knox.The bond suddenly flares in my chest, stronger than it's ever been. I can feel him through it, not just the absence of life, but the very last threads of his existence clinging desperately

Cassie's POVAlpha Warren's wolf goes completely still beneath us. His eyes— those cold, merciless eyes that had watched Knox die without flinching— now hold something else entirely.Confusion. Shock. And something that looks almost like... fear.“You're not supposed to be alive," he whispers, his voice shaking. “You can't be. She said… Elena said you were dead.”Our claws press harder against his chest, right above his frantically beating heart. “What are you talking about? How do you know that name?”He doesn't answer immediately. Just stares at us with those wide, disbelieving eyes. Like he's seeing a ghost.“Your mother,” he finally says, his voice barely audible even in our mind. “Tell me about your mother. What was her name?”“Why?” We snarl, suspicion and confusion fighting inside us. “Why do you care?”“Please.” The word sounds wrong coming from him. Desperate. Broken. “Just tell me. What was her name?”Something in his tone makes us hesitate, makes us answer despite every ins

Cassie's POVThe bond explodes to life, not gradually or gently.It slams into me with the force of a tidal wave, drowning me in sensation, emotion and pure, overwhelming connection.Knox's pain. His exhaustion. His desperate, clinging hold on life. But also his relief. His love. His absolute, unwavering certainty that I'm his and he is mine.The mate bond snaps fully into place like a lock finding its key. Golden light erupts from where my hand touches Knox's chest. It spreads across his skin, glowing bright enough to illuminate the entire clearing.“What's happening?* Maya's voice sounds distant, awed.“The bond is completing,” Adrian answers, his tone filled with wonder. “I've never seen it this strong before. This... intense.*The light grows brighter. I can feel it working through Knox's body, searching out every injury, every broken bone, every failing organ. And healing them, not completely, but enough.Enough to pull him back from the edge. Enough to give his body the strength
