All Chapters of THE HOCKEY ALPHA WANTS ME: Chapter 91 - Chapter 100

Chapter 91Max"Deep breaths," Ace was saying and his hand left the steering wheel to grip mine. "Just breathe through it, Max, I know it hurts but you have to breathe."I tried to do what he said but every breath felt like dragging razors through my lungs and the pain was getting worse instead of better. I wanted to scream but I couldn't make my voice work.Ace was driving fast and the scenery outside the window was blurring past. I lost track of how long we'd been in the car because time felt strange and distorted and all I could focus on was the pain and the heat and the feeling that something inside me was trying to get out.Then the car was slowing down and we were turning off the main road onto a narrow dirt path that disappeared into dense forest. I wanted to ask what the hell we were doing but I couldn't form the words.The car came to a stop in a small clearing surrounded by thick bushes and towering trees, Ace turned off the engine and the sudden silence was deafening.He

Chapter 93Max"A werewolf," Ace finished for me. "Yes. You are."I stood up on shaking legs and immediately regretted it because the world tilted sideways and I had to grab onto a nearby tree to keep from falling. Everything felt wrong. My body felt wrong. Like it didn't quite fit anymore, like someone had taken me apart and put me back together slightly differently."How long have you known?" The question came out before I could stop it.Ace flinched. "Max...""How long, Ace?"He stood up slowly, carefully, like I was a wounded animal that might bolt at any sudden movement. Which, I suppose, wasn't far from the truth.“Four years ago,” he said quietly.Four years."Four years?" My voice betrayed me, rising in pitch, cracking. I felt my hands ball into fists. My control threatening to snap. "You've known for four years that I was a werewolf and you never said anything?"“I didn’t know how to tell you,” Ace offered. It sounded weak, a flimsy excuse tossed onto a raging fire."I wante

Chapter 95Max"You learn," Ace said. "You practice shifting, you learn to control the wolf, you figure out how to live with what you are. And I'll help you. I promise, Max, I'll help you through all of it.""And the mate bond?" I asked. "What about that?"Ace looked at me for a long moment, and I could see a thousand different emotions warring in his eyes. "That's up to you," he said finally. "The bond exists, but it doesn't control you. You can choose to accept it or reject it. You can choose who you want to be with, if anyone at all."I wanted to laugh because that was bullshit and we both knew it. I'd already chosen. I'd chosen the moment I kissed him that night, surrounded by ice, chosen again when I spent that night with him in the hotel, chosen every time I reached for his hand or leaned into his touch.But that was before. Before I knew what I was. Before everything got so impossibly complicated."I need time," I said. "I need time to process all of this. To figure out what it

Chapter 97MaxWhat about all the memories I had of them and all the moments we'd shared and all the times they'd told me they loved me?Had any of it been real or had it all been built on a foundation of lies?What about late grandpa. Was he also aware I wasn't his grandson?The thoughts are so painful.My whole world has collapsed in just a week. Everything I knew were false and everyone I trusted had been lying to me.My stomach made a loud growling sound that echoed in the quiet room and I realized I hadn't eaten since today and my body was demanding fuel.There was a soft knock on the door, I sat up as Ace poked his head in."I thought you might be hungry," he said and he was carrying a tray with a plate of food that smelled incredible. "I made you something."He set the tray on the dresser, I could see steam rising from what looked like pasta, chicken and vegetables and my stomach growled again louder this time."First time shifting especially one like you just went through drai

Chapter 99MaxI couldn't form words anymore so I just pulled him back up and kissed him, making sure I poured everything I was feeling into it—all the fear, the anger, hurt, love and desperate need.He reached between us and I gasped at the contact, he swallowed the sound with another kiss."I need to get..." he started but I shook my head."Just you," I said. "I just need you."He nodded and took his time preparing me with his fingers while kissing me breathless and by the time he finally positioned himself at my entrance I was trembling with anticipation."Look at me," he commanded softly and I opened my eyes to find him staring down at me with an intensity that made my heart skip. "I want to see you."He pushed in slowly and carefully. I had to bite my lip to keep from crying out because it was perfect and overwhelming, exactly what I needed."Okay?" he asked, completely still inside me waiting for my signal."More," I managed to say. "Please, Ace, more."He started moving and I w
