HIS LIPS FOUND MY NIPPLE

Chapter 141AceThe digital clock on my nightstand read 12:47 AM and I was still wide awake, staring at the ceiling and trying not to let my mind spiral into all the worst-case scenarios it kept conjuring.Max had texted three hours ago saying he was sorry, that his family wanted to have dinner and talk, and that he'd come by my dorm as soon as he could.I'd texted back that it was fine, that I understood, that he should take his time with his family.But now it was nearly one in the morning and every minute that passed felt like confirmation of my deepest fears.They hated me. Of course they hated me—I was an Alpha, who turned their son gay, with a sister who'd helped destroy Max's human family.They probably spent the whole dinner explaining to Max why dating me was a terrible idea, listing all the reasons I wasn't good enough, painting pictures of the kind of future he could have with someone more suitable.Someone who is the opposite gender.And Max was probably sitting there list

REGARDLESS OF WHAT ANYONE ELSE THOUGHT

Chapter 142AceHe didn't respond verbally, just continued his descent down my body with his mouths leaving a trail of heat across my stomach and hip bones.His hands hooked into the waistband of my shorts and briefs, tugging them down slowly, I lifted my hips to help him remove them completely.The cool air hit my heated skin and I shivered, but then Max's mouth was there, hot and wet as he kissed along the inside of my thigh getting closer and closer to where I needed him most.My breath caught when I felt his lips press against my dick through the thin fabric of my briefs, the warmth of his mouth seeping through and making me harder than I'd thought possible.He mouthed at me through the fabric, his tongue tracing the outline of my length, and I had to bite my lip to keep from making embarrassing noises that would wake up my roommate in the next room."Max, please," I whispered, and my hips bucked involuntarily seeking more friction, more contact, more of everything he was offering

I'M IN

Chapter 143 AceThe morning light filtering through my dorm curtains felt too bright, too cheerful for the heaviness that still lingered between us from the night before.Max was already awake when I opened my eyes, lying on his side watching me with an expression that was equal parts tender and troubled."Morning," I said softly, reaching out to trace the line of his jaw with my fingers."Morning," he replied, catching my hand and pressing a kiss to my palm.We lay there for a few moments in comfortable silence before I couldn't hold back the question anymore. "What exactly did they say? Last night, I mean."Max's expression shuttered slightly and he looked away. "Ace...""Please," I interrupted gently. "I know it was bad. I can see it in your face. But I need to know what we're dealing with."He sighed heavily and rolled onto his back, staring at the ceiling. "They said a lot of things. Most of it doesn't matter.""Max...""My father and mother were very... insistent," he said fin

FOR MAX, I'D FACE ANYTHING.

Chapter 144AceRelief flooded through me. "Thank you. Really, thank you.""Don't thank me yet," she said with a soft laugh. I'm sure his parents will come around. But you're right that Max deserves better than what they gave him the other night. I'll do what I can."After we hung up, I finished gathering my gear and headed for the door. Max was lying on his bed scrolling through his phone with a slightly bored expression that made me smile despite my worry.I made sure he didn't hear our conversations."I'll be back in a few hours," I said, leaning down to kiss him goodbye. "Try not to miss me too much.""No promises," he said, pulling me down for a deeper kiss that made me seriously consider skipping practice after all.But I forced myself to pull away and grab my hockey stick. "I love you. See you later.""Love you too," Max called after me as I headed out the door......I was almost to the athletics complex when my phone buzzed with a call from an unknown number.I almost didn't

IT SHOULD ALL BE A LIE

Chapter 145AceThe Blue Haven Café sat on a quieter corner of Main Street, the kind of place that catered to serious conversations rather than casual hangouts. Through the large front windows, I could see Max's father already seated at a corner table, his posture rigid and formal even in the relaxed café setting.My hands were sweating as I pushed through the door, the small bell above chiming to announce my arrival. A few customers glanced up briefly before returning to their coffee and conversations, oblivious to the fact that my entire world might be about to shift on its axis.He looked up as I approached, his expression unreadable. He was an imposing man even sitting down—broad-shouldered with the kind of presence that commanded attention without effort. I could see where Max got his strong features, though Max's face held a warmth that his father's lacked."Thank you for coming," he said, gesturing to the seat across from him. His tone was formal, businesslike, as if we were

LIVE WITH THAT

Chapter 146Ace The phone rang twice before Dad answered. "Ace? Hope all is good? This one you're calling...""Is it true?" My voice came out rough, barely above a whisper. "Dad, tell me it's not true."A long pause. Too long. "What are you talking about?""Max's kidnapping. Freya. Uncle Gab." I was gripping the phone so hard my knuckles had gone white. "Tell me Max's father is lying. Tell me our family had nothing to do with what happened to him."Another pause, and in that silence, I heard everything I needed to know."Ace, let me explain...""Just answer the question," I interrupted, my voice breaking. "Yes or no. Was Freya involved in Max's recent kidnapping?""It's complicated...""Yes or no!""...Yes." The word was quiet, almost gentle, as if that would somehow soften the blow. "But son, you have to understand the circumstances..."I ended the call.My hands were shaking so badly I nearly dropped the phone. The café around me seemed to blur, sounds becoming distant and muffled
