All Chapters of Stuck Between Two Alpha Heir’s: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

Piper’s POVThe air outside my apartment was cold enough to sting my cheeks, but it cleared my head just enough to remember where I needed to be; the hockey arena.Rollins, my mate, had a game today.Just the thought of him steadied the chaos in my chest. He was my anchor and the one thing in my life that made sense when everything else was a mess of unanswered questions and half truths.By the time I got to the arena, the crowd was already thickened. Spectators from different packs sat on the bleachers, their voices buzzing with the kind of electric anticipation only hockey could stir. Determined to get a spot at the front where I could see him clearly, I pushed my way through. My breath was forming little clouds in the air and my pulse quickened with every chant of his name. He was the team captain and golden boy. “Where is he?" I muttered, darting my eyes around the rink. “Over there." Ember my best friend said, nudging me slightly. Following her gaze, my eyes fell on him. He

Piper’s POVFor a split second, I thought maybe the universe had granted me a miracle, that Elsa’s hand had frozen mid air on its own and that her smug little smirk had been interrupted by divine punishment.But then I saw it; a hand, big, tanned and veiny was wrapped around her wrist in an iron grip.My gaze traveled upward and locked with a storm grey pair that made my stomach flip in a way I wished they didn’t.Archie Quinn.The entire cafeteria hushed like someone had cut the sound from the world. Dozens of eyes darted between him and me as whispers hissed through the silence like sparks before a wildfire.For once, Elsa didn’t look so sure of herself. She blinked at him, her lips parting as the bravado slipped from her face. Slowly, he pried the milk carton from her hand and for a moment, I thought he might hand it back gently.But Archie didn’t do it gently.He shoved her hand away, not hard enough to hurt but firm enough to make her stumble backwards.Her gasp that rang throu

[Narrator's pov]Piper's heart thundered in her ears as she stood shaken in between Rollins and the wall behind her. He held both her hands, pinning her in place. Piper glared hard at him, masking her dread in fury. But she was angry at him. He rejected her and caused her so much pain and humiliation. And now? Now he says ‘I made a mistake’ like it's a casual statement. Her teeth clenched “Let go of me, you bastard!” She said angrily, twisting her wrist as she tried to pry free from his grasp. Rollins scoffed playfully “Bastard? You have only ever called me sweet names” His words made her skin crawl. She was head over heels for this guy, but she couldn't even bring herself to say she loved him anymore. Or perhaps denial was her own way of grieving the bond she lost. “We are not mates anymore” she spat, her tone raw with finality. A sharp gasp escaped her lips when, suddenly, Rollins threw both her hands above her head. He held her hands tightly with one hand while the other gras

Archie's brows twitched, annoyance evident in his voice as he spoke “Is that it?” His voice came out sharp, irritation etched on his face. “Is that what you want to ask?” his palm folded into a fist “Is that all you care about?” There was a short pause, after which came a stern voice. “What are you talking about, Archie?” wherever his father was, he was frowning deeply. Archie's anger flared “You’re not even going to ask how my first day went? Or how I’m settling into the new environment? Whether I’ve found an apartment or made any friends?” His jaw tightened, teeth clenched as the words left his mouth. His skin prickled hearing his Father sigh with exhaustion. “We have talked about this, Archie. You know the reason you were transferred there. I advise you to stick to that script” He clicked his tongue, continuing “All these things you mentioned are trivial to me. There are more pressing matters, son. Soon, you will be crowned Alpha. Your mate and Luna are very crucial to the pack

The school ground the next day was rowdy as if it were a supermarket on black Friday sales. From the entrance to the hallways, people kept blabbering about some race that happened the day before. They all seemed to have forgotten what happened with Piper and Rollins. Piper barely even had eyes on her today. Who was it that made themselves the gossip of the day? Piper was just about to walk past the cafeteria, which was swarming with people, when she was pounced upon by a certain energetic individual. “Hey, Piper!” Ember called out excitedly, grinning widely. She seemed overhyped by something. Piper concluded it was probably some juicy gossip. She showed zero interest, her eyes leveling on Ember with a dry look. “What is it?” she asked flatly Ember made a shrill noise “Guess. What?” Piper shrugged. “What?” She was getting more and more apathetic to whatever it was she had to say. Ember was too excited, she couldn't say it. So she pulled her into the cafeteria “Come see for yours
