บททั้งหมดของ BEYOND THE ICE: บทที่ 11 - บทที่ 20

LYONI am reeling.Actually, let me rephrase that—I am completely stunned by my own lack of restraint.Viktor and Adrian didn't just take me; they dismantled me. They overrode every refined instinct I possessed, forcing me to the precipice of my own endurance. They made me feel utterly powerless, as if I were nothing more than a toy for their pack to discard.And the most terrifying part?I craved every second of it.I had practically begged for that specific brand of ruin.As I retreat toward the Team Locker Room, I use the hem of the Stormbreakers jersey to smear away the lingering evidence of their victory from my jaw. When I pulled this jersey on this morning, I harbored some vague, professional hope that it would make me seem like a team player, perhaps softening the edges of our mutual hostility. I hadn’t anticipated it becoming a signal fire for a hunt.During my tenure at the media desk, I never imagined there would be a physical reckoning for my words. When I first encountere

RAFAELIf a month ago any scout had predicted this trajectory for the pack, Rafael would have laughed in their cynical face. Yet, four weeks after Lyon Navarro made his high-profile debut as the Stormbreakers’ new strategist, the man hadn’t managed to sabotage their season. Instead, he was busy dismantling their defenses in a far more carnal fashion. Scarcely a day vanished since that initial encounter at the steakhouse where Rafael hadn't tasted the salt of Lyon’s skin, felt those elegant lips encircling his length, or anchored himself deep within Lyon’s shivering, powerful frame.On a peak day, Rafael managed to claim every form of surrender Lyon offered, and he knew the other Alphas were reaping the same rewards. Even in the quiet of the Clubhouse, Lyon was the sole occupant of their collective thoughts. When they referred to the "Writer" now, it was usually a boast regarding the sheer, addictive intensity the man brought to their beds."Listen up, wolves." Rafael projected his voi

LYONThe Stormbreakers were sent to the showers to scrub the scent of the rink and the sweat of victory from their skin, while Lyon was directed to the Clubhouse to wait. The only media narrative for this match would be whatever his successor at the news desk attempted to fabricate—which, in Lyon's professional estimation, meant the team was far better off maintaining a total blackout. After a few more performances like today’s, however, their dominance would be an undeniable fact that no hit piece could obscure.Tonight, though, the world outside the Pacific Ice Arena ceased to exist. It was only the pack and the man who had become their center.Navigating the labyrinthine, sterile corridors of the stadium, Lyon finally arrived at the massive, blue lacquer double doors of the Stormbreakers Clubhouse. He had intellectually understood it as a sanctuary for the roster to decompress or snatch a few hours of rest between grueling practices, so he hadn't prepared himself for the sheer scal

ADRIANSince the night of their inaugural victory, the atmosphere between Lyon Navarro and the rest of the pack had shifted fundamentally. Undoubtedly, he remained the same sharp-tongued strategist who had systematically dismantled their previous seasons with his calculated media strikes—but now, he was also the primary catalyst behind their current absolute dominance on the ice. While he still possessed an endless supply of refined barbs and sophisticated retorts to hurl at them whenever one of the Alphas sought to get under his skin, there was an underlying layer of warmth to his defiance now.He wouldn’t be Lyon Navarro without that signature blend of elegance and razor-sharp snark, after all. In Adrian’s mind, every time the man called him an unrefined, impulsive wildman, it was simply Lyon’s unique way of signaling his deepening investment in the pack."If you Alphas continue to dominate the home ice with this much ferocity, you’re going to attract a following larger than you’re

The atmosphere in the penthouse thickens, heavy with the scent of pine and rain—the unmistakable musk of an Alpha who has spent too much time in the wild. Lyon’s reaction is visceral; the strategist's composed facade has more than just cracked. Whether he is prepared to voice it or not, Adrian knows his revelation—the raw truth of his past—has struck a chord deeper than any media headline ever could.The crimson silk of the harness strains and then gives way as Adrian discards it, letting the expensive fabric flutter to the hardwood like autumn leaves. He has seen Lyon’s lean, powerful physique many times since the man took over the Stormbreakers' operations, but a surge of possessive heat flares in his chest as he realizes this is the first time he has the Strategist entirely to himself. Adrian’s hands are far from gentle as he grips Lyon’s waist, hauling him down. When their mouths collide, the kiss is a starving thing. It is forceful, desperate, and despite the frantic rhythm of Ly
