All Chapters of Seducing My Werewolf Hockey Captain: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Chapter 11: This Is My Life Now~ Gwen ~It had been just over a week since I made the decision to stop running and give RavenBane a real chance.A week since Aunt Anne sat me down and dismantled everything I thought I knew about myself, my parents, and the quiet ordinary life I had been raised to believe was simply just — life. A week since I found out that the town I had moved to was not a town in any normal sense of the word, but something closer to a community built entirely around people who could grow claws and shift into wolves and apparently considered that completely unremarkable.I was still not okay with it.I wanted to be clear about that.I walked out of the reporters club meeting with my notebook pressed against my chest, moving through the corridor beside Elodie and trying very hard not to stare at every person we passed and wonder which of them had a wolf sitting quietly behind their eyes. The answer, statistically speaking, was most of them. Which was insane. Which wa

Chapter 13: Trying Not To Freak Out In My New Life~ Gwen ~The house smelled like whatever Aunt Anne was cooking, something with garlic and herbs that reminded me, unexpectedly and without warning, of Sunday evenings back in Boston. My mother used to cook on Sundays. She would put music on low and move around the kitchen like she had all the time in the world, and the whole apartment would fill up with warmth and the smell of something good.I stood at the dining table and laid out the cutlery without thinking too hard about that, because thinking too hard about it led somewhere I wasn't ready to go."So how was school today?" Aunt Anne called from the stove."It was good," I said.A pause from the kitchen. "Just good?""Yep.""Nothing specific? No class you enjoyed? No conversation worth mentioning?"I turned to look at her. "How do you define enjoying a class when half the people sitting next to you could physically turn into wolves if something upset them badly enough?"Aunt Anne

Chapter 15: Bonfire Party Night~ Yates ~The auditorium was empty, which was the only reason I had pulled Fanny in there instead of somewhere more private. I needed walls between whatever she was feeling and the rest of the school before it became a problem nobody could walk back from.She yanked her hand out of my grip the moment the door swung shut behind us."Don't stand there and pretend you didn't enjoy that," she said.I stared at her. "Why would I enjoy watching my girlfriend and the new girl go at each other in the middle of the cafeteria?""Because you like her," she said flatly. "And don't insult me by denying it.""Fanny —""I see it, Yates. I'm not stupid and I'm not blind, whatever she seems to think." Her shoulders were tight, her jaw set in that specific way that meant she had already decided how this conversation was going to go and was simply waiting for me to catch up. "I don't like how comfortable she's getting here. Like she belongs.""She doesn't know anything,"

Chapter 17: Alpha’s Heritage~ Yates ~I woke up feeling like someone had used my skull for target practice.The light filtering through the blinds was too sharp, too aggressive, slicing across my eyes until I had to throw an arm over my face. I was in my bedroom, still tangled in the sheets, but the air felt stale. Gradually, the fog in my brain began to lift, and the jagged pieces of last night started to slot back into place.I remember the heat of the bonfire. I remember the bitter taste of the whiskey. I remember Jerome practically hauling me into his car while Fanny waved from the porch of her farmhouse, her voice trailing off as she told him to drive safe.Getting up the stairs had been a battle. Jerome had been shoving me toward the landing while I tried to argue that I was perfectly fine to sleep on the kitchen floor. He’d won eventually, mainly because I’d tripped over the top step and crawled the rest of the way to the mattress.I sat up, rubbing my face until my skin tingl

Chapter 19: Lost in the Woods ~ Gwen ~The morning of the field trip arrived with a sky the color of a bruised plum. I met Elodie at the entrance of the auditorium, both of us clutching our state-issued supply kits like they were life rafts."Aside from being paired with Marcus Anderson, I’m actually excited for this," Elodie said, though her smile didn't quite reach her eyes before it flickered out completely."What's that face for?" I asked, nudging her shoulder."I’m just not happy we aren't partners, Gwen. That’s all." She kicked at a loose stone on the pavement. "It feels wrong heading into those woods without you at my back.""Oh, come on, Elodie. Cheer up," I said, trying to sound more confident than I felt. "It’s not like you’re going to be partners with Marcus forever. It’s just a few hours of digging in the dirt.""True," she sighed, nodding slowly. "I guess I can survive Marcus for an afternoon."Professor Atkins arrived exactly on time, clapping his hands to get our atten
