Chapter 71- Telling the Alpha

Elliot POVI was holding the reader tightly that my fingers hurt. The gold light on the screen just kept pulsing. It did not go away. Sebastian was standing in front of me. His chest was moving up and down slowly. The smell of cedar in the bathroom was very strong. It was hard to breathe.He did not look at me. He just kept staring at the screen in my hand. I took a step back into the bedroom. My knees felt weak. "Hubby," I said quietly.Sebastian followed me out of the bathroom. He did not walk like a person. He moved like an animal that was following something. His boots made no sound on the floor. He finally looked at me. The intensity in his eyes made me catch my breath. The calm person he usually was had disappeared."Elliot," he said. His voice was low and rough. He reached out to me. His hands were shaking a little. "Show me again."I held out the device. The gold icon was reflected in his eyes.He stopped moving. All his muscles were tense. The room was completely silent for a

Chapter 72- The Arbitration Trap

Sebastian POVI put on my silver cufflink. It clicked into place on my wrist. It was a sound in the quiet car. Outside the car window, I saw the league headquarters building. The rain had stopped . The stone walls were wet and dark.I looked at my hand. I could still feel the warmth of Elliot's skin. My thumb rubbed against my finger. I could almost feel his heartbeat. The word "pup" was in my mind. It was like a drumbeat in my blood.I wanted to protect Elliot. I had already taken steps to do that. I had left three guards outside our home. They answered to me, not the league. Nobody was going to hurt my husband.Aris spoke up from the seat. "The Toronto board members are already inside, sir," he said. "They signed the agreements. You have a lot of voting power right now. Devereux cannot call a vote.""Devereux does not need votes if he uses the health clause." I said, my voice was flat. I did not sound happy. "He wants to make a scene. He wants to hurt Elliot. He wants to say that th

Chapter 73- The Swiss Files

Sebastian POVThe silence in the boardroom was tight. The wood beneath my hands felt cold. Across the table, Commissioner Devereux stared at me, his eyes wide. He was trying to look calm. His right hand was pressing hard into the leather of his chair."You think you can scare me with a threat of prison, Sebastian?" Devereux said. He pulled his shoulders back, trying to look strong. "You are an owner, nothing more. You do not make the rules of this league. The bylaws stand.""The bylaws do stand," I said, straightening up slowly. I did not raise my voice. A quiet leader does not need to shout to get attention. ". You no longer have a board to enforce them."I reached into my pocket. Pulled out a small black flash drive. I placed it gently on the center of the oval table. The tiny piece of metal slid across the polish, stopping right in front of the heavy-set owner from Boston."What is that?" the Boston owner asked, looking from the drive to my face."That is why Arthur wanted a distra

Chapter 74-Public Arena

Elliot POVThe air inside the Toronto Wolves facility smelled bad like old ice and cheap wax. I held onto the edge of the rink, my knuckles turned white because I felt sick to my stomach. I clenched my jaw and swallowed the bad taste.The players on the ice were practising. The sound of the puck hitting the sticks was loud and familiar. Today, it hurt my head."Keep moving, Nathan!" I yelled. My voice was not as loud as usual. The players started moving faster anyway. They knew I was under a lot of pressure. Everyone knew.The TVs in the lounge had been showing the news for a day. Commissioner Devereux got arrested. He did something with money. The news people wanted to talk about that. They also wanted to talk about me, the Toronto Wolves captain, who is going to be a dad and is married to the Kings' captain.The side door to the rink opened. Aris walked in. He looked serious as he was checking his tablet.I did not turn around. I kept looking at the ice. "How many reporters are outs

Chapter 75-Total Lockdown

Sebastian POVThe thick cardstock felt cold in my hand. I stared at the target painted on the Toronto Wolves logo. The paint was fresh. Left a small smear on my skin. Someone had walked into this facility, bypassed the locks, and put a threat in my husband's gear bag.They got too close to Elliot. They got too close to our pup.The air in the office filled with a strong, heavy scent. It smelled like cedar and crushed ice, with a bitter edge. My chest tightened as I looked at the security monitors. The screens showed hallways and corridors. The staff walked around without a care. They had no idea how close a threat had just come to the captain."Get the head of stadium operations in here now," I told the guard. My voice was low and flat.The guard didn't ask questions. He just tapped his earpiece and left the room.I looked back at the card. My mind went through every scenario. Commissioner Devereux was behind bars. He still had a lot of power. He had people on the payroll and inside t

Chapter 76- The Escape

Sebastian POVThe border on the tablet screen was flashing like a warning light. It was shining against the wood of the boardroom table, making the message look really scary.FACILITY COMPROMISED. PRISONER ESCAPE IN PROGRESS. TARGET DETAILEE DEVEREUX ACCOUNTED FOR MISSING.Elliot stared at the screen, his face turning completely white. Before I could grab him, he backed away, shook his head, and bolted out the boardroom doors to get to his team."Tell me," I said to Aris, my eyes staying on the open doorway. My voice was really quiet.Aris swallowed hard. He used his thumb to scroll down the screen to refresh the feed. The information did not change. "It happened twenty minutes ago when they were moving him from the courthouse to the maximum-security wing. They attacked the vehicle three blocks from the exit ramp.""How many people were hurt?""Two guards are dead," Aris said quietly. His fingers were shaking against the edge of the tablet. "Both of them were really good at their jobs

Chapter 77-The Intercept

Elliot POVThe high beams shine really bright in the tunnel. I squint because it hurts my eyes. Our armored SUV is stuck on the side of the road. Three black cars are blocking our way. The doors open. Men get out into the rain. They are wearing vests and carrying big guns."Aris!" Sebastian yells. He pulls out his gun from under his jacket. "Fix the car. Get us moving now.""The computer is locked," Aris says. He rips off a plastic cover. Pulls out a bunch of wires. "I have to connect them by hand. Give me ten seconds.""We do not have ten seconds," Sebastian says. He looks at our driver. "When the car starts, you hit the gas. Go between the two cars in the middle. We will push through their line.""Yes, sir," the driver says. He holds the wheel tight. His hands are white.The men outside raise their guns. I put my hand on my stomach. My heart is beating fast. The air in the car feels thin. I close my eyes. I get ready for the crash.Wham.A bullet hits the window next to my head. It m

Chapter 78- Medical Clearance

Sebastian POVThe weight of my mate in my arms was a shock. Elliot did not move. His head hung back over my forearm, his pulse a fast flutter against my wrist. I did not wait for Aris. I did not wait for the guards. I walked fast across the stone floor of the room. I carried him to the master bedroom.I laid him on the mattress. The sheets were white and crisp. They were a contrast to the pale gray tint of his skin."Aris," I barked. My voice cut through the room. "Report."Aris stood at the door frame. His hand was pressed to his earpiece. "The secure team just brought Dr. Jace through the basement gate. They bypassed the elevator. They are coming up the service shaft now.""Tell them to move," I said. I was worried about Elliot.I sat on the edge of the mattress. My hand shook as I reached out to touch Elliot. I clamped my fingers around his hand. I used a crush grip. I needed to feel the bone and muscle. I needed to know he was still there. My palm was hot against his ice-skin.The

Chapter 79-The Bench Captain

Elliot POVThe smell of cedar and frozen earth was stuck in my throat. I sat on the edge of the penthouse bed, my fingers curled into my track pants. Two days of rest. Two days of Sebastian pushing his chest against my back, filling our space with Alpha pheromones until my heart stopped racing.Dr. Jace adjusted the strap on my arm. The blood pressure monitor made a hissing sound, then deflated slowly."One twenty over eighty," Jace said. He took off the cuff. Put it away. "The beta-blockers worked. Your vessels relaxed. The baby is stable."I reached for my hockey gloves on the nightstand. "Then I go to the arena.""You stay on the bench, Elliot," Jace said, his voice flat. He closed his case with two clicks. "No skating. No physical contact. You get upset, your pressure goes up. I pull your medical clearance before the first intermission. Got it?""Got it," I said.Sebastian stood by the window. His big frame blocked out the morning light. He did not look back at Jace. He looked at

Chapter 80- Ownership Power

Sebastian POVMy binoculars smashed against the floor. I did not feel a thing in my hands. I did not hear them break. My eyes stayed fixed on the ice. There was a spot on Elliot's gloves where someone had spit.Hughes was standing there with a grin on his face. He looked up at my suite, thinking he was safe. He thought the glass and the distance between us would protect him. He was wrong.My heart was beating hard. I was so angry. The smell of cedar and earth in my suite was making me feel sick. It was like a weapon. Aris took a step back, his hand on his side, his eyes wide with fear. He could tell I was furious."Sir," Aris said, his voice tight.I did not answer him. I just walked past him. My boots were loud on the hardwood floor and the carpet in the hallway. The door to my suite closed behind me. I did not hear it. The crowd was too loud, booing and cheering.They did not know what had happened. I knew someone had spit on Elliot. I was going to do something about it."Call the b
