Alle Kapitel von Rejected by the Alpha Hockey Captain And Then Claimed By His: Kapitel 81 – Kapitel 90

Rosalie’s povLately he looked really good with damp hair, broad shoulders and darned smile, my eyes lingered on him longer than I was meant to and that was weird, there was no way I was thinking that he was that attractive. Well he didn’t look half bad, especially with training going on. His hair, broad shoulders and buff build, sometimes I stared so hard that I drooled, thankfully, this wasn’t one of those moments.“Most people consider it rude to stare” his chuckle rippled through my thoughts, causing me to close my mouth. My eyes flickered with anxiety. “I..I wasn’t, wasn’t staring” I lied, trying to distract myself with the cup of cocoa in my hand when he pulled down his shirt that looked so body conned because it clinged to his chest and biceps.“Whatever you say, wife” he smiled and moved closer to me before pressing his lips onto my cheek. “See you soon” he smiled before leaving.I tapped my finger onto the place his lips had touched and felt heat grow inside of me. “Oh, an

Elias’ povAfter there were weird sounds coming from outside, I decided to check what that was. The blistering cold reached all parts of my semi clothed skin. Maybe it wasn’t a great idea to just have a robe to my skin without a pair of pants. I listened some more for that sound that brought me out, that disrupted my routine of watching her sleep. Although today she looked perturbed in her sleep, sweating and everything.Just as my ears listened some more I turned back to the door and noticed a small frame rushing towards me.“Rosalie..” I called out with my arms stretched out as she ran into me, tightening her grip around my body with each second that it almost felt hard to breathe. “I thought..I thought that you were gone”My eyes focused on her and I cupped her face in my hand, causing her grip to loosen. “I’m not going anywhere” I said subtly, watching tears pool in her eyes. “I only came out here to check something out” “So..so you’re not leaving?” She sniffled. “No, no, ofcou

Rosalie’s povI laid there on the couch, my brain still blank. My eyes glanced over at the wall clock and I could tell that he wouldn’t be home for another four to five hours.“I better start working” I mumbled under my breath, moving out of the living room and heading to the small kitchenette we had. I needed to do something with my hands before my head ate me alive.I started washing the dishes this morning. The same two mugs, his protein shaker that always smelled like vanilla no matter how much I scrubbed it, my little plate. Elder Knox's words kept looping in my head, mates of such wolves dying young, it felt more like a threat than a diagnosis.I had seen the way Elias looked when he told me. He was trying to be brave for me, but I know that look now, it’s his captain look. The look he gets before a tough game when he knows someone might get hurt but he has to go out there anyway.I rinsed my hands and pressed them to my chest again, nothing, no thump that wasn't my own heart,

Rosalie’s povI woke up because someone was shaking me, desperately."Rosalie! Rosalie, please! Hey! Hey, look at me! Please!"The voice was broken. It was Elias. My eyes flickered to see his hands on my face and they were so warm they burned my cold skin.I tried to open my eyes but my eyelids felt like they were made of lead. My whole body felt heavy, like I had been swimming in deep snow for hours and my limbs had forgotten how to work and my chest hurt. "Elias?" My voice came out as a croak. "Yes! Yes, I am here! I am here, love! you’re okay, you’re okay, just breathe for me, okay? Just breathe!"I forced my eyes open.He was holding me in his lap on the living room floor. His hockey bag was thrown in the doorway. He was still in his sweaty practice clothes, his hair wet, his face pale and terrified. His eyes were red like he had been crying or like he was about to. He was rocking me back and forth like a child.I realized I was freezing. My fingers were ice but his chest was wa

ELIAS’ POVIt was a tie game with four minutes on the clock. The scoreboard buzzed red above me 3 to 3 and I had to clench my stick hard and breathe even harder.My head was still ringing from the boards and my knee throbbed every time I put weight on it but thankfully they’d heal soon enough. My gloves were torn at the seam where I had clenched my fists so hard trying not to shift.Owen still had a hand on my shoulder and Jace had his stick across my chest like a barrier."Breathe, Cap," Owen said low, only for me to hear. "Breathe, you go now, we lose you for the season. Scouts will write you off as a hot head, Easton’s in the crowd too, calm your horses, I know it’s difficult but Rosalie is watching."I looked past him to the front row.Rosalie was not screaming anymore and hands were pressed flat against the glass. Her face was white, her eyes were locked on mine and they were not saying do not fight. They were saying come back.I picked up my stick. The sound it made when it hit
