All Chapters of My Fake Boyfriend Is My Enemy Hockey Captain : Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

Lena“Absolutely not.”Zara nearly choked on her iced coffee. “You haven’t even heard of the idea yet.”“I don’t need to.” I shoved my laptop into my bag and stood from the library table. “If your idea involves Kane Ravenwood, illegal activity, or emotional damage, the answer is no.”“That’s literally all my ideas.”“Exactly.”She followed me out of the library with dramatic suffering written across her face. “You’re so difficult for someone with such a pretty face.”I ignored her.The October air outside Blackthorn University carried that sharp coldness that bit through clothes and turned everyone miserable. Students rushed across campus wrapped in oversized hoodies while orange leaves covered the sidewalks.Meanwhile, giant Ravens hockey banners hung from nearly buildings like the school worshipped the team more than actual education.Pathetic.“You know,” Zara said casually, “most people would be excited that Kane Ravenwood noticed them.”I stopped walking immediately.“He did not

Lena“You should be careful, Lena.”The words followed me all the way home.Which was annoying.And unfair.Because I’d spent years hating Kane Ravenwood just fine without hearing his voice inside my head.Now suddenly I couldn’t stop replaying it.I shoved open my dorm room door harder than necessary.Zara looked up from her bed, immediately suspicious.“That bad?”I dropped my bag onto the chair.“That man is impossible.”Her eyes lit up. “So you did talk to him.”“I hate you.”“That means yes.”I kicked off my shoes and paced toward the window.Outside, Blackthorn University looked almost peaceful under the evening sky. Students crossed campus wrapped in jackets while cold wind shook the trees.Peaceful outside.Chaos inside.Zara sat up straighter. “Tell me everything.”“No.”“Lena.”“He refused the interview.”“That’s it?”“That should be enough.”Her expression screamed liar.I groaned.“Fine,” I muttered. “He was rude. Arrogant. Insufferable.”“And?”“And what?”“You’re leaving

LenaI didn’t know what annoyed me more.The fact that Kane showed up at Mason’s apartment like he owned the place—Or the fact that I left before getting answers.Cold wind slapped against my face as I crossed campus.Blackthorn looked different when you were angry.The old brick buildings felt heavier.The pathways seemed longer.And every laughing student suddenly became irritated.My phone buzzed.Zara:You disappeared. Are you alive?I typed back immediately.Me:Barely.Three dots appeared.Zara:That drama usually means gossip. Meet me at Ash Café.Honestly?Coffee sounded necessary.—Ash Café sat near the journalism building.Warm lights.Crowded tables.Music low enough to ignore.I found Zara already waiting with two drinks.She took one look at me and sat straighter.“That bad?”I dropped into the seat.“You know what?” I said. “I’m officially done with mysterious men and emotional secrets.”Her eyebrows lifted.“Kane?”“And Mason.”That surprised her.“What did your broth

LenaI locked my dorm door three times.Which was ridiculous.And embarrassing.And completely Kane Ravenwood’s fault.I stood in the middle of my room staring at the handle like it had personally betrayed me.Outside, snow tapped softly against the window.Inside, my thoughts were chaos.Zara sat cross-legged on her bed eating chips.“You’re pacing.”“I’m walking.”“You’ve crossed the room seventeen times.”“I counted your chips once. We all make mistakes.”She narrowed her eyes.“You’re scared.”“I’m irritated.”“You’re scared and irritated.”I dropped onto my chair and tossed my phone onto the desk.The unknown messages still sat there.Silent.Waiting.Which somehow felt worse.Zara reached for my phone.“Blocked?”“Yes.”“Good.”I leaned back and stared at the ceiling.The black SUV.The stranger.And Kane’s face when he saw that vehicle.That part stayed with me.Not fear.Recognition.Like he knew something he didn’t want to say.Again.My phone buzzed.I froze.Zara froze too.

LenaMy hands wouldn’t stop shaking.I hated that.Not because fear embarrassed me—But because Kane saw it.The message still glowed on my screen.Ava warned him too.Look what happened to her.The media room suddenly felt suffocating.Too bright.Too small.Nobody spoke.Eli looked pale.Kane looked worse.Not afraid.Something darker.Like the message had dragged him somewhere he didn’t want to revisit.I locked my phone slowly.Then I looked at him.“You knew this would happen.”His jaw tightened.Not denial.That irritated me immediately.“You knew,” I repeated.Eli shifted awkwardly.“Lena—”“No.”My voice cracked sharper than intended.I stood.Chair scraping loudly across the floor.“No more half-truths.”Kane stayed quiet.Which only made me angrier.“You knew about the messages.”Silence.“You knew about Ava.”Still nothing.“And now somebody is sending me threats using her name.”My pulse pounded painfully.His expression remained unreadable.Dangerously calm.I hated calm
