All Chapters of My Rejected Mate Is The Ice King: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

Rowan's POV Coach Henderson immediately stood. "What about him?""He's fighting!"The coach's expression darkened."Who?""The Frost Fangs!"The assistant swallowed hard."Their captain came over after practice to discuss the upcoming charity match, but I don't know what happened. The two of them started arguing, and now they're throwing punches in the middle of the rink!"Coach Henderson let out an exasperated sigh and pinched the bridge of his nose. "For the Moon Goddess' sake...""He promised me he'd stop settling every disagreement with his fists."The assistant gave an awkward smile. "Apparently... today's promise didn't last very long."Coach Henderson grabbed the whistle from his desk and strode toward the door. "Come with me."He glanced at me as he reached the doorway. "You might as well get your first lesson early, Rowan."I blinked. "My first lesson?"He gave me a weary smile. "Working for the Scarlet Wolves means patching up injuries."He paused before adding with a sigh,

Drake POV He hadn't raised his voice. His mere presence was enough to make the surrounding staff instinctively lower their heads.The corridor fell deathly silent.Rowan blinked, clearly caught off guard by the sudden interruption. "I'm sorry, sir," he said politely. "I was only trying to do my job."Father's eyes swept over him from head to toe. So...you're the new physiotherapist.""Yes, sir. My name is Rowan Vale.""You're Rowan Vale.""I am."Father slowly walked toward us. Each measured step seemed to make the air heavier.When he finally stopped in front of Rowan, the difference between their Alpha and Omega pheromones became almost tangible."My son is perfectly capable of deciding whether he requires treatment. You needn't concern yourself with him."Rowan tightened his grip on the medical kit."With respect, sir... I'm the team's physiotherapist. If the captain is injured, then treating him is part of my responsibility."I glanced at Rowan.Did he have any idea who he was sp

Drake POV“Don't you dare, Lucas! You... you... arghhh!” Rowan practically screamed into the phone.“Haha. Four minutes remaining, Rowan.” Lucas's mocking laughter came through the speaker before the call abruptly ended.Rowan stared at the phone for a second before lowering it. His lips pressed together as he looked at me with those pleading eyes.“I know you're a big champion, Lord. Can you help me with this?”I almost laughed.A few minutes ago he had been threatening Lucas like he could tear the man's head off and now he was looking at me like I was his last hope.“Why should I help you when you were the one acting all bold a few minutes ago?”Now was the time to get back at him. Let's see how he begs.Instead, Rowan rolled his eyes. “Seriously? You're the top hockey star in this country, if not internationally, and you're going to be this stingy and ungrateful?”My mouth fell open slightly. Was he serious?His ex was threatening to destroy his family's precious jewelry and he was

Drake POVWe had barely pulled into his driveway when I noticed the broken flower vases scattered across the front yard.The flowers that had once lined the walkway were crushed beneath someone's feet, and several stems were strewn across the pavement.Rowan's head snapped toward the house. “Lucas!”He threw open the car door and stormed toward the entrance before I could even unbuckle my seatbelt.I remained behind for a moment with my hands resting on the steering wheel.Whatever had happened here was clearly more than a simple argument.I'd seen the way Rowan reacted when Lucas mentioned the jewelry, and now the state of his house only made the knot in my stomach tighten.Still, this was their business.Whatever history existed between them wasn't mine to interfere with.Let them sort it out themselves.I stepped out of the car and watched Rowan disappear through the doorway.I had barely taken a step toward the car when a sharp crash came from inside.Another sound followed with a
