Novel & Cerita Icebreaker The Book

I asked, watching my daughter practically vibrate with excitement. “They’re future Alphas, not newborns,” Tammy laughed, tossing her hair. “Taking them to the ice rink is a vacation for me, not work.” I signaled to the pack guards to follow them at a distance. Once the truck disappeared over the ridge, I retreated into the lodge and bolted the heavy timber door. My leg was throbbing, a dull ache reminding me of the silver-laced tragedy that had nearly claimed us both. On the low table sat a sleek white case. Charles Whitaker had left it. He called it his talisman—a token from his days as a rookie before he became the King of the Ice.

"You didn't have to wait on the street. I was coming up." "I was impatient. And I know how the security guards get around here when they see your truck." "Hop in." Santiago leaned over, catching a quick kiss before pulling into traffic. The second they hit the main road, he reached over and interlaced their fingers. "How was the ice?" Isaac asked. "Hell. Ruiz called us a bunch of two-toed sloths. Told us to wake the fuck up before the Capital Ice Dome turns into our grave tomorrow." "You'll bounce back," Isaac said. "You were just cocky from the road wins."

Harper POV I don’t plan to go to the Ice House. I just… end up there. It starts with me walking to clear my head. Then I realize I’m not heading back to the sorority. Then I realize my feet are very definitely taking me in one very specific direction. And then I turn the corner and see it. The Ice House is lit up like a stadium after a championship. Music thumps through the walls. People are everywhere. Cars lining the street. Someone is yelling. Someone is laughing. Someone is definitely already drunk.

He unlocked it. It was from Elias. “You have until tomorrow morning. Don’t forget, I’m the one who is handling your signing into the BIH Club.” Max’s fingers curled slightly as he read on. “And your captain? Noa? He’s a very good defender too. So decide fast. “Damn it…” Max muttered under his breath. His stomach tightened. He shoved the phone into his pocket. “What the fuck should I do about this?” He squatted, his thoughts spiralling. “Losing is bad but losing just once isn't that bad.” He told himself.

Until suddenly, I was standing in the rain, staring at the front door of a place that never judged me, realizing I might’ve broken someone in a way that couldn’t be undone. I was the fucking trigger. The accident. The past. His mother. Me. I closed my eyes, pressing the heels of my palms against them like I could block the images out. Rain kept pouring. It felt like the universe was mourning something. Maybe us. Maybe what we never even got to be. I stood there for what felt like forever. Long enough that the cold finally started to seep through my bones, into my skin, under the muscle and between the ribs. But I welcomed it. Deserved it.

Ericson uttered ecstatically to Denise as he reached for a bottle of champagne that was situated not far away from him ,inside the ice bucket"You are going to get blown the fuck away!" "OH MY GOD!"Denise squiled loudly , bouncing excitedly on the seat as she looked at Eric with wide eyes"Are we really going to LáBlanca? Like Dom LáBlanca?" "The one and the only"Ericson confirmed just as thrilled "OH FUCKK!"Denise screamed one more time, earning chuckles from the rest of us ,before turning her face towards Bani who was sitting between her and Nikhil"Did you hear that Bani? We are fucking going to LáBlanca! Oh god ,I've been wanting to go there like....since forever"

she screamed out fire and brimstone from her lungs, as if she had been heartbroken by her boyfriend. “ Aria, I didn’t mean to. It was a mistake..” my eyes dilated, as I saw the pains in her eyes, it was more than being heartbroken. Aria is so addicted to her books, that when you break her books you break her… you break lose memories that was meant to be hidden.

They were dark, his pupils dilated, and his face went pale as if he had seen a ghost. "It's so good to see you after all these years when you were away," Seema managed, then took a sip of her red wine. "You've been traveling around the world, haven't you? Anything interesting?" "Well, I've been going to Hawaii most of my time because of the beautiful people and the island." Devin also took his glass, and while taking a sip, he glanced in our direction. "It's to die for." Liam was holding a wine glass, and with just a blink, he broke it into pieces and startled the people around us.

Odd things that reminded me of a voodoo parlor. I didn’t touch any of those. No, what drew me in was a book at the far end. It was almost as if the book itself was calling my name, leading me towards it. I was a moth to a flame. By the time I stood right in front of it, I realized that the book was encased in glass. Curiously, I touched the glass, hoping I would find a way to open it but the second my skin made a contact, the glass shattered. Ryker who had been standing beside me quickly pulled me back. “What the bloody hell is that?”

The Elders summoned us. I showed up immediately. In front of the Council, the mate bond was broken—clean and final. I rested a hand over my still-flat belly. Exhaled. That same day, Jack posted a proposal video to Alice. She dropped a comment: [Thank you, time. Ten years of waiting, and now we've reached the peak of happiness!] The internet ate it up. 'True love triumphs.' Disgusting. I wondered if, when they stood before the Moon Priest and swore eternity, those vows would sting.
