The Hockey Alpha was My Childhood Sweetheart #Chapter 161: Worse Than It Seems
Lucas's voice cut through the buzzing in my ears, drawing my attention back to the present.My racing thoughts began to slow as I clenched his hand, grounding me.I tried to calm my tears, forcing myself to remember that I was okay. That I was safe."Shana, what's going on?" he asked, genuine concern etched across his features as he squeezed my hand back.I took a deep breath, trying to regain control over the strange sensations coursing through me. "I don't know what's going on," I admitted, my voice shaky. "I just felt that overwhelming feeling again.""Again?" Lucas asked. "What do you mean?""My body... it's been acting so strangely, especially since I shifted.""It's still happening?" Lucas's brow furrowed, his eyes filled with worry. "It feels like you're losing control?""Something like that," I said. "It's been happening a lot more lately...""So..." He seemed to be connecting the dots. "You were about to shift, weren't you?"I nodded, my throat feeling dry. Was that what that
The Hockey Alpha was My Childhood Sweetheart #Chapter 162: Clearing the Air
Embarrassment washed over me as I thought about Kendrick potentially reading all my desperate text messages to Lucas.Hopefully Lucas deleted those before he ever got the chance. My cheeks turned red at the thought."I know this is putting a lot of doubt and pressure on you, but we need to continue this in order for my father to help us," Lucas explained as he silently urged me."No, you're right," I said. "I think seeing you today has helped me understand everything. Not being in contact with you for the past week has been really difficult."Lucas's voice was filled with earnestness as he asked, "So, could you keep up with this for a little longer? Once my father fulfills his end of the deal and fixes your debt, things will go back to normal. I promise you."I met his gaze, my hesitation evident. I tried to detect any lies on his face but couldn't see any. I wanted to believe that things would return to normal again, but what even was normal?The White Wolf hung over my head every si
The Hockey Alpha was My Childhood Sweetheart #Chapter 163: Plans Rapidly Changing
Lucas POVWalking back into the company filled me with anxiety, even though I tried not to show it on my face.My father was nowhere to be seen and people continued to run amuck as I walked toward the elevators.I doubted that my father would just let this incident slide. He was going to question me about why Shana was here, and I needed to prepare myself for what I was going to say.As I went up to the top floor, I tried to sort through my thoughts. What would my father ask me? What answer would he like to hear?Once I finally reached the top, the elevator opened, and I began to walk to my office.Just as I was about to reach the door, I noticed a security guard standing right outside of it.The only person in this entire building who had security following him at all times was my father."Is he inside?" I asked the tall, burly guard.He gave me a curt nod instead of giving me a clear answer with his words.I took a deep steadying breath before pulling open the door.The tension hit
The Hockey Alpha was My Childhood Sweetheart #Chapter 164: Engagement Plans
Lucas POVAfter my father's latest request, I decided that Victoria and I needed to meet to discuss our plan further.I had a feeling she would be just as surprised as me, and I hoped she wouldn't want to call off our agreement. It was already a lot to ask of her and now, we had to speed up the process.I was thinking of visiting Victoria at her house but decided it would best to go somewhere away from prying eyes. Her parents weren't my biggest fans.Victoria suggested meeting at a small coffee shop on the other side of town. It would be the best place for us to go talk without someone we knew finding out.As we sat at a booth near the back corner, sipping our lattes, the weight of the situation weighed on on me."I'm guessing you don't have good news since you wanted to meet so urgently," Victoria said as she stirred her latte with a spoon."No really," I blew out a breath. "My father had made some recent... adjustments to our original agreement?""You mean, he's making his own rule
The Hockey Alpha was My Childhood Sweetheart #Chapter 165: Morning Training Session
I couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement as I walked toward the hockey locker rooms where Lucas wanted to meet.It had been such a long time since the two of us had trained together. I was excited to work on myself and show him any new abilities I had, and I was equally as excited to see him.After seeing him in person and talking thing through, I felt much more at ease. It seemed that Lucas was having a rough time with everything, just like me.That was all the reassurance that I needed.As I stepped down the hallway, I spotted Lucas already waiting for me wearing his work out clothes.When he heard me approaching, a smile lit up his face. Again, it felt like a weight had been lifted off my chest from just seeing him again."Hey there," I greeted him, my voice bubbling with excitement."Hey there, beautiful," Lucas replied as his blue eyes locked on mine. There was a mischievous glint in his eyes, and I couldn't help but blush under his gaze.Lucas grabbed ahold of my hand as w
The Hockey Alpha was My Childhood Sweetheart #Chapter 166: Away From Prying Eyes
The past week is a blur of kisses, laughs, and hard work as Lucas and I meet every morning at Shadow High's training facility.I've felt my mood improved significantly thanks to how much time I've been able to spend with Lucas.He was trying to make sure that I felt special and appreciated every time he saw me. Every morning he'd greet me with a "Hello, beautiful" and wrap me in his arms for a hug.I felt better than I had in weeks since finding out about my wolf and my father's betrayal. Not only mentally and emotionally, but also physically.It seemed impossible to think that a few days of working out would be able to make such a change in my physical strength. Even Lucas mentioned it to me this morning as we finished our session."I can tell your body is craving the need to exert itself." Lucas also noted how toned I looked. "Don't you feel a difference?""My mind feels so clear," I told him. "Ever since we started training this week, I haven't felt any strangeness or overwhelming
The Hockey Alpha was My Childhood Sweetheart #Chapter 167: Trying to Change
Lucas's lips met mine, and it seemed like everything else in the world melted away."I know," he agreed, pulling his lips away. "Things have felt so chaotic lately, it's nice to forget and have fun for once."I nodded in agreement, playing with the ripples in the water. "We need to have more moments like this. Just you and me, away from everything else."Just as I was opening up, Lucas pulled another goofy expression."Stop! What are you doing?" I giggled.His grin was infectious. "Trying to earn a smile, or maybe even a laugh. Looks like I won."I tried to pretend like I was unimpressed with his tactics, but the corners of my mouth betrayed me as they lifted into a smile. "You're such a goofball."Right now, it felt like the connection between us was stronger than ever.It was such a contrast to the way I had been feeling. Moments like these reminded me of how much I cared for Lucas.We eventually left the water and started getting dressed again but the cold breeze against my skin ma
The Hockey Alpha was My Childhood Sweetheart #Chapter 168: Right or Wrong Thing?
Lucas POVMy father had decided to hold Victoria and I's engagement party at an elegant rooftop restaurant downtown that Victoria's parents owned.Instead of glowing golden chandeliers, the stars in the sky were the highlight, creating a lavish setting.Even though my father said that he wanted this to be a small gathering of people, I'd never seen so many people before in my life.It didn't help that I hardly knew any of them.A sea of well-dressed Alphas mingled, their snotty and obnoxious conversations filled the air. The conversations only surrounded topics of business, status, and connections.It was typical of them to continue to network, even at a more personal event such as this. This was to be expected.As much as I hated events like this and how fake everyone was, I had promised my father that I would be on my best behavior tonight. I didn't want to embarrass him in front of all of these people.It was one thing to do it in the private of our own home, but I didn't want to m
