The Hockey Alpha was My Childhood Sweetheart #Chapter 267: Ending it Once and for All
LUCAS POVAs I stormed out of my father's company, frustration boiled inside me like a pot that was ready to overflow. But before I could put too much distance between us, I heard his voice calling after me."Lucas, wait!"I stopped in my tracks, turning reluctantly to face my father, who was striding towards me with a determined look in his eyes."What now?" I snapped, unable to keep the bitterness out of my tone. "Didn't I make my point clear.""I won't tolerate you leaving our conversation like that. I'm your father and I demand some respect."I scoffed, finding him ridiculous.I folded my arms across my chest, my patience wearing thin. "What is it now, Dad? More lectures about how I'm ruining the family legacy?"His features hardened, his voice taking on an edge of frustration. "You know why I'm doing this, Lucas. Ever since you started spending time at that palace, you've become more... defiant.""I've always been defiant," I reasoned. "I'm just finally sick of all of your scheme
The Hockey Alpha was My Childhood Sweetheart #Chapter 268: Revenge is Sweet
EDWIN POVAs I stood in the shadows of the parking lot, hidden from view, I listened intently to the heated exchange between Lucas and my uncle Kendrick.For weeks, I had been lurking around the Busch offices, waiting for the perfect opportunity to exploit any cracks in Lucas's facade.I knew that his rebellious nature would eventually lead to conflict with Kendrick, and I had positioned myself strategically to witness it firsthand.Lucas's lack of ambition and his refusal to conform to Kendrick's expectations only reinforced my belief that I was the rightful heir to the family empire.I couldn't comprehend why Kendrick continued to favor his son over me, especially when I possessed the drive and determination necessary to lead the company to greater heights.But now, as I listened to their argument, I realized that this was my chance to seize control of my destiny.With Lucas's rebellion destabilizing the family dynamics, I saw an opportunity to step into the spotlight and assert my
The Hockey Alpha was My Childhood Sweetheart #Chapter 269: An Extreme Plan
EDWIN POVAs my father outlined his plan, a knot formed in my stomach.He wanted to poison Kendrick.Poisoning Kendrick seemed extreme... even for us, but as he continued to lay out the details, I couldn't deny the appeal of finally taking control of the family business."But isn't that illegal?" I interjected, voicing my concerns. "What if we get caught?""Don't be silly, Edwin. We won't get caught.""But how can you be sure? Kendrick always has security personnel around him at all times."My father chuckled, a sinister gleam in his eyes. "Leave that to me, Edwin. I have everything under control. We'll make sure Kendrick doesn't suspect a thing."His assurance did little to ease my growing sense of unease. "But what if someone finds out? What if we're caught? The consequences could be catastrophic.""We won't be caught," he repeated firmly, his tone brooking no argument. "Besides, I'll take full responsibility if anything goes wrong. You won't be implicated."His confidence was both
The Hockey Alpha was My Childhood Sweetheart #Chapter 270: Training Jokes
Two to three months had swiftly passed since I first stepped foot into the palace for my training sessions.The routine had become almost second nature to me now, each day blending seamlessly into the next as I honed my skills under Prince Alexander's watchful eye.Training had been going well.Despite occasional appearances by Dr. Mills, his presence no longer filled me with the same unease it once did. Lucas and I had grown accustomed to his sporadic attendance, even if it left us puzzled at timesProfessor Black was never able to find much more information on him... which made me feel nervous at first, but once I saw that Dr. Mills wasn't a threat, I began to ignore his existence.I truly believed he was just there to make sure nothing went amiss. He was a doctor after all."Isn't it strange?" I mused to Lucas one day as we exited the training grounds together. "Dr. Mills seems to come and go as he pleases. One day he's there, and the next he's nowhere to be found."Lucas shrugged,
The Hockey Alpha was My Childhood Sweetheart #Chapter 271: Meeting Old Friends
As graduation day approached, excitement buzzed through the air like electricity, filling every corner of our lives with anticipation and nervous energy.I hadn't been training at the palace for a few days now, and strangely, a small part of me was missing it.Mostly, I think I just missed Alex and his humor.We had become friends over these past few months, and he's taught me so much about myself and my strength. Not having him around or seeing him on a daily basis made me feel off.But school has done a good job of keeping me distracted. These were moments I should've been soaking in and celebrating, and I wasn't taking any of it for granted.Lucas and I had been busy preparing for the big day, from choosing our outfits for the graduation dance to making sure we had everything we needed for the ceremony.Shadow High held a graduation party every year for it's graduating class, and this year it was finally our turn. It was one last way for us to be together before going off into the
The Hockey Alpha was My Childhood Sweetheart #Chapter 272: The Future Ahead
Lucas and I headed back to Grandma Jo's house after spending time with James and Victoria. I couldn't help but feel a sense of contentment.It had been so nice catching up with our friends, laughing, reminiscing about the past, and sharing our thoughts of the future.Hearing them talk about their plans left me feeling a bit... out of place. On one hand, I could relate with them and on the other hand I couldn't.Their plans for the future were clear and purposeful, each step carefully mapped out. But for me, uncertainty loomed like a shadow, casting doubt on where my path would lead.I couldn't share my aspirations, my dreams, or the complexities of my life with them. They had no idea about the responsibilities I now held as the White Wolf, and as much as Lucas was there for me, he couldn't fully understand it either.I felt torn between two worlds, struggling to reconcile the ordinary with the extraordinary, the mundane with the extraordinary. My life was a delicate balancing act, a c
The Hockey Alpha was My Childhood Sweetheart #Chapter 273: Graduation Ceremony
The sun was still shining brightly as Lucas and I stepped out of Grandma Jo's house, dressed in our graduation attire.Grandma Jo stood on the porch, a proud smile on her face, as she snapped pictures of us with her old camera."Smile, you two! You both look so grown up," she exclaimed, her voice filled with pride. "Who would've thought that the two of you would be graduation together after all these years?"I smiled as I looked up at Lucas, wondering the same thing. Lucas sensed my eyes on his and looked down at me."Oh! That's a good picture!" she cheered, snapping away on her camera. "Don't move!""Grandma Jo, how many pictures are you gonna take?" Lucas teased, grinning at me."Just a few more, dear," Grandma Jo replied, not missing a beat. "I want to capture every moment of this special day!""Shana's gonna have more photos than the entire yearbook at this rate," Lucas joked, nudging me playfully.I rolled my eyes, but couldn't help but laugh at his comment. "Hey, at least we'll
The Hockey Alpha was My Childhood Sweetheart #Chapter 274: The Truth Revealed
We tried our best to keep our backs turned from the reporters as we continued talking, trying to ignore the flashing cameras."You guys won't believe it," Victoria said, her eyes shining with excitement. "I received my parents' forgiveness right before the ceremony.""What? Really?" I asked, my eyes shifting to James who looked equally as excited."Yeah, after we all had that conversation I decided to go speak to my parents. We argued for a long time and my parent's were being super stubborn about the whole thing. When I reminded them that I would basically be dead if it weren't for James, they started to listen."That's amazing, Victoria!" I exclaimed, genuinely happy for her. "I'm so glad to hear that your parents finally came around."James gave Victoria a proud smile, wrapping an arm around her shoulders. "See, I told you they'd come around eventually. They just needed some time to see things from our perspective."Victoria smiled, leaning into James's embrace. "Thank you, both of

TWO MONTHS LATERThe sun cast a warm glow over the royal gardens of the Ethereal Palace as Lucas and I stood across from each other, ready to exchange our vows in front of our closest friends and family.Grandma Jo, Victoria, and James stood by our sides, along with King Alex, Professor Black, and Liam. Alex actually insisted on officiating our wedding which took some convincing. Lucas wasn't too keen on the idea."Imagine being able to tell people that the Alpha King was the one who married you two," Alex had said, wiggling his eyebrows at Lucas. "Doesn't that make for a good story?"Lucas rolled his eyes playfully. "Yeah, a story we'd have to explain for the rest of our lives. No thanks."I chuckled, patting Alex on the shoulder. "I think it's a fantastic idea, Your Majesty."Alex grinned, his eyes twinkling with mischief. "I know, isn't it? I do love a good story. Perhaps I'll write a book about it."Lucas shot me a sideways glance, a playful glint in his eye. "I don't know about y
The Hockey Alpha was My Childhood Sweetheart #Chapter 298: Forever and Ever
I had the brilliant idea of surprising Lucas will all the new skills I had learned.I'd been so busy study, that I was always too tired when I got home.Showing him the magic I had learned was the best way for me to show him just how much I had grown. With a quick spell and a flick of my wrist, I conjured a portal right in our living room, ready to transport myself back home.As I stepped through the portal, the familiar rush of energy enveloped me, and with a flourish, I emerged in our cozy living room."Lucas?" I called out, unable to contain my excitement.Lucas, who had been engrossed in studying for his upcoming exams, jumped in surprise at the sound of my voice. "Shana? What... How did you... What's going on?"I couldn't help but laugh at his bewildered expression. "Surprise!" I exclaimed, grinning from ear to ear.His eyes widened in disbelief as he took in the sight of me standing there, a portal shimmering behind me. "Shana, that's incredible! How did you do that?""I've been
The Hockey Alpha was My Childhood Sweetheart #Chapter 297: Spells, Magic, and Portals
Studying the ancient text of the White Wolf book became my daily ritual.With each passing day, I delved deeper into its pages, absorbing the knowledge and wisdom it held within.When I had told Lucas that the book was finally unlocked, he was ecstatic, and recommended that Professor Black teach me more.Thanks to Lucas, Professor Black had become somewhat of a teacher, helping me decipher the intricate spells and teachings hidden within its ancient script.Even though he couldn't see the pages himself, I practiced rewriting and retracing everything for him to the best of my ability so that he could help me."Professor Black, I need your help with this passage," I'd say, flipping through the pages of the book as he leaned in to listen attentively. Together, we would dissect the ancient text, discussing its implications and applications in our world.His involvement in my studies caused him to visit the palace much more frequently.Alex quickly recognized the value of having Professor
The Hockey Alpha was My Childhood Sweetheart #Chapter 296: The Future for a White Wolf
I stood before the locked White Wolf book, a sense of determination washed over me.This was the moment I had been waiting for—a chance to unlock the secrets hidden within its pages and delve into the mysteries of my life.This book had the ability to tell me more about who I was and what I was meant to do.Suddenly, all the trials and tribulations that I had been through in the past year felt worth it for this moment. I deserved this. I deserved to know who I was.With Alex by my side, I took a deep breath, steeling myself for what was to come. This was no ordinary book—it held the key to unlocking my true potential as the chosen White Wolf."Are you ready?" Alex asked, his voice filled with anticipation.I nodded, my heart pounding with excitement."You've got this, Shana," he said, his voice filled with confidence. "You were born for this moment.""Let's do this."With a steady hand, Alex pricked his finger, drawing a small drop of blood. I did the same, allowing a single tear to f
The Hockey Alpha was My Childhood Sweetheart #Chapter 295: The Best Surprise
As I stepped into the grand halls of the palace, I couldn't shake the feeling of anticipation swirling within me.King Alexander had called me here, promising a surprise, and I couldn't help but wonder what it could be.It wasn't unusual for him to call me to the palace, but what he had said over the phone had me nervous."Liam's going to come pick you up to take you to the palace. I have a huge surprise for you," he had said."I hate surprises," I replied, already starting to chew on my bottom lip."Too bad," Alex said and I could practically see the smile that was on his lips. "See you soon!"As I awaited Liam's arrival, my mind raced with nervousness.Surprises were not my forte, especially when they involved King Alexander.He was a wild card and always seemed to be up to no good.Yet, despite my apprehension and hesitation, there was a flicker of excitement building within me.What could Alex have planned for me that needed to be such a secret?When Liam finally arrived, I couldn
The Hockey Alpha was My Childhood Sweetheart #Chapter 294: New Role in the Palace
A FEW MONTHS LATERThe warm breeze brushed against my skin as I made my way through the palace gardens, the vibrant colors of the flowers blooming all around me.Even though Alex had called the royal gardens overrated, it was my favorite place here.I always found myself walking through the rows and bushes of flowers.It had been a few months since the tumultuous events that had changed the course of our lives, and yet, the memories still felt fresh in my mind.Despite not moving into the palace, I found myself spending more and more time there, drawn by the sense of duty and responsibility that now rested on my shoulders.As King Alexander's right hand, along with Liam, I had taken on a new role within the kingdom, providing support and guidance to the young monarch as he navigated the challenges of ruling a kingdom.The transition hadn't been easy, but together, we had managed to weather the storm, leaning on each other for support as we forged ahead.As White Wolf, I commanded a le

I rushed through the hospital corridors, my heart pounding in my chest as I navigated my way to the room where Lucas and Kendrick were.The sound of my footsteps echoed off the sterile walls, each step bringing me closer to the moment I had been anxiously awaiting.Finally, I reached the door and pushed it open, stepping inside to find Lucas sitting beside his father's bed.Relief flooded through me as I saw Kendrick. His eyes were closed, but I could tell that he was just asleep and not completely unconscious as the machines beeped steadily."Lucas, I'm here," I said softly, crossing the room to stand beside him. "I got your text. How's he doing?"Lucas looked up at me, a grateful smile spreading across his face as he stood up. "Shana? What are you doing here?""What do you mean?" I asked with a frown. "I had to come as soon as I could once I found out he was awake. Are you okay?""I'm so glad you're here," he replied, his voice filled with emotion. He pulled me into a hug and I sque
The Hockey Alpha was My Childhood Sweetheart #Chapter 292: Reconnecting with Family
LUCAS POV "Graduation is almost here and I want to go to Hawking University to play hockey. It's what I've always wanted," I continued, hoping my father could finally understand things from my point of view.But my father's expression darkened, a shadow of disappointment crossing his features as he shook his head slowly."Lucas, I've spent my life building this company," he said, his voice tinged with frustration. "I thought I could count on you to carry on the legacy."I couldn't help feeling a surge of guilt wash over me as I struggled to find the right words to express my feelings."I appreciate your confidence in me, father," I replied, my voice trembling slightly. "It's been difficult navigating everything since you've been gone, but I feel as though I was able to handle it because of everything you've taught me. But having this experience, I'm not sure if I'm fully ready to commit to such a big responsibility."My father listened as I poured out my heart, his expression unreada
The Hockey Alpha was My Childhood Sweetheart #Chapter 291: Awake and Healthy
LUCAS POV My phone rang with an unfamiliar number, and my heart skipped a beat as I answered it, the anticipation clawing at the edges of my mind.I had gotten used to answering unknown callers over the past few weeks ever since I took over the business for my father. He got far more calls than I imagined, and many of them were scammers trying to steal information from him.I was already exhausted, ready to go home for the day. I didn't want to deal with any more problems today, and that included talking to a stranger on the phone that just wanted to play games with me."Hello?" I said, my voice tight with apprehension."L-Lucas?" came the hesitant voice on the other end of the line. The voice cleared. "Hello, is this Lucas Busch?""This is he," I replied, ready to give this person a piece of my mind. "Is there something I can help you with?""Yes, I'm your father's doctor and I have some news to share with you."I stilled, hearing the words, hoping that it wasn't a prank.My father
