Chapter 10 (Nathaniel's POV)

"What did you do to Valey?"

I was just trying to enjoy my morning coffee when Benjamin and Sean pretty much broke into my house.

Well, actually they had the key since we exchanged them a few days after meeting each other. It was easier that way when we needed someone. Because many times we were playing music too loud to even register someone ringing a bell let alone knocking.

But right now I was regretting the decision to give them my keys.

Not because they were wrong, but because I fucking had no idea.

But let's play it safe for now, shall we? Sure we were friends but Valey was their friend long before me.

"What do you mean Benji? She is pissed at me on most occasions simply because I am breathing the same air as she is."

Judging by the deathly glare both guys threw my way I'd say the time was a bit different.

Honestly, I had no idea how pissed she was after yesterday. The kiss was amazing. I can tell you that much.

I've had my share of kisses in my life

    Chapter 11 (Valentina's POV)"Come on Valey! He sent you those notes he promised. So what if he was teasing you? After all, I would say you signed up for this yourself. Stop putting him and the whole team through hell because his mouth got the better of him. And honestly, it's not like you are different in that department. How many times did your fast tongue get you into trouble?"When Anabelle was scolding me she did it perfectly and did not miss a beat.And I know she had a point, but still, I was not ready to just forgive him.Also, I had to remind myself more and more that I was supposed to hate him, and that was not a good sign. Not at all.Why was it so hard to hate him? And don't you dare think about me developing any kind of mushy feelings for him! Because I am not. At least I was telling myself that regularly.He was a smoking-hot guy. I knew that and he knew it as well, the weird part though was he never used it to his advantage. I watched him at games, at practice, and when

    Chapter 12 (Nathaniel's POV)She forgave us!Sorry for yelling.But I am still trying to get my head around the fact that she forgave us and was willing to give us another chance.Now to get some light on the matter at hand.We were discussing our plan of action the whole day long trying to come up with something solid.And we finally came up with this. Meaning we were ready to beg on our knees for her forgiveness which was kind of not an option but the actual picture as it turns out.But nothing was above us today.As I realized I missed her like crazy, so did Sean and Benjamin. And so everything was set into motion. The final plan: do anything possible to make up for our mistakes.We also decided not to pull any more pranks on her. At least not one of these huge proportions.So all that planning and discussing brought us here to the point where we are now. In a group hug with Valentina in the middle.Now since we are touching and feeling and all that comes with it I have a confession

    Chapter 13 (Valentina's POV)I woke up feeling too hot for an early morning.Now the fact that I was hot was weird enough. I am one of those people that are cold in all seasons. Even in the summertime my feet and hands were cold.But the weirdness didn't stop there. As I tried to move something heavy stopped all my movements.What the actual fuck?When I tried to open my eyes my head started pounding like I was hosting a drumming contest.Let's count now.I was feeling hot, I couldn't move, and I had a headache. You can understand why I was getting irritated right?Suddenly that weight behind me moved and something poked me in my lower back. It was starting to be a bit more clear what was happening.The good part was that I was still fully clothed as it seems.But still, I had to remember what happened yesterday.I remember the boys made a whole show while apologizing, I forgave them, and we were drinking wine and having fun.Somewhere in the middle of all that the memories started to

    Chapter 14 (Nathaniel's POV)You know that feeling when you got caught as a kid and you got those nervous butterflies while you anxiously awaited the final verdict?Well, that's how I felt right now with Anabelle, Benjamin, and Seth staring at us with those knowing smiles on their faces.They all had their arms crossed over their chest and I just knew they wouldn't let us forget what they saw anytime soon."So, are you love birds ready for breakfast or should we come back a few hours later?" Anabelle asked us with a huge amount of sarcasm in her voice, while both guys tried really hard to stifle their laughs.Honestly, once the first shock went away I was fighting my own fit of laughter as well, especially when I made the mistake of looking at Valentina and saw her mortified face.Judging by her expression you would think she got caught murdering someone, not making out with me.Ouch. It was a bit of a painful comparison for my ego.But in a way, it was also the right one. My brain wo

    Chapter 15 (Valentina's POV)Now hold on for a second.How do I manage to end up in this kind of position every few hours?I had no awkward run-ins in so many years, but then this infuriating man comes along and here I am in a compromising position for the third time in a matter of days. Well in a matter of minutes since the last time to be exact.But damn do his lips feel good. And he knows what he is doing as well.Oh, Valentina you stupid girl. Of course, he does. He is a hockey player after all.His hand was tangled in my hair but not in a painful way, and I couldn't help but tangle my hands in his as well. Each time his kisses started to become faint and soft I pulled on his hair so I got more action.This time though I was determined no one would disturb the action.So I pushed off him and if I said he was shocked it would be an understatement. "Get on the bed before I change my mind!" I wasn't even halfway through with my sentence when I was already locking my bedroom door. I

  • The queen of icy heart   Doomed from the start

    Chapter 16 (Nathaniel's POV)Waking up next to a warm body always scared me. Don't ask me about the reasoning behind this fear because I have no idea. But since I can remember I had this weird fear of commitment. So I never dated any girl. At least not exclusively. There were no sleepovers, either we met at her place, got down to business, and then I left or we met at my place and she left afterward. Either way, like I said no women slept over at my place, and neither did I at theirs.So when I woke up this morning and didn't feel any fear when I realized Valentina was wrapped around me I was shocked, to say the least.But I couldn't really lie. It felt nice. And instead of running away, I wrapped my arm around her a bit tighter and just enjoyed the feeling.As I was listening to the calming bit of Valentina's heart I slowly drifted back into dreamland.Next time though when I woke up, the spot next to me was empty and cold, but nice smells were coming from the kitchen and my stomach

    Chapter 17 (Valentina's POV)"Go Hawks! Get them, Nathaniel! No, no Benjamin, catch that one!"Uhm yes. That's the life of a sports reporter. Well, mine and Anabelle's because she is as loud as I am. But she mostly cheers for Seth, where I try to stay neutral. The main word in this sentence is trying.Since I and Nathaniel kind of became a thing I realized his name pops out of my mouth more often than other names.I know it's weird.But somehow I just can't hate him. I can't even pretend to hate him anymore.And he became a pretty important part of my everyday life.What he doesn't know though is that I am secretly putting every detail he tells me and I find interesting into my notes so I can turn it into that one article that would bring me a better job, that job on national television.It is backstabbing and sneaky I know, but I will tell him before I publish it.So far I have a good handle on everything but my boss is kind of pressuring me into submitting some kind of evidence that

  • The queen of icy heart   What is going on?

    Chapter 18 (Nathaniel's POV)As we finished the game we went straight for the locker room. We won this time but our game was still not the best it could be.And the weakest part of our team was definitely Sanches. He was so self-absorbed and arrogant on the ice and of it as well. Claiming yourself to be the hockey god but still not giving any results on the ice was arrogance in my opinion.And of the ice, it only got worse. It was as if he thought he was the only man with a dick between his legs.So of course I was not in any kind of hurry when Sanches got dressed first and left the locker room. I wanted to leave as much space between me and him as possible.He was an enormous pain in our asses, even coach Irving couldn't stand the sight of him.But he said a week or so ago that he can't really get rid of him without good reason. Looks like his daddy was some big shot in hockey. So it seems we just need him to fuck up something. And let's hope that happens sooner rather than later.

  • The queen of icy heart   EPILOGUE

    Chapter 27 (Loraine’s POV) epilogue Some years later… “Andrew! The girls will be here any minute, could you get Samuel ready for me please?” Before you make any assumptions let us make something clear. Samuel is our son, and he is three years old. As weird and unthinkable as it might sound, all girls gave birth to a child in the same year. Sure, there were differences, Valentina and Nathaniel had three kids. The first one was a little girl named Daisy, who was not so little anymore since she was nine years old already. Second was a boy named Gareth, he was six years old and the last was Penelope who was three years old as well as our Samuel. Then there was Anabelle and Seth. They had two kids, twins to be exact. A boy and a girl, Samantha, and Sam, they were three years old as well. If we move forward, we have Anastasia and Benjamin, they had just one kid the same as me and Andrew, and the little three years old princesses’ name was Lory. The next in line would be Malcolm and Mandy

    Chapter 26 (Andrew’s POV)We were on our way to the airport and of course, with Malcolm in the car we were driving over the speed limit and if a police officer pulled us over there would be hell to pay once he realized who the driver was, but mostly no one dared stop Malcolm, even the new guys knew his car and just waved when he passed. But in my opinion, we were still not driving fast enough. I wanted to be at the airport already, deal with the bastard and wrap my Loraine in my arms where I knew I could keep her safe.But as much as I wanted to yell and rant and be a smart ass, I knew I was thinking irrationally so I rather just sat back and kept my mouth shut. That and the fact that Malcolm threatened to throw me out of the car if I dared be loud.Thankfully we arrived at the airport just when my patience was running low. But as we stopped the car, I could not believe my eyes. There was a plane, ready to take off at any moment, but the stairs were still pulled out and firmly on the

    Chapter 25 (Loraine’s POV)Either these people were stupid, or they just assumed I knew London so well that I did not need to have my eyes covered while we were driving to the airport. Or maybe it was just the fact that they were so sure I would not be going anywhere except board the plane to Washington.Too bad for them because I had every intention to run away as fast as my legs could carry me, especially now that I knew two of six guys were on my side. Two of those guys that were not on my side are going into the plane’s cabin to make sure everything is set up and two will be completely oblivious to my attempt thanks to my accomplices. I still had no idea what their moto was, but I was not about to ask them since I was just happy to have someone willing to help me get away without a need to kill someone.You see all my self defense classes and so on that I was taking while on the run were in case, I found some place I want to stay and not run anymore, but before London there was no

  • The queen of icy heart   who took Loraine?

    Chapter 24 (Andrew’s POV)“WHAT DO YOU MEAN SHE IS FUCKING GONE?! YOU STUPID BUNCH OF IMBECILS! HOW COULD YOU LET HER SLIP OUT OF THE CLUB WITHOUT ANY OF YOU NOTICING!?” As you can see, saying I was pissed would be a huge understatement, because I was livid! Somehow, while we were celebrating our win in the office with Malcolm and the girls, and a few minutes later with their boyfriends as well, Loraine managed to slip out of the club and disappeared into thin air.If you would tell me a week ago, she disappeared I would probably believe she ran away like she did every time in the past eight years when something or someone got too close to her and her heart, but today I was sure she did not run away. She promised me that she would not run away, and she would stay with me for as long as I wanted her and on the other hand, the fact that Rodriguez was just leaving my club when Loraine mysteriously disappeared just did not stop nagging me. So, I had my suspicion that he had something to d

  • The queen of icy heart   not alone

    Chapter 23 (Loraine’s POV)Today was the first time in my whole life that I remember standing up to myself for as long as I can remember. Not once when I was married was, I willing to do so. I just swallowed everything that was thrown my way. I never yelled at the man or talked back, I never told him my opinion, never objected to his decisions about my life, nothing.And the feeling was kind of refreshing and new. It felt amazing.Now, you see I stopped smoking years ago, it was bad for my health and all that and honestly it was just an expensive habit. But at this moment I felt like I was on top of the world and decided to treat myself to one cigarette you could say for old times’ sake, so I can finally close the door on every bad decision I made in the past.I was at the back entrance when I heard steps approaching but I thought it was sure one of the girls or maybe Andrew, so I stayed put and did not even turn around to see who it was, a big mistake.Next thing I know someone was h

    Chapter 22 (Andrew’s POV)The thought of pinching myself and seeing if I was even awake crossed my mind, but nothing felt as good even in dreams as Loraine felt in my arms. She said it. Those fears I had for the past few weeks since I realized I fell for this woman melted away like ice cream on a hot sunny day.Now the only thing left was for us to deal with Rodriguez once and for all. But that was not mine decision, I stopped kissing her and moved a bit away but still kept our foreheads pressed close together, “Are you ready to deal with the demons of the past?”She gave me a nod which was a bit hesitant, but honestly if I was in her shoes and had to deal with someone like Rodriguez, I would be hesitant as well. I took one of her hands in mine and gave her a squeeze to show her that she was not alone.As we rounded the corner, I could not help it but look around and once again it surprised me how self-assured the man really was. He took only five men with him and all of them were in

  • The queen of icy heart   explanation

    Chapter 21 (Loraine’s POV)How could he do that? If I had to guess, from what I saw in the office I would say Andrew knew about my past and he knew it well. So first of all, he was hiding the fact that he knows about everything from me, or maybe I can find an excuse for him and say he just found out, but I doubt that since he has been a bit weird for the past few weeks and especially today. But I am willing to tell myself anything to feel a bit better, and right now I needed to believe Andrew did not betray me like everyone else in my life did.At the moment I was sitting by the river that was right next to the club, and yes, I know I did not go far from everything, but it was far enough that Rodriguez would not think I came here, he probably thought that I ran away already like I always do when he finds me, but this time was different. I had friends, I had a job that I liked, and I hope they cared for me as well. I had a good life, and I was actually looking forward to the future. I

  • The queen of icy heart   I will not lose her

    Chapter 20 (Andrew’s POV)The moment Loraine barged into my office I knew something was going to go awfully wrong and as usual I was proven right when the asshole opened his mouth.Thankfully me and Malcolm seem to be on the same page because when Loraine ran out of my office as if she was on fire, we both jumped to our feet, but since I was in my usual seat and Malcolm was right next to Rodriguez, he was the one that landed a solid punch to his face and probably broke his nose in the process judging by the crunching sound that could be heard, “You idiot! You just broke my nose! What in the ever-loving hell is wrong with you? Do you have any idea who you are dealing with? I can have you erased from the surface of the earth in a moment!” technically, if we were not who we are, he would be right, but since we were one of the strongest mafia organizations in the world, well, sadly for him, he was wrong. Sure, we were operating on legal grounds, but that was actually a plus on our side, b

  • The queen of icy heart   when the past catches up with you

    Chapter 19 (Loraine’s POV) Something did not feel right. I could not put my finger on it, but my gut was telling me to go back to the club. Why? I had no idea but the opportunity to do so presented itself when Mandy asked me to put the car keys into my purse, because I was the only one that remembered to take a big enough purse to put in my wallet, phone and all the girly necessities but still had some space to put in the keys as well. Now I just had to come up with a plan to get away from them with a believable excuse, ran to the parking lot and drive back to the club so this awful feeling would go away. Even if I drove for nothing, I would still feel better if I followed my instincts and honestly, I doubted my gut was warning me for nothing. I know to some people it might sound stupid to follow your gut or your instincts, but those two things saved me more than once in the past years while I was being on the run. So, there was no way I would ignore it. As we walked around the sho
