*Being Published in 2022* ❝You can't deny that you're attracted to me, Nyx. Instead of fighting it, let's see what happens,❞ he grumbled, hands roaming my body. His thumb brushed my bottom lip. ❝Open up for me, baby.❞ -------------------------------------------------------- Nyx just can't seem to escape her eternal night, the very darkness she was named after. She tries to play her cards right, however, the outcome is a paradox. Whilst she obtains the results she wanted, it comes at the expense of some of her relationships. Angry at the world, her hatred is ravenous for none other than Beckham Hunt, captain of the ice hockey team. Beckham loathes Nyx Taylor after what she's done, that much he is certain of. Nobody boils his blood as she does and when she's hired to assist his team during championship season, he discerns that there's more to her story than meets the eye. She was always the villain in his story. But, suddenly she's the plot twist he never saw coming. Each glare and scowl and insult piles up, put under tremendous pressure by their mutual hatred. Yet, peeking through their fury clouded vision, they find the centre of their relationship blazing. Like two rival stars gravitating towards each other, Nyx and Beckham can do nothing when the law of attraction forces them to accept that passion doesn't always mean hatred, but perhaps something more.

"Just hold on to me, you won't fall." Adrian assures, as I cling to his arm "unless I fall first then we're both screwed." He adds and an overwhelming urge to strangle him takes over me. Before I can say anything, Cel's shriek makes me look across the ice rink "I could have died!" she glares at Ryver who throws his hands up in exasperation and fires back "Prove it! You barely slipped." Blair sighs, rubbing her temples as she mutters "This is why we can't do nice things." "This was the last cup they had" Art grins at the cup of steaming hot chocolate before opening his mouth again but it's Elle who speaks next "Do not say what you were going to say Art." I find myself agreeing with Blair as I look over the mess that is the result of combining our group with an activity like ice skating. "I read the most effective way to rid friction between a group of people is to have an or-" Caspian snickers at the horrified looks we throw him before Adrian cuts him off. "Okay all those in agreement to vote Casp out say-" he dosen't get to finish as Casp yells "I was joking!"

"You're weird." "Says the girl covered in dog saliva." His eyes run up and down my body which only makes me raise my chin in challenge. "Oh and you're also a jerk, might as well add pervert to the list while we're at it." Is my reply. With a blink of an eye, he moves closer to me, so close that his breath fans my cheek, swaying the strands framing my face. His eyes fall on my lips and he bites his bottom lip seductively making an urge to kiss him take over me. "Better watch that pretty little mouth of yours, sweet Blue." He pulls away and before I can regain my senses and posture, he's up and out of my room, Jupiter trailing behind him with a wagging tail. Brayden King, even the name screams trouble. ______________________ WATTPAD FEATURED
