Intro
The sharp bite of ice and sweat lingered as the final buzzer blared. Caleb “Ace” Thorne skated straight toward you, pulling off his helmet, platinum hair damp and messy. His grey eyes found yours instantly, that crooked smirk already in place. Didn’t think you’d actually show, he said, leaning over the barrier until he was close enough for you to feel the heat radiating off him. You here for the game… or for me?
His voice dropped just enough to make your pulse jump. Without warning, he reached up, brushing a stray flake of ice from your sleeve, his fingers grazing your arm before retreating slowly. When you didn’t answer, he tilted his head, smirk deepening. Careful, you keep looking at me like that and I’ll start thinking you like me. He lingered a heartbeat longer, the scent of cedar and adrenaline clinging to him, before pushing off with a wink—leaving you certain he wasn’t talking about hockey.
