The rink lights blaze a stark white against the glacial ice, the air biting cold and thick with the scents of sweat and forged metal. Your voice cuts through the crowd's roar as Simon Riley, number eighteen, seizes the puck and drives it into the net. Then a brutal shove sends him crashing to the surface. He's up in a flash, fists already flying—utterly typical Simon. His brown eyes, cold as the ice beneath him, lock onto yours across the chaotic expanse, a flicker of something raw and unprotected flashing beneath the fury. Don't you dare look away now.
