The Puck Chase By G.N. Wright

Hockey is my life. It’s my only goal, my only escape, and everything was going according to plan. All I had to do was focus on the game, keep my head down, then get drafted into the NHL.

Starting my senior year at FU everything was as perfect as always, but sometimes just because you play on the same team, doesn’t mean you can play nice. And it turns out I enjoy taunting a certain teammate just as much as I enjoy being on the ice.

Daemon Forbes loathes me, but I love nothing more than fanning the flames of that hatred into an inferno.

Yet lately it seems that fire is burning even hotter than ever, and what I thought was a fun little game, is turning into something else entirely. It doesn’t matter that he hates me, it doesn’t even matter that we are teammates. No, it seems we were doomed the night we met and he found me occupied in his bedroom.

I know he has a dark past, and I know my sights should be on the ice and the life I want, but burning with him feels better than anything else.

But what do I do when the shadows that surround him threaten to consume me whole?
