MILES’ POV

The way Noah is staring at me right now, you’d think I just suggested we rob a fucking bank together instead of fake a relationship.

Then again, I can’t exactly blame her.

If the person who clearly hates you suddenly proposes pretending to be your boyfriend or girlfriend, shock would probably be the most reasonable reaction.

I’d had much the same reaction yesterday when Noah kissed me out of nowhere in front of my entire team.

For a few seconds, I’d been too stunned to process what

  • A Deal With The King of Ice   033: The Thin Line

    MILES’ POV“GOAL! ASHFORD TAKES IT! THREE—TWO! WHAT A FINISH TO THE GAME!”The commentator’s voice is almost drowned out by the roar of the crowd, but I barely hear any of it.I fucking did it!With six seconds left on the clock, I actually put the puck past their goalie.“We fucking did it!”Someone slams into me from behind, and suddenly I’m being grabbed, shoved, and dragged into a pile of celebrating teammates.“Let’s fucking go!”“That’s our captain!”“Holy shit, Miles!”I laugh, breathless, as the guys jump all over me.We fucking won!Across the ice, the Wolves begin skating toward their bench. Logan passes me on his way off and stops just long enough to hold out his glove.“Hell of a game.”I return the handshake firmly.“Yeah. You too.”He gives me a small smile. “See you at the top.”“See you there.”He skates away with his team, and I watch him for a second.Playing against Logan is never easy. The guy knows exactly what he’s doing on the ice, and he’s good enough to make y

  • A Deal With The King of Ice   031: The Big Game

    NOAH’S POVThe moment the puck drops, the arena erupts.Ashford comes out aggressive from the opening seconds, moving the puck quickly and pressing hard into St. Martins’ end of the ice. They seem determined to make it clear that they have no intention of letting the Wolves settle into the game, and every time an Ashford player gets close to the net, the crowd rises with them.I have my phone raised, tracking the action through the screen.The game is faster than I expected.Skates carve sharply into the ice as the players fly from one end of the rink to the other. Sticks clash as they fight for possession, bodies slam into the boards, and the crowd reacts to every near miss with a mixture of cheers and groans. I keep moving my phone with the players, taking photograph after photograph whenever I get a clear shot.Then, suddenly, St. Martins turns the play around.One second, Ashford has control of the puck, the next, Logan steals it.He takes off before our players can fully realiz

  • A Deal With The King of Ice   032: Culprit

    NOAH’S POVFuck, fuck, fuck!My head turns frantically from one direction to another, my eyes scanning the arena as if my camera might somehow appear out of thin air if I look hard enough.My heart is still pounding when something catches my attention among the spectators.Or rather, someone.Maisie.She’s standing with her friends a few rows away, laughing and talking carefreely. And there’s something twirling lazily around her finger while she chats.A brown strap.My heart skids. I squint, staring at it more closely.No. It can’t be.My eyes narrow as I focus on the strap again. That looks exactly like the fucking strap on my camera.I shoot my gaze immediately to Maisie’s face. As if she can feel me staring, she turns and our eyes meet.Her laughter slowly fades into a small, knowing smirk.Then, deliberately, she lifts the strap higher around her finger as though she’s showing it to me. Like it’s some fucking trophy.My stomach drops.I curl my hands into fists at my sides, my na

  • A Deal With The King of Ice   030: Missing

    NOAH’S POVThe interschool match between Ashford and St. Martins is only days away, and the excitement around the university is impossible to miss. Everywhere I go, people are talking about the upcoming game and how the St. Martins Wolves are no easy competition. At this point, it feels like the match of the semester.I also barely see Miles around these days.He’s hardly ever at the apartment, and even those occasional run-ins we used to have have become rare. The only time I really see him is at the rink, where he’s been practicing and training obsessively with the rest of the team, barely giving me more than a passing glance.I figure it’s because of the upcoming game, although I still can’t completely shake the thoughts of our last interactions whenever I see him.But I try to bury those memories as quickly as they surface because I have enough going on without letting the thoughts of Miles distract me or the way he’d looked at me that night at the club.The team’s hard work ext

  • A Deal With The King of Ice   029: Jealous?Not Jealous

    MILES’ POVShe’s nervous.I can see it in the way she shifts restlessly on her feet and keeps looking everywhere but at me, as though my face is the one thing in this elevator she absolutely cannot afford to look at.Like she’s hiding something.The suspicion already sitting in the back of my mind grows stronger.I take a small step toward her.She immediately retreats, almost stumbling backward as though my movement has startled the hell out of her.“What are you doing?” She asks, her voice catching slightly.A short laugh escapes me.She keeps exposing herself without even realizing it. Whatever she’s trying to hide, she clearly isn’t very good at pretending everything is fine.“Why are you suddenly acting weird?” I raise a brow and take another step toward her.She retreats again, but I only move closer until her back finally meets the elevator wall, leaving her with nowhere else to go.“What’s your deal?” She asks, forcing the words through a visibly tense body and an even tenser

  • A Deal With The King of Ice   028: Behind the Mask 2

    NOAH’S POVMy breath comes out shaky as I stand outside the private room where the client is waiting for me. I’ve put my blonde wig back on and adjusted the eye mask over my face, making sure there’s barely any chance of my identity being recognized.Mama B gives me one firm pat on the back.“Good luck.” Then she walks away, leaving me alone.I take one long, deep breath, forcing myself to calm down as I remind myself that this is still just a private pole dance. Yes, it’s a little different from performing on the main stage, but the rules are clear. There’s no touching or grabbing from the client. The club has strict boundaries in place, and as long as I stick to them, I’ll be fine.I push the door open and step inside.The room is small, lit only by a low red glow that throws long shadows across the walls. A single black pole stands in the center of a raised platform. The space is quiet except for the soft click of my heels against the floor.A man is already seated in the leathe
