The moment Kane closed the storage room door, everything between them changed forever.

The small room at the back of the arena smelled like old equipment and dust. Dim light came from one bulb overhead. Kane stood with his back against the door. Elias faced him with his arms crossed, waiting.

"Start talking," Elias said. "No more half answers. What are you really?"

Kane took a deep breath. "I am a werewolf. Not some story or movie version. The real thing. I was born this way."

Elias stared at h

    The final whistle hung in the air like a challenge no one could ignore. The championship game exploded into its fiercest moments with seconds ticking down. Kane sprinted down the field, heart pounding, as hunters in plain clothes slipped through the crowd edges. Elias called out from his position, voice sharp over the roar."Kane, left side! They're closing in!"Kane pivoted hard, ball tucked tight. "I see them. Stay linked. The bond will guide us."Elias caught the pass in stride. "Got it. Feel that pull? Stronger than ever."Their mate bond surged hot between them, sharper than any play call. It fed Kane strength from Elias and sent Elias speed from Kane. Teammates shouted around them.Ruiz barreled through a gap. "Keep it moving! We own this game!"Torres blocked a defender. "These council goons won't stop us. Push harder!"A hunter disguised as a fan leaped the barrier near the sidelines. "Abominations! The council demands you stand down!"Kane tackled him low before security cou

  • Blood beneath the ice    chapter 14

    The arena exploded into chaos the second the commissioner dropped his bombshell. Voices crashed together like a storm hitting the stands. Reporters shouted from every corner, cameras flashed nonstop, and players on the bench jumped to their feet. Kane gripped Elias's hand tighter under the table on the makeshift stage. The mate bond hummed between them, warm and steady, like an anchor in the middle of a hurricane."What the hell did he just say?" one reporter yelled.The commissioner, a tall man with gray hair and a face that looked carved from stone, raised both hands. "Settle down. I said what I said. Kane and Elias are mates. They're supernatural. And yes, the league has known about players like them for years."Kane leaned forward, his voice cutting through the noise. "You knew? All this time?"Elias nodded beside him, jaw tight. "Explain yourself. Right now."Team owner Mr. Hargrove stood up from his seat nearby, face red. "Commissioner, this is not how we handle league business

  • Blood beneath the ice    Chapter 13: Breaking Point

    Pressure from every direction was closing in so tight that something had to give.The playoffs had reached a breaking point. Kane and Elias sat together in a quiet corner of the team hotel the night before their most important game of the season. The mate bond hummed steadily between them but the weight of everything else felt crushing.Elias spoke first. "We need to talk about the team. Should you tell them the full truth about what you are before the game tomorrow?"Kane rubbed his hands together slowly. "I have been asking myself that same question for days now. If I reveal everything it could destroy the team chemistry we have built all season. But if I hold back and something happens to you or any of the guys because of me I will never forgive myself."Elias took his hand firmly. "I am with you no matter what you decide. The bond makes me believe we are stronger when we are honest with the people who matter."Kane looked at him. "The wolf has always been my secret. My burden alon

    The secret was out in the worst possible way and the entire team had seen it happen.The practice ice fell completely silent after Kane pulled the attacker off Elias. His eyes still carried that faint golden glow and his fangs had shown clearly for that split second. Teammates stood frozen all around them, sticks hanging loose in their hands.Elias got to his feet fast and moved straight to Kane’s side. "Everyone just stay calm. It is not what it looks like at all."Roberts, one of the veteran players, stared with wide eyes. "Kane, your eyes. What the hell was that? They were glowing."Kane breathed hard trying to push the wolf completely back down. "I can explain this. Just give me a chance to talk."Another player named Reed stepped back a few feet. "That was not normal, man. Your teeth looked wrong. Like something from a horror story."Elias stood firm right beside Kane. "He is still the same guy who has had your back every single game this season. Let him talk before you jump to c

  • Blood beneath the ice    Chapter 11: Council Shadows

    The council threat hung over Kane like a storm cloud ready to break and ruin everything he had built.The team hit the ice for a hard practice session with the next playoff game only days away. Everyone felt the pressure. Kane tried to focus on drills but the elder's warning played over and over in his mind. Elias skated up close during warmups."You look like you did not sleep," Elias said quietly. "The council call is eating at you."Kane kept his voice low. "It is. They want me to appear. Ignoring them feels stupid but going feels like a trap."Elias stayed right beside him. "We handle this together. I am pushing hard today to find allies inside the league. Someone must know something useful."They talked between every drill. The rest of the team worked around them.One teammate shouted. "Kane, you hitting hard today. Save some for the game."Kane called back. "Just getting ready. You do the same."Elias pulled him aside at the next water break. "I set up a meeting with that old sc

  • Blood beneath the ice    Chapter 10: Moonlit Confession

    The moon had a way of pulling secrets into the open when the world felt like it was closing in.Kane and Elias finally slowed down after running for what felt like hours. They found a hidden clearing deep in the woods outside the city. The nearly full moon hung bright overhead. Trees surrounded them like a natural wall.Elias caught his breath and looked around. "We should be safe here for now. Are you okay?"Kane leaned against a tree. His body fought the strong pull to shift. "The moon is making it hard. The wolf wants out bad tonight."Elias stepped closer. "Talk to me. What is happening with you right now?"Kane breathed through the urge. "The change is pushing. I feel stronger under the moon but it is harder to stay human. The bond makes it even more intense when you are close."Elias touched his arm. "I feel it too. Like something is pulling me toward you stronger than before. Tell me about the laws you mentioned. I need to understand what we are up against."Kane sat down on a
