Franklin’s POV

I called his name once.

He didn’t slow.

I called it again, louder, trying to cut through the crowd noise and the medical team movement and the general controlled chaos of a player down on the ice. Rydan’s back was to me and he was moving with the particular directness of someone who has stopped filtering their movement through the consideration of how it looks.

I went after him.

The ice under my skates was the same ice it had been sixty seconds ago and my legs were working as har

    Rydan’s POVThe crowd noise changed the moment I crossed onto the field.Not the recognition sound, not the energy that came from a play developing… the specific surprised noise of an audience processing something unexpected. I heard it as information and filed it and kept moving, because the only thing that mattered in the immediate present was the rival captain and Franklin and the distance between where Franklin had gone down and where I currently was.Franklin’s voice came through all of it.“Rydan.”Not calling for help. Saying my name the way he said it when he was trying to contain a situation rather than escalate it, the particular warning register I had learned to read accurately over months of learning to read him.I stopped in front of the rival captain.He was bigger than me in the way some people were bigger, the kind of physical presence that was intended to communicate something. He looked at me with the assessment of someone deciding what I was.I looked back at him an

    Franklin’s POVI walked out before the coach finished the sentence.Not because I hadn’t heard it… I had heard every word, including the ones between the words, the implication that months of work and a season of training were now sitting on a surface that could tilt in any direction. I walked out because staying in that office one more second with that specific information settling into me required a composure I didn’t currently have access to.The corridor outside was empty and I walked it fast, not looking back.“Franklin.” Rydan’s voice behind me, closer than I expected.“Don’t,” I said, without turning. “Just… don’t. Not right now.”“Let me explain…”I stopped. Turned. Looked at him directly.“There’s nothing to explain,” I said. “I know what happened. I know why it happened. I’ve been standing next to all of it for months.” I kept my voice low because the corridor didn’t need to be involved in this. “But I told you in the back of the building. I told you clearly. And then we wal

    Franklin’s POVI saw it coming and couldn’t stop it.Rydan moved the way he moved when the thing underneath him took over before the rational part caught up… fast and direct, and the teammate in the doorway barely had time to register that the smirk had been a mistake before Rydan reached him.They went down together.The teammate hit the changing room floor and Rydan was on him and the sound of it brought everyone who had been leaving back into the room with the immediate, involuntary response of people hearing something they didn’t expect to hear. The fight was not even in the way that fights between two people of comparable strength are even. Rydan was operating from somewhere that wasn’t entirely him, and the teammate was on the floor receiving all of it, and the other players were grabbing at Rydan’s arms and his jacket and his shoulders and making no progress at all.I watched four of them fail to move him and understood that this was going to go badly in multiple directions sim

    Rydan’s POVI didn’t say anything about the mark.I looked at it in the lamplight and registered it with the part of me that catalogued things requiring attention, and then Franklin shifted and the collar of his shirt moved and it was covered again, and I made the decision I had been making more frequently than was good for either of us… to hold the information until I had something useful to do with it rather than introduce it into an evening that had already been enough.He needed rest. He needed to be treated like a person rather than a situation. I sat with the mark in the back of my awareness and let the evening be the evening.Morning arrived and with it the specific weight of a match day, which had its own gravity regardless of what else was happening.Franklin moved through the preparation with the focused quiet of someone who had decided what the day required of him and was aligning himself to it. I watched him from the edge of the room and continued not mentioning the mark,

    Rydan’s POVI was off the sofa before Bruno had completed his first step toward the hallway.“Stay here,” I said to Franklin.I didn’t look back to confirm he had heard it. Bruno was already moving and I followed him, which was an instinct I had developed over six years with him… he had never once oriented that way toward nothing.The hallway was lit and ordinary. The coat hooks, the side table, the runner on the floor. Bruno moved along it with his nose low and his ears forward and his tail doing nothing, which was the version of him that I took most seriously.He stopped at a door.The room at the end of the east corridor, which we had been using for storage and overflow since we arrived… boxes, some of my things, equipment bags from the match. Bruno stopped in front of it and sat down, which was not the behaviour of a dog who wanted to go through a door. It was the behaviour of a dog that had decided its job was done and the rest was my responsibility.I put my hand flat against th

    Rydan’s POVI went to the window first.The property beyond the glass was dark and still, the security lights casting their fixed pools across the driveway and the gate and the stretch of path between them. Nothing moved within any of the illuminated areas. I extended my awareness through the glass and into the cold air beyond it and followed the scent that had pulled me forward.It was there. Close enough to be deliberate, faint enough to be deniable.Then it moved.Not toward the house… away, laterally, along the outside of the property wall, and then gone, the way these things went, between one moment of tracking it and the next of losing it.I looked at Franklin.He was asleep. Genuinely, deeply, his face turned slightly away from me, completely absent from the present situation in the way that people are when their body has taken the decision out of their hands.I went downstairs.The grounds were cold and the security were at their positions and nothing was out of order in any v

    Calen’s POV“Karl, wait…” I started, but he cut me off.“Stay out of this, Calen.” Karl’s eyes were still fixed on Morrison. “You’re making a huge mistake getting involved with him. He’s dangerous in ways you don’t understand.”Anger flared hot in my chest. “Stop it. Stop acting like I can’t make m

    Calen’s POVI hated my body for betraying me like that.All I’d wanted was to push Karl away, tell him off, stand firm in my anger and hurt and finally have some self-respect and refuse to be used.Instead, I’d melted the second he touched me. Let him fuck me against the pool bench while whispering

    Calen’s POVTime stopped.Sophia stood in Karl’s doorway wearing an oversized t-shirt that clearly wasn’t hers. Her hair was messy, like she’d just woken up. Like she’d spent the night here.“What are you doing here?” she demanded, crossing her arms.The question snapped me out of my shock. “What a

    Calen’s POVThe words echoed in my head, impossible and terrifying.‘He’ll try to kill you.’“Can I leave?” I asked, my voice barely above a whisper. “Please. I need to go.”Morrison looked at me for a long moment, then nodded slowly. “Of course. You’re free to leave whenever you want.” He paused,
