Falling for my Vampire Captain 087
Franklin’s POVThree days passed and Rydan didn’t look at me once.Not in the corridor, not during warm-up, not across the field when we were running drills. He moved through every shared space like I was furniture… present, accounted for, completely irrelevant. I told myself it didn’t bother me. I told myself that fairly consistently and believed it less each time.The strange thing was, on the ice, something had changed between us.Not in any way I could point to directly. We didn’t talk more, didn’t make eye contact, didn’t do anything that could be called deliberate coordination. But our timing had shifted. When I moved, he was already adjusting. When he drove forward, I read it before it happened and put myself in the right position without thinking. The other guys noticed it before I fully did… I caught a few of them watching us during a passing sequence with expressions that sat somewhere between confused and reluctant respect.Whatever had passed between us in that changing ro
Falling for my Vampire Captain 086
Franklin’s POVMy legs made the decision before my brain did.One second I was standing in the doorway of the changing room, and the next I was turning, moving fast, trying to put as much distance between myself and what I had just seen as my legs would allow. The image was already burned behind my eyes… the wound that had been there, red and deep, and then simply not. Like it had never happened. Like flesh could just decide to close itself and move on.I made it two steps into the corridor.A hand closed around my wrist.The grip was iron. Not painful exactly, but absolute… the kind of hold that communicates very clearly that the person applying it is not exerting even close to their full strength. I was pulled back and around before I could plant my feet, and then my back was against the wall and Rydan was in front of me.His eyes were black.Not dark brown, not some trick of the light in a dim corridor… black. Fully, completely black, the way eyes don’t go. It lasted only a moment

Franklin’s POVThe words stayed in my ear long after he had moved away.I didn’t react. I didn’t spin around, didn’t shove him back, didn’t do any of the things my body was screaming at me to do. I just kept moving, kept my grip on the stick tight, and my eyes forward. My heart was going faster than it should have been, and it had nothing to do with the drill.I was scared.Not of him specifically… of what he represented. Of how easily one whispered word could reduce everything I was trying to build here into something small and dirty. I had come to Frostbite to move forward. To do what I needed to do. And already, within days, I was being handed a label I hadn’t earned and couldn’t shake.But I finished the session. Every last minute of it.When the coach called time and the others started peeling off toward the changing rooms, I stayed. I don’t know exactly when I made that decision. It wasn’t dramatic… I just didn’t move when everyone else did, and then they were gone and I was sti
Falling for my Vampire Captain 084
Franklin’s POVThe door opened again about four minutes after it had closed.I hadn’t moved from the bench. My hand was still bleeding, slow and steady, and I had pressed the edge of my sleeve against it more out of habit than any real effort to deal with it. My friend’s words were still sitting in my head, but I hadn’t had time to turn them over properly before footsteps crossed the floor toward me.Rydan stopped a few feet away.He didn’t come close this time. He held the first aid kit out at arm’s length, the way you’d pass something to a stranger on a bus… far enough that there was a clear gap between us, far enough that our hands wouldn’t meet. I looked at the kit, then at him.His face gave nothing away.I reached forward and took it from him. The moment my fingers closed around it, he let go and stepped back. I sat there holding it, half expecting him to say something… an explanation, an instruction, anything. But he just stood there at that distance, watching me with those gre
Falling for my Vampire Captain 083
Franklin’s POVI had never been the kind of person who backed down from a challenge, and standing on that field with every eye on me, I wasn’t about to start.Rydan’s words were still hanging in the air when I dropped my bag and stepped forward. Someone tossed me a stick without being asked, and I caught it with one hand. A few of the guys exchanged glances. I didn’t look at any of them. I kept my eyes ahead and got into position.The first few minutes went better than I expected.I moved well enough that the murmuring from the sidelines changed in tone. I could feel it without looking… the shift from mild amusement to something closer to actual attention. My footwork was clean, my control decent. I had trained hard at Cresthaven before everything fell apart, and whatever that place had taken from me, it hadn’t taken that.I pushed forward, reading the space between the defenders, calculating the angle. The goal was there, open enough, and I went for it.I don’t know exactly what happ

Franklin’s POVThe cab pulled away before I even got my second bag off the ground, leaving me standing at the entrance of Frostbite Hockey Academy with nothing but cold air biting at my neck and the sound of my own breathing.I stood there for a moment, just taking it in.The academy was massive, more than I had imagined when I first read the transfer documents. Iron gates, tall and black, stretched across the entrance like something out of a gothic novel. Beyond them, buildings rose in clean, sharp lines against a pale sky. Snow dusted the rooftops and clung to the edges of the pavement. Everything looked permanent, like it had been standing long before I was born and would keep standing long after I left.Which, given how things ended at my last school, might not be too long.I grabbed both bags and pushed through the smaller side gate that had been left open. My boots crunched over the thin layer of ice that coated the path leading toward the main building. The cold here was differ
