The morning comes in sideways through the curtains.

Mia sleeps through it.

She'd stayed up later than usual—the residual warmth of the evening, the particular inability to settle that follows a night that contained too many good things.

When she finally surfaces, it's because her phone has vibrated itself halfway off the nightstand.

She picks it up without opening her eyes.

When she opens them, her screen is completely covered.

She stares at it for a moment, her brain still offline, and then th

  • Hooked on the NHL Star: He Came Back for Me   Chapter 85 - Lapdog

    "Consider it a date then..."Nina's voice is a toxic cocktail of honey and gin, dripping with a drunken, melodic filth that Lisa can't ignore.Nina's fingers trace slow, suggestive circles over Tyler's chest. "Since the last time...I haven't been able to stop thinking about it. You were so dominant, Tyler. You filled me so completely, I could barely walk for a week."She stands on her tiptoes, her body a lithe, desperate curve against his. "My body is dying for you! Just for tonight...find a way to slip away from the party. Meet me at our old spot?"Lisa feels as though she's been dipped in liquid nitrogen.Tyler lets out a low, vibrant chuckle. "Nina, you're drunk," he says, his voice carrying that familiar, flirtatious lilt that Lisa once mistook for affection. "You know I have a girlfriend.""That little mouse?" Nina scoffs, her body pressing even closer, her chest molding against his arm. "She looks like she'd faint if you did half the things to her that you do to me. Does she eve

  • Hooked on the NHL Star: He Came Back for Me   Chapter 84 - A Dream

    Lisa stands at the corner near the vending machines, her breath hitching in her throat.There he is. Tyler.He's holding two bottles of water, his head tilted as he listens to a man in a Bears' supporter jacket. If it were just that, Lisa could have breathed. She could have walked over and slipped her hand into his. But then her gaze shifts, landing on Nina.Nina, the woman Emily and the others had been whispering about with those tight, guarded expressions, is standing just inches away. She's a vision of predatory grace, dressed in skin-tight yoga pants and a tiny tank top that leaves nothing to the imagination.Nina's hand slides up Tyler's arm, her body pressing against his with a casual, practiced intimacy. She whispers something in his ear, her eyes flashing with a wicked, seductive light.Tyler doesn't push her away. In fact, he leans down, a familiar, easy grin spreading across his face—the same grin he used to give Lisa when they first started dating.Lisa watches him from the

  • Hooked on the NHL Star: He Came Back for Me   Chapter 83 - Not Enough

    The arena empties in stages, the way water drains—first the crowd, then the outer corridors, then the internal channels.Ellie is practically vibrating with energy when she finally converges with Lisa and Mia near the player entrance."Did you see that hit? And that pass from Elias to Lucas? It was like they were sharing a brain!" Ellie gushes, her hands flying as she reenacts the play. "And the Jumbotron. I think the entire city of Toronto just collective gasped when they saw you two."Mia, who would have died of embarrassment a month ago, simply offers a serene, knowing smile. She's developed a certain immunity to the teasing."Honestly, Mia," Ellie teases, leaning in close with a devilish glint in her eyes. "If you two ever sit in the stands together, the cameraman is going to demand a public kiss just to keep the ratings up. You'll be the new royal couple of the NHL.""Ellie," Mia warns, though her voice lacks any real bite. "If I let you keep going, you'll have us married and reti

  • Hooked on the NHL Star: He Came Back for Me   Chapter 82 - Chicago

    The second period opens and Elias plays like someone has raised the stakes personally.He's always good. Tonight he's something else—sharper in transition, faster to the boards, initiating contact rather than absorbing it.Mia watches his movement patterns from the bench and makes the clinical note that his left-side awareness is unusually precise tonight, his decision-making compressed to almost no visible latency.He takes a hit at the far boards that produces a sound she feels before she hears. He bounces off the wall, palms against the boards, uses the rebound to pivot—smooth, almost playful—and grins at the player who hit him. Full teeth. All challenge.The crowd registers this as extremely correct behavior.Despite the bone-crushing intensity of the previous period, the fire on the ice refuses to dim. The neutral zone has transformed into a literal meat grinder—a chaotic tug-of-war where possession is a fleeting ghost.Puck control swaps hands with dizzying frequency, both teams

  • Hooked on the NHL Star: He Came Back for Me   Chapter 81 - On Screen

    The last home game of November, the arena knows something is different.It's not subtle.The crowd is at capacity—every seat, every standing section—and the particular energy running through it has less to do with the Chicago Bears.It has more to do with the fact that everyone in the building has seen the statement, or the video, or both, and has come tonight partly to watch hockey and partly to see what happens when these two share a public space for the first time.Mia becomes aware of this approximately eight seconds after stepping out of the corridor and into the open air of the ice rink.She's in her team physio jacket, medical kit at her feet, doing the thing she always does before a game. But the weight of it tonight is different. She can feel the eyes from the stands without looking up.The particular quality of an arena that has already decided where the interesting thing is.Anderson appears beside her."Breathe," he says. Not looking at her. Looking at the ice, where the p

  • Hooked on the NHL Star: He Came Back for Me   Chapter 80 - Go Public

    The afternoon sun does its best for Toronto in November, making everything look marginally warmer than it actually is.Mia walks through it.Every person she passes does the thing—the glance, the double-take, the carefully neutral expression of someone who has definitely seen the news and is deciding whether to say so.She keeps her pace even and her face composed and does not make eye contact with anyone unnecessarily.Her desk phone rings the moment she sits down.It's Dr. Anderson."Mia. Come to my office. And if you happen to see Elias on the way—" a pause— "bring him along."Mia is too consumed by her own spiraling thoughts to catch the playful lilt in his voice. She's so rattled she can barely find her footing, walking with the stiff, robotic gait of someone heading to their own execution.She almost walks past Elias in the corridor. He's coming from the opposite direction, assistant coach behind him, and he sees her first.He reaches over and squeezes her hand. Quick, just once
