Three years later

Sterling Belmont had negotiated billion-dollar mergers, handled crisis PR for collapsing international brands, and once stared down a furious Russian oligarch without breaking a sweat.

But when the call from Hope’s school lit up his phone, he sat bolt upright, answering before the first ring finished. He was in his home office, a rare stretch between meetings while Noah was at practice.

He hit speakerphone as he pushed to his feet, already halfway across the room, instinctivel

  • Owned on the Ice M/M Romance   Practice Makes Perfect

    Max hadn’t meant for it to turn into this.At some point, the world had narrowed to the space between them. Just heat and breath and the steady slide of mouths that kept deepening instead of easing off. He lost any sense of how long they’d been at it. Time blurred into the rhythm of Jamie learning him and Max responding in kind.Jamie was exactly as soft as he’d looked.His skin was warm beneath Max’s hands, smooth where his fingers slipped beneath the edge of his jacket and traced over the cotton of his T‑shirt. He tasted faintly of soda and something sweet, something unmistakably Jamie. It was addictive in a way Max hadn’t been prepared for.“That’s it,” Max whispered, brushing his mouth back over Jamie’s. “Just like that.”Jamie shivered at the praise, the reaction immediate and unfiltered, and it went straight through Max.At first Jamie had followed carefully, adjusting when Max adjusted, opening when Max pressed a little deeper. But now he was responding on instinct. Tilting hi

    If humans came with a self-destruct button, Jamie would have pressed his right then.“Oh my god,” he blurted before he could stop himself. “Was it that bad?”Max snorted. “No,” he said, amused. “No. It wasn’t bad. You just seemed a little… nervous.”Jamie’s laugh came out thin and brittle. “Yeah. I guess I could, uh. Use a little practice.”He meant it as self-deprecating deflection. A joke.Max went quiet.Jamie risked a glance at him.Max was watching him like he was considering something. Head tilted, green eyes steady and assessing in a way that made Jamie feel slightly dismantled.“Alright,” Max said finally. “Sure.”Jamie blinked. “What do you mean?”“You can practice on me.”Jamie’s brain lagged.“I—” He barked out a disbelieving laugh. “Obviously I was joking.”Max raised a brow, slow and deliberate, the corner of his mouth lifting just enough to suggest he knew exactly what he was doing. The confidence in it was infuriatingly attractive.Jamie stared at him. “Sorry. Can you

  • Owned on the Ice M/M Romance   Just a Game

    Jamie nearly collided with someone in the hallway. He muttered an apology he didn’t mean, shoved through the first bathroom door he saw, and locked it with shaking fingers.Music thudded faintly through the walls. The light overhead was too bright. The mirror showed a version of him he barely recognized—flushed, eyes blown wide, lips swollen and pink like he’d done something reckless.The heat that had been simmering since the terrace spiked fast and sharp, low in his stomach. He fumbled with his jeans, barely getting himself situated over the toilet in time, breath coming in shallow pulls. It wasn’t deliberate. It wasn’t planned.It just… happened.Cum streaked the back of the toilet seat, hitting the bowl in hot, messy pulses.Quick. Mortifying. Over before he could process it.Jamie braced a hand against the wall, staring at the tile while the last tremor worked its way through him.“Oh—god.”He’d nearly cum in his pants, in the middle of a hockey party... because of a kiss.A kiss

  • Owned on the Ice M/M Romance   Five Mississippi's

    Jamie was going to pass out.There was no other explanation for the way the world tilted slightly, sound swelling and distorting around him. The terrace lights felt too bright. The laughter too sharp.The bottle pointed at Max like it had done it on purpose.Again.The girls squealed louder this time.“Oh my god.”“No way!”“Okay, that’s fate.”Jamie stared at the green glass neck like it might roll somewhere else out of sheer pity.It didn’t.He reached out to try again.Connor leaned forward, eyes gleaming. “Ah, ah,” he said, pointing. “You had your second spin. Bottle’s decided. Now you kiss.”Jamie’s stomach dropped.He couldn’t kiss Max.He was barely keeping his pathetic crush under control as it was. Sitting this close was already torture. Max’s thigh was warm against his through denim, broad shoulder brushing his arm every time someone shifted.And now he was supposed to just… lean in?In front of an audience?Jamie had never kissed anyone.Not at all.He should’ve run. Should

  • Owned on the Ice M/M Romance   Déjà Vu

    Max took longer than usual getting ready.It wasn’t about the party. He’d been to thousands of these. Same music, same beer, same rotating cast of girls and teammates and noise. That part was easy.But another part wasn’t easy and had been happening for a while.For a couple of years now, if he was being honest.It had started as a quiet question he never said out loud. A what if that showed up late at night and disappeared by morning. What if attraction wasn’t as simple as everyone around him made it look? What if he just… hadn’t met the right person yet?What if he had, but they'd disappeared before all the pieces could fall into place?He’d looked. Objectively. Teammates in locker rooms. Guys at the gym. Friends of friends.Nothing.Girls were easy. Familiar. Automatic. He liked them. Wanted them. That part had never been confusing.So he’d figured the question meant nothing.Then he’d run into Jamie in that coffee shop.And something had shifted.It had been a boring summer before

  • Owned on the Ice M/M Romance   The Wolf Den

    Jamie stood in front of his mirror convinced he was looking at someone else.He exhaled slowly and adjusted the collar of his shirt.He’d agonized over the outfit longer than he wanted to admit. He finally settled on dark jeans that actually fit him properly, a soft T‑shirt that skimmed his shoulders without clinging, and a lightweight jacket he could keep on if he panicked and needed something to hide behind.The result was… actually decent.His hair behaved for once, falling into that effortless mess that wasn’t effortless at all. He looked like himself, just sharpened around the edges. The kind of version that might get a second glance. Or at least not get eaten alive.Jamie grabbed his phone, checked the time, then checked it again.Zach: wolf den tonight. don’t bail.Jamie winced.The Wolf Den.Zach had explained it casually, like it wasn’t the setup of Jamie’s personal nightmare. Most of the team lived together in a former frat house just off campus, Sigma something. Now it was j
