Nicolas’s POV

By the next session, I had convinced myself of two things:

1. I was completely in control of myself.

2. Imani didn’t affect me.

Both were lies, and I knew they were lies, but they were the only things stopping me from spiraling.

Every night I walked to her apartment, something in my chest tightened like I was heading into a fight I wasn’t prepared for. And every night, the second she opened the door, that tightness shifted into something hotter.

I needed to kill that feeling befor

  • Pucking The Enemy Hockey Captain    CHAPTER 27

    Imani’s POVWhen I agreed to hangout, I told myself the evening was harmless.That it was just an opportuniy for me to get to know Ryder better outside classes and the occasional hellos. I convinced myself that it was just Nicolas still trying to make amends and I wanted to show him some grace.That was the story I repeated in my head as I walked back to my apartment, my keys clutched tightly in my hand, the cool night air brushing against my skin. The evening had been harmless. Normal. Friendly.Just people hanging out. Just Ryder being kind. Just Nicolas being… there.Nothing more.And yet my heart hadn’t stopped racing since I left. Being in Nicolas’s personal space made me feel like I was seeing another part of him. Sure Ryder was nice and he was fun to hangout with him, but I couldn’t get my mind off Nicolas. One thing was for certain.I was so fucked.I unlocked the door quietly, slipping inside and closing it behind me with more care than necessary. June wasn’t home yet, whic

  • Pucking The Enemy Hockey Captain    CHAPTER 26 

    Nicolas’s POVWhen the idea first hit me, I told myself it wasn’t manipulation. That was the first lie.The second was that Ryder had anything to do with why I wanted Imani at my place. It had fuck all to do with him, but I knew she wouldn’t show up if it we were going to be alone.I stared at my phone for a full minute before texting her, thumb hovering like the truth might crawl out if I waited too long. My apartment felt unusually quiet around me, like it knew what I was about to do and disapproved.I hadn’t crossed any boundaries lately. I’d been careful. I’ve played by every one of her rules and kept a respectful distance during our tutoring sessions. I hadn’t even brought up the fact that she told me to teach her how to kiss. It was something I still obsessed over.But being careful didn’t suddenly mean I was innocent.So I took the leap and texted her.Ryder’s coming by later. He mentioned wanting to hang out with you sometime. Thought I’d ask if you wanted to stop by.I watche

  • Pucking The Enemy Hockey Captain    CHAPTER 25

    Nicolas’s POVI didn’t like thinking about Ryder.Which was inconvenient, considering Ryder was one of my friends.We weren’t inseparable or anything dramatic like that, but we’d known each other long enough, shared classes, shared practices, shared enough late nights and bad decision that there was a level of trust there. He was solid. Honest. Annoyingly perceptive when he wanted to be.And lately, he’d been looking at me like he knew something was off.I should’ve seen this coming.We were in the student gym, sprawled across the benches after a brutal morning workout. Sweat clung to my skin, my muscles aching in that dull, familiar way that usually helped clear my head.Today, it wasn’t working.Ryder tossed me a bottle of water. “You’ve been weird lately.”I caught it one-handed. “Weird how?”He snorted. “You’re asking questions. That’s how.”I rolled my eyes. “Real funny.”“I’m serious,” he said, leaning back against the locker, arms crossed. “You’re quieter. Grumpier. You’ve got

  • Pucking The Enemy Hockey Captain    CHAPTER 24 

    Imani’s POVI hadn’t expected Nicolas respecting my boundaries to feel like this.That was the part no one warned you about.I thought putting distance between me and Nicolas would make everything easier, cleaner, quieter, safer. I thought once he stopped pushing, once he stayed firmly on his side of the line, I’d feel relieved.Instead, I felt… unsettled.Our last tutoring session had been textbook perfect. He arrived early. He stayed focused. He didn’t tease me, didn’t provoke me, didn’t flirt. He didn’t linger when it was over.He followed every rule I set like they were sacred. And somehow, that hurt more than when he’d been reckless.I stared at my notes for the third time without actually reading them, my mind replaying the way he’d stood at the door that night, the look on is face deliberate, restrained. Like he was afraid one wrong move would shatter something fragile.Maybe it already had.I closed my notebook with a soft thud and leaned back against the couch just as June wa

  • Pucking The Enemy Hockey Captain    CHAPTER 23

    Nicolas’s POVI arrived ten minutes early.That alone should’ve told me how badly I wanted this to go right.I stood outside Imani’s building with my hands shoved into my jacket pockets, watching students pass by like my presence there wasn’t loaded with consequence. Every instinct in my body screamed to pace, but I forced myself to stay still.I was early, calm, and prepared. Everything I hadn’t been the last time.Her terms replayed in my head like a broken record. I deserved all of it.When I knocked, it was two soft taps instead of my usual lazy knock. I listened to my own breathing while I waited.The door opened.Imani stood there with a notebook tucked under her arm, hair pulled back neatly, face composed in a way that made my chest tighten. She wasn’t nervous.She was in control.“Hi,” I said.“Come in,” she replied, stepping aside without meeting my eyes.That stung more than I expected.Her apartment looked the same, but it felt different. Brighter somehow. Less forgiving. T

  • Pucking The Enemy Hockey Captain    CHAPTER 22

    Imani’s POVI didn’t answer Nicolas that night.Not because I hadn’t heard him. Not because I didn’t understand what he was asking.But because the moment I walked away from him, my chest felt like it had been split open, and I needed time to figure out what was actually bleeding.I walked across campus without a destination, my thoughts spiraling in uneven circles. The evening air was cool, brushing against my skin like a reminder to stay grounded. Students passed me in clusters, laughing, talking about assignments, weekend plans.I felt separate from all of it.Because somewhere between his apology and his quiet, desperate let me try again, something had shifted inside me.I wanted to say no, but I didn’t.That was the part that scared me most.I should have said no. Maybe even smacked him in the head and walked away.Every rational part of me knew that giving in to Nicolas was dangerous.He’d disappeared. He’d disrespected my time. He’d put my academic standing at risk.If this wer

    Imani’s POVThe café was already half full when I arrived, the late-afternoon rush just beginning to swell. The air smelled like burnt espresso, cinnamon pastries, and something faintly sweet I couldn’t place. It was warm inside, too warm for how tense my chest felt.Tyrique spotted me before I eve

    Nicolas’s POVI knew two things for certain.First, Imani hadn’t emailed the Dean yet. Second, that meant I was on borrowed time.I found out the first one accidentally.Coach had sent me to the admin building to drop off eligibility paperwork, and as I passed the open door of the Dean’s office, I

    Nicolas’s POVAvoidance is a skill you don’t realize you’re mastering until it’s too late.By the fourth missed tutoring session, I wasn’t even pretending anymore.I stopped walking past the academic wing at night, stopped checking the clock around ten, stopped opening my messages altogether.

  • Pucking The Enemy Hockey Captain    Chapter 7

    Nicolas’s POVI told myself it was pointless.The whole walk from campus to her apartment, I kept repeating it like a mantra. This was just a mandatory tutor session. Just a boring academic requirement. That was all this was supposed to be.But my hands were shoved deep in my pockets, and my heart
