Lambert Clementine's POV

When I arrived in Toronto, Canada, two of my distant cousins were waiting for me at the airport. Lilly had informed them about my situation, and they had promised to help.

“Brother,” the oldest greeted me with a bright smile.

I was known as the kid who rarely talks, so I got into character, and happily hugged them.

“We heard what happened. How are you doing? How are aunty and uncle?” The youngest, Teepee, asked with a warm smile.

I let my eyes drop. “I haven't visited

  • Hockey Rivalry: Bed first, game later    New York city

    Kane Hau Alexander's POVWe drove straight to my New York apartment the second the plane landed. Ethan had been unusually quiet the whole ride. I figured it was because of Geneva, but I didn’t have any comforting words that wouldn’t sound fake, so I kept my mouth shut and stared out the window, trying to focus on what came next.“Your mansion looks… different,” Ethan said once we stepped out of the car.I hummed. “Someone’s making changes without consulting the owner,” I muttered under my breath.The place was covered in ribbons and balloons. And right there in front, an apology banner flapped in the breeze like some kind of bad joke.Ethan raised an eyebrow. “You didn’t plan a party, did you?” he asked, reading the banner.“What?” I stammered. Heat rushed up the back of my neck as I quickly waved a couple of workers over. “Take that down. All of it. Now.”*Why the hell is this happening right now? Who the fuck decided to do this without asking me? Are they trying to broadcast to my

    Carl's POVIt would be a lie to say everything had gone back to normal, because nothing felt normal anymore. Not the way my new teammates treated each other like strangers, not the way Daniel kept acting so strangely around me.“What do you mean he’s gone?” I asked my aunt, phone pressed to my ear as I stepped away from the noisy bar.“His mother told me she can’t get a hold of him!” her stern voice blared through the speaker. “Your grandfather also mentioned he hasn’t seen much of you lately. What is going on, Carl? Why are you in Canada?”I stayed quiet for a moment, guilt twisting in my chest. I’d been so wrapped up in my own mess: the team drama, Daniel, everything with Kane, that I’d completely forgotten to check in with the family.“I’ll contact Grandfather and explain everything. Don’t worry,” I said quickly, ending the call before she could fire off more questions.“Who was that? Your girlfriend?” Daniel asked when he came out of the bathroom, wiping his hands on his jeans.We

    Ethan Oliver Harrison's POV“Catherine, if my parents come back, don’t bother arguing with them. Just tell them to message me. I don’t want you getting hurt because of me again,” I said after we exchanged goodbyes.Catherine nodded, but I knew she wasn’t really listening. When had she ever listened when it came to my parents or danger?“I thought you said you only got a day off? Why are you leaving town so soon?” Nate asked, eyeing both Kane and me suspiciously from his seat beside Catherine. “We still have over ten hours. There are some things I’d like to discuss with you.”“Hmm,” I stammered, suddenly at a loss.Catherine burst into laughter when she noticed my struggle. “Don’t bother your brother, Nathan. He’s probably planning to book a hotel room and spend the whole day in his man’s arms,” she teased, faking a pitiful look. “I’m not as important as his boyfriend, apparently.”My eyes widened. “Catherine?!”“What?” She blinked at me innocently, batting her lashes.I didn’t say any

    Kane Hau Alexander's POVI smiled. “Will do that later, sir.”Ethan grinned like a little boy, and the way he acted so cute without even trying made my heart flutter.*I love you so much, Ethan. I doubt I’ll ever be able to show you enough.*I didn’t say those words out loud, but as I kept cutting the carrots, that was all I could think about.“I’ll go wash up. We have to hurry, up Catherine is expecting us,” Ethan said with a smile.I chuckled. “Nah, I don’t think so. She probably thinks we’re fucking on her bed right now.”Ethan rolled his eyes and left the kitchen. The second he was gone, I let out a heavy sigh.I wanted to live in the moment, I really did. But I was scared. Scared of hurting Ethan again. He kept telling me he could handle anything, and I believed him, but my family wasn’t just “anything.” If he got hurt because of me, I’d never forgive myself.“You worry too much. He’s not a child. He can handle it,” I muttered to myself, trying to believe it.I tossed the chopped

    Ethan Oliver Harrison's POVKane wasn’t smiling anymore. An unusual expression crossed his face as he stared at me blankly for a long moment.“Are you really jealous?” I asked, brows furrowed.Kane quickly looked away, then turned to face me properly. “What if I am?” His voice was low, almost challenging. “Aren’t I allowed to be jealous over my boyfriend?”I didn’t reply right away. I tried to hide the swarm of butterflies exploding in my stomach, but it was impossible. A foolish smile broke across my face anyway.“Nathan is Catherine’s nephew,” I explained softly. “Her late sister gave birth to him in high school. I thought you knew about Catherine’s sister, that’s why I said that.”Kane looked visibly relieved. He let out a small chuckle and shook his head. “Wow. I had no idea Catherine had a sister who passed away.”“It’s okay,” I said, offering a gentle smile. “Her name was Cally. She died during childbirth when she was only sixteen.”I paused, letting the weight of the memory set

    Kane Hau Alexander's POVEthan looked broken when Catherine mentioned his parents had something to do with her accident, and my chest tightened when I noticed how affected my boyfriend was.“Doctor, does she have internal bleeding? Will she be alright?” Ethan asked the doctor nervously, the minute Nate brought him in.The doctor looked like he had a lot to say. He was holding a clipboard and a biro in one hand, and he moved closer to Catherine to observe her condition.“There is no internal bleeding for now, sir. She seemed to have been assaulted, and there were lots of deep cuts on her when she was first admitted,” the doctor explained. “We stitched the worst ones and gave her fluids. She’s stable, but she needs rest. The headbandage is for a mild concussion from the fall. We’ll monitor her for another day or two.”Ethan’s hand found mine and squeezed hard, his knuckles turning white. I could feel the tremor running through him. Catherine just waved the doctor off with that stubborn
