Hockey Rivalry: Bed first, game later 104
Kane Hau Alexander’s POV:I didn’t wait for goodbyes. Shula was halfway up the stairs with Bobby when I turned around and walked out. No one stopped me. Maybe they knew better. Maybe they were just glad the problem left the room. “Kane!” Shula called after me. She ran back down, dessert plate still in her hand. “Where are you going? You didn’t even say bye to Grandma.” “Grandma doesn’t like me,” I said. “Go to bed.” She frowned. Her eyes did that thing they did when she knew I was lying. “Is it Ethan? Did he text you?” I didn’t answer. Which was an answer. “Kane.” She stepped in front of me, blocking the door. Twenty-one going on forty. “You look like someone died. What happened?” “Nothing. Go sleep.” “Bullshit.” She used the word carefully, like she was trying it on. “You only get like this when—” “Shula.” She shut up. But she didn’t move. Benjamin was behind her now. Quiet. He’d followed us out of the lounge. Didn’t say anything to me. Just looked at Shula. “

Ethan Oliver Harrison’s POV:Room 2104 wasn’t a room. It was a suite. Of course it was. Bigger than my place in Toronto. Dark wood. Low lights. A bar in the corner with bottles I couldn’t afford. The curtains were open. Twenty-first floor view of nothing but other windows. People watching people. Rogers was already pouring a drink. Two glasses. Amber liquid. No ice. “Close the door, Ethan.” Not Captain. Ethan. I closed it. Didn’t lock it. My hand stayed on the handle for a second too long. “Sit,” he said. Nodded at the couch. I didn’t sit. “What do you want to talk about?” He smiled. Took a sip. Didn’t offer me the other glass yet. “Everything. Your attitude. Your performance. Your _distractions_.” He sat down, slow. Comfortable. Like he owned the furniture. Like he owned me. “We need to get on the same page. Professionally. Personally.” The word personally hit like a slap. “I’m tired,” I said. “Can we do this tomorrow? Before practice?” “No.” He set his glass

Kane Hau Alexander’s POV:The piano stopped because Bobby saw my face. He’s the only one in this family who actually looks. Shula was mid-laugh, saying “Play that part again,” when Bobby’s hands lifted off the keys. He glanced at me, then at the door where Geneva had just disappeared, then back at Shula. “Maybe later, kiddo,” he said, gentle. “Why don’t you go grab one of those fancy desserts? The chocolate ones. Before Carl eats them all.” Shula nodded, oblivious. Or pretending to be. “Okay! Save my seat?” “Always.” She left. Benjamin watched her go. Not creepy. Just… watching. Like she was a book he wasn’t sure he was allowed to read. I checked my phone. Nothing. Still no reply from Ethan. Last seen three hours ago. The wire in my chest pulled tighter. The lounge had turned into a battlefield while I wasn’t looking. My father and Geneva’s father were by the fireplace. Voices low but sharp. Words like “agreement” and “stake” and “liability.” Not talking about

Ethan Oliver Harrison’s POVI didn’t go to the lobby. I went to the pool. It was closed for the night, but the door to the stairwell wasn’t locked. Nobody used it after ten. The chlorine smell was stronger down here, mixed with that damp hotel air that never really dries. The water was still, black glass under the blue lights. No one around. I needed quiet. I needed to breathe. My phone was upstairs. On purpose. If Kane texted again, I wouldn’t see it. I couldn’t lie to him if I didn’t know what he said. I sat on a lounge chair. Didn’t take my shoes off. Just stared at the water. My hands wouldn’t stop shaking. Ten minutes passed. Then twenty. The door opened. I didn’t have to look. I knew the footsteps. “Thought I’d find you here,” Rogers said. He didn’t sound angry. That was worse. When Rogers was angry, he yelled. When he was calm, he’d already decided what was going to happen. He sat in the chair next to mine. Not touching. But close. Too close. The chlorine
Hockey Rivalry: Bed first, game later Start From Here
Kane Hau Alexander’s POVShula’s hand was sweaty in mine. She didn’t say it, but I felt it. The way her fingers kept tightening around mine as the car rolled past the gates. The Williams-Hau estate looked the same as always. It was decorated white stone, too many windows, lights on in every room like they were trying to blind the night. This wasn't where I grew up. My paternal grandfather's house was also big, but it was Alexander Williams. Not Williams-Hau.“You’re squeezing my hand off,” I told her. “Sorry.” She didn’t let go. “It’s just… big. Bigger than in the pictures. Grandfather’s house is big, but this is much bigger.” “It’s just a house, sis.” But it wasn’t. It was a stage. And we were walking onto it. The driver opened the door. Security nodded at me. But not at her. I noticed this, and I internally vowed to teach them a lesson later. Shula stepped out first. Her blue dress caught the light. The one I said made her look like a princess. She’d ironed it herself,
Hockey Rivalry: Bed first, game later First night in New York
Ethan Oliver Harrison’s POVThe car that picked me up in front of Kane's estate wasn't a taxi. I knew that the second the driver stepped out and opened the door for me like I was somebody who mattered. The car was black and long, and when I got inside, the windows were tinted so dark that the streetlights turned into smudges. I ran my hand over the leather seats without meaning to. They were soft in a way that made me feel like I should apologize for touching them. We didn’t drive to some little apartment in Brooklyn. The car went underground into a garage that was all concrete and quiet, and then I was in an elevator that needed a keycard to go up. Kane was waiting when the doors opened on the forty-second floor. His place opened straight from the elevator. There was no hallway. Just a huge room with windows that showed the entire city spread out below us. The Hudson River was a black ribbon with lights on it. I’d never seen New York like that before. From up here it didn’t loo

Kane Hau Alexander's POVI got to New York, a bit late because of a sudden security check. And it was when I couldn't find my rider that I realized that my phone was switched off.I heard that hockey players had arrived in California two days earlier, so I borrowed an elderly man's phone and called

Ethan Oliver Harrison's POVHe pouted his red lips, and his eyes squinted, wrinkling his nose. His hands were on his waist, and he looked wet from playing in the ocean. His long hair was let down, and the wind carried it.He must have noticed that I was staring because he turned to face me, his bro
