2026-08-13 07:00:54The final buzzer screamed through the arena and the crowd exploded, but Kade felt his stomach drop because he knew the real battle was just beginning.
The shootout had been a nightmare. Five rounds of back and forth, every save and goal pushing the tension higher. Evan had buried the winner with a move so filthy it made the Montreal goalie drop to his knees in defeat. The Blades bench had erupted.

THE CAPTAIN AND THE KILLER chapter 94
Kade floored the accelerator and watched the city lights vanish in his rearview mirror, knowing that every second they put between themselves and Viktor was a second they might not have.The car tore through the dark highways, cutting past slower traffic with a reckless abandon that made Evan grip the door handle. The lake house was two hours north, two hours of empty roads and dark forests and the constant fear that headlights might appear behind them at any moment."You are going to get us killed before Viktor even gets the chance," Evan said, but his voice was tight with something that was not quite anger."Relax. I know how to drive.""You drive like you play hockey. Aggressive and with no regard for anyone else."Kade glanced at him, a ghost of a smile playing on his lips. "You say that like it is a bad thing."Evan shook his head but did not argue. The tension in the car was thick enough to cut with a knife. Every shadow on

The final buzzer screamed through the arena and the crowd exploded, but Kade felt his stomach drop because he knew the real battle was just beginning.The shootout had been a nightmare. Five rounds of back and forth, every save and goal pushing the tension higher. Evan had buried the winner with a move so filthy it made the Montreal goalie drop to his knees in defeat. The Blades bench had erupted. Guys were flying over the boards, swarming the ice, screaming with joy.Kade jumped in with the rest of them, slapping helmets and shouting along with the celebration. But his eyes kept darting toward the tunnel. His ears strained for any sound that did not belong. The game was over. The fans were cheering. And somewhere beneath all that noise, Viktor's men were still hunting.Evan found him in the chaos, grabbing his jersey and pulling him close. "We did it. We actually did it.""Hold that thought." Kade kept his voice low, barely audible over the crowd
THE CAPTAIN AND THE KILLER chapter 92
The buzzer for the second period blared through the arena just as Kade's feet hit the concrete tunnel, and he knew in that instant that every second he had bought was already gone.He sprinted toward the bench, skates clicking against the hard floor until he hit the rubber matting near the ice. His lungs burned. His heart hammered so loud he could barely hear the crowd roaring above him. He had made it. Somehow, impossibly, he had made it back before anyone noticed he was gone.Coach Harlan shot him a look as he slid onto the bench, but there was no time for questions. The lines were changing. Guys were jumping over the boards. Kade grabbed his stick and waited for his turn, forcing his breathing to slow, forcing his face to stay neutral.Evan was already on the ice, circling near the red line. He glanced toward the bench once, quick and sharp, and Kade gave him the smallest nod. The signal. The plan was moving forward.But even as Kade settled in
THE CAPTAIN AND THE KILLER chapter 91
The safe sat there mocking Kade with its cold steel silence, and he knew right then that every plan he had built was about to crumble into dust.His fingers traced the edge of the secondary digital override panel, a sleek black rectangle that looked far more advanced than anything he had expected to find. The main lock had been easy enough. Too easy, actually. That should have been his first warning. But this secondary system was different. It required two separate biometric inputs and a rotating passcode that changed every sixty seconds. Without Vance, the panel was just a dead piece of plastic mocking his efforts.Kade stepped back from the safe and ran both hands through his hair, pulling hard enough to hurt. Three months of planning. Three months of getting close to Evan, of playing the long game, of sacrificing pieces of himself he never thought he would give up. And now this. A single panel standing between him and the proof he needed to destroy Alexander Ryd
THE CAPTAIN AND THE KILLER chapter 90
Evan played like a man trying to stop the clock with his bare hands and every shift made it clearer. The second period was only half over. The score was still tied. The crowd stayed loud. But Evan’s mind was not on the scoreboard. He took the next faceoff and won it clean. Then he held the puck an extra second longer than he needed along the wall. A Philadelphia player closed in. Evan took the hit and stayed down a moment longer than necessary. The referee skated over. “You hurt Ryder?” Evan got up slow. “I am fine. Just need a second.” The official blew the whistle anyway and waved the trainer over. The clock stopped. On the bench the spot beside him stayed empty. Kade had not returned. Coach Harlan shouted down the line. “Ryder. You good?” Evan nodded as he climbed back on the bench. “Good Coach. Just got my wind knocked out.” A teammate leaned in. “You looked like you stayed down on

Kade slipped back into the locker room with less than two minutes left in the intermission and the whole team still packing up for the second period. Coach Harlan looked up from the whiteboard. “Volkov. Cutting it close. Skate fixed?” Kade dropped onto the bench and grabbed his backup pair. “Fixed enough. I am ready.” Evan sat two stalls down and caught his eye right away. The question was clear on his face. Kade gave a tiny shake of the head. No. Evan’s jaw tightened but he said nothing in front of the others. A defenseman across the room called over. “You almost missed the start. What took so long?” Kade laced the fresh skate fast. “Equipment room was a mess. Had to dig for the right size.” Coach clapped his hands once. “Enough talk. On the ice. Second period. We need the first goal. Top line stays together. Move.” The players stood and he

The second I heard that knock on my door during the team break I knew I was done fighting this thing with Kade.The apartment felt way too quiet after that tough stretch of games. No practice. No bus rides. Just me and my thoughts spinning about him. I cracked open a beer halfway through it when th

The second I stepped back onto Toronto ice after Montreal I knew the line between hate and need had already blurred too far.Practices felt completely different now. Every drill Coach paired us together on purpose. Kade and I circled each other like fighters waiting for the bell. His gray eyes foll

The second Kade slammed that Montreal player into the boards I knew the night would end with us destroying each other.The road game turned nasty fast. Cheap shots flew from every Montreal jersey. Late in the third one of their big forwards lined me up with his elbow high ready to take my head off.
THE CAPTAIN AND THE KILLER Chapter 2: Forced Watch
The second Coach Harlan said my name that morning I knew Kade Volkov was about to become my personal nightmare.Practice ran us into the ground. We skated hard lines and battle drills until my legs burned. Guys were still buzzing from last nights win but the new guy moved through it all like he had
