Everyone on campus thinks they know the story. Quiet girl gets pregnant by the hockey star. Scandal explodes. Reputations burn. They have the headline right. They have everything else wrong. Elara Vale has spent four years being invisible the girl who blends into walls, who never causes trouble, who is always two steps behind her best friend Ronan Hale and his blinding, consuming orbit. When a pregnancy rumor tears through campus and lands squarely on her name, she becomes the most talked-about person in a school that never once noticed her before. The rumor says Ronan is the father. The rumor is wrong. Because the night everyone is speculating about, the night Elara can barely remember, the night that comes back to her in fragments she doesn't know how to hold wasn't with Ronan at all. It was with Dominic Hale. His father. The most controlled, most dangerous, most quietly devastating man she has ever been in a room with. Ronan wants to claim her. Kieran wants to protect her. Eleanor wants to destroy her. And Dominic, patient, certain, devastating Dominic wants nothing except the one thing no one else in this story has ever offered her. To choose her. Openly. Completely. Whatever it costs him. But Elara has spent her entire life being other people's story. It's time she became her own.

The Hockey Star Wasn't My Baby's Father. His Father Was 067: ELARA POV
067: ELARA POV"You don't have to decide what to do with it tonight."Kieran says it gently before he leaves, glancing once more at the plane ticket now sealed in an evidence bag on my counter. "Once Marcus has fully documented it, you can do whatever you need to with the original. There's no rush.""I know," I say. "I think I already know what I want to do, though."He studies me for a moment, something understanding in his expression. "All right. Whatever helps."After he leaves, I sit alone in the guest wing kitchen for a long while, staring at the sealed bag, the plane ticket visible through the plastic — a date, a destination, a single word stamped across it that I can't stop looking at. *One-way.*She wanted me to see it and understand exactly what it meant. Run, or be forced to eventually, one way or another. A clean, permanent exit from a story she apparently still believes she controls the ending of.I think about the ticket Eleanor sent months ago, in an earlier wave of her

066: KIERAN POV"Four days. Nothing. I've never lost someone this thoroughly before, and I've found people who genuinely didn't want to be found."Marcus's frustration carries clearly through the phone, uncharacteristic for a man who's built his entire career on unflappable patience. I sit up straighter at my desk, feeling my own concern sharpen in response."Walk me through what you have," I say."Her phone went dark the same evening the charges became public. No activity on any of her known financial accounts since. No flight records under her name, no hotel registrations, nothing showing up on the usual channels." Papers shuffle on his end, the sound of a man cross-referencing data he's already checked multiple times. "Either she's using resources I haven't identified yet — cash, false documentation, assistance from someone whose involvement we haven't traced — or she planned this disappearance considerably further in advance than the timing of the charges would suggest.""You thin

065: ELARA POV"This might actually be the first entirely boring week we've had all year."Mia says it over lunch, incredulous, like she's almost afraid to acknowledge the quiet out loud in case naming it makes it disappear. We're sitting in the dining hall, nothing urgent pulling at either of us for the first time in longer than I can remember."Don't jinx it," I say, only half joking."I'm serious, though. No hearings this week. No leaked photos. No threatening texts from Eleanor, as far as I know. Just... classes. Normal, boring classes, and you complaining about a professor's unreasonable reading load like a regular college student.""It has been quiet," I admit, almost disbelieving it myself. "I keep waiting for the other shoe to drop.""Maybe it just doesn't, this time. Maybe you're allowed one normal week."For the next several days, it almost feels true. Classes continue without incident. The viral quad statement fades slowly from the top of everyone's feed, replaced by whatev

064: RONAN POV "Dude, your ex is everywhere right now. Like, everywhere." Danny slides his phone across the locker room bench again, the same way he did weeks ago with the photo, except this time it's a video Elara, standing her ground on the quad, telling a reporter exactly where she stands without flinching once. I watch it twice before saying anything. "She's not my ex," I say finally. "We were never actually together. Childhood friends, mostly." "Whatever you say, man. Point is, she's handling this way better than most people would." Danny takes his phone back, scrolling through the comments with obvious interest. "People are calling her, like, an icon now. Wild turnaround from a few months ago." I watch Elara's statement one more time after Danny moves on to his own locker, studying her face, the steady certainty in her voice, the complete absence of the old fear that used to define nearly every public moment of this entire scandal. She looks, genuinely, like someone who's
