Bonus Chapter 17 – Cabin Getaway: Fireplace Worship (20-Year Anniversary Escape)

Eli POV

The cabin was buried deep in the Colorado pines no cell signal, no nearby lights, only snow-laden branches brushing the roof and the steady pop of the stone fireplace Dante had stoked to life the second we stepped through the door.

We’d made the long winter drive for our twentieth wedding anniversary nothing and no one else invited. No Lila texting from campus, no dogs sprawled across the living-room flo

    What if Bonus Chapter 20: What If They Met at a Beach at Sunset? Dante POV The beach was almost empty as the sun dipped toward the horizon, painting the sky in deep oranges and pinks. I’d come here after a long week of training camp to clear my head, barefoot in the sand, letting the waves wash over my ankles. At six-three, I stood out against the open shoreline, but tonight I wanted the quiet. A little further down the beach, another figure stood watching the same sunset. Slimmer build, messy hair tousled by the sea breeze, silver nail polish catching the last rays of light on his fingers. He was noticeably shorter than me, wearing a simple white linen shirt that fluttered in the wind and rolled-up shorts. There was something peaceful yet quietly chaotic about the way he stood there, arms wrapped loosely around himself, lost in thought. I walked closer, the sand shifting under my feet. “Beautiful, isn’t it?” I said, stopping a respectful distance away. He turned, surprised, th

    What if Bonus Chapter 19: What If They Met at a Charity Auction – Dante “Bought” Eli for a Date? Dante POV The charity auction ballroom glittered with soft lighting and quiet chatter. I was there as a favor to my team’s foundation — one of the athletes up for auction to raise money for youth sports programs. I stood on stage in a fitted black suit, feeling slightly ridiculous as the auctioneer called out bids for “a private dinner with our star quarterback.” Bidding climbed steadily until a voice from the back called out a number that made the room hush. “Ten thousand dollars.” The gavel came down. I scanned the crowd and found the bidder — a slimmer man standing near the back, silver nail polish catching the light on his fingers, messy hair, wearing a simple navy suit that fit him perfectly. He was noticeably shorter than my six-three frame, but the confident little smile on his face made something low and warm curl in my stomach. “Sold to bidder number 47!” the auctioneer anno

    What if Bonus Chapter 18: What If Eli’s Bike Broke Down Near Dante’s House? Dante POV The evening was warm, the kind of late summer night where the air still held the heat of the day. I was just getting home from a long practice, duffel bag slung over my shoulder, when I spotted someone on the side of the quiet residential street struggling with a bicycle. The guy was crouched beside the bike, tools scattered on the pavement, muttering under his breath. Slim build, messy hair falling into his eyes, silver nail polish catching the streetlight on his fingers. He was noticeably shorter than my six-three frame. His t-shirt clung slightly to his back from the effort, and there was something endearingly chaotic about the way he was trying to fix the chain. “Need a hand?” I asked, stopping a few feet away. He looked up, startled, then offered a sheepish smile. “Yeah… Eli. Chain keeps slipping and I have no idea what I’m doing. I was just trying to get home after a long day.” “Dante. Co

    What if Bonus Chapter 17: What If They Met at a Concert – Mosh Pit Chaos? Dante POV The outdoor concert venue was packed and pulsing under the night sky. The band was midway through their set, bass thumping through my chest like a second heartbeat. I stood near the edge of the crowd, tall enough at six-three to see over most heads, enjoying the energy without getting crushed in the center. Then the mosh pit surged. A wave of bodies pushed forward, and suddenly a slimmer guy was stumbling backward, losing his balance right in front of me. I caught him instinctively, one arm wrapping around his waist to steady him. He looked up, breathless, silver nail polish catching the flashing stage lights on his fingers. Messy hair, flushed cheeks, noticeably shorter than me. “Shit—thanks. Eli.” “Dante,” I said, still holding him for a second longer than necessary. “You okay?” “Yeah. Just got swallowed by the pit. Not my usual scene.” We ended up standing together as the music roared on. T

    What If Bonus Chapter 16: What if They Met on a Hiking Trail Mix-Up? Dante POV The hiking trail was supposed to be a quiet escape after a brutal week of two-a-day practices. I’d driven up to the mountains alone, needing fresh air and silence to clear my head. The path was well-marked, but after an hour of steady climbing, I realized I’d taken a wrong fork somewhere. The trail narrowed, trees closing in, and I was clearly off the main route. That’s when I heard rustling ahead and a frustrated sigh. A guy was standing in the middle of the path, map app open on his phone, looking lost. Slimmer build, messy hair slightly damp from the effort, silver nail polish catching the dappled sunlight on his fingers. He was noticeably shorter than my six-three frame, wearing a simple t-shirt and shorts, backpack slung over one shoulder. “Lost too?” I asked, stepping closer. He looked up, surprised, then offered a sheepish smile. “Eli. Yeah… I was trying to find the overlook, but the app keeps
