No Pun Intended

KaelRiven’s father sat down heavily in the chair beside my bed. For a long moment, he didn’t speak. His eyes were red-rimmed, like he hadn’t slept in days.Finally, his voice came out rough and thick with emotion.“Thank you,” he whispered. “For saving my wife. You didn’t have to do that. Not after everything I put you through. I… I don’t deserve your help, but you still gave it. Thank you, Kael.”He wiped at his eyes quickly, trying to hide the tears.I stayed quiet, watching him.He took a shaky breath and continued. “I’m sorry. For how I treated you. For threatening you with your father’s secret. For forcing you to break my son’s heart. I was scared. I thought I was protecting Riven, but I was only hurting him. I was stupid. I refused to accept him — his sexuality, the fact that he’s an omega, everything that makes him who he is. I see now how wrong I was.”He looked down at his hands. “Ever since you two ended things… the spark in Riven’s eyes is gone. He’s been empty. I did that

Can I?

RivenWe lay on the cold ice, chests heaving, staring at each other like the rest of the world had disappeared. The kiss I gave him moments ago still lingered on my lips. My heart was racing so hard I could feel it in my throat.Kael’s eyes were dark, full of everything we’d been holding back for a month. “Riven…” he whispered, his voice rough.I didn’t let him finish. I leaned down again and kissed him — deeper this time. Messy. Desperate. Our mouths moved together like we were starving, tongues sliding, lips pressing hard, teeth grazing. A soft, wet sound filled the empty rink as we devoured each other. His hand came up to cup the back of my neck, fingers threading through my hair, pulling me closer. I moaned into his mouth, the sound vibrating between us.We broke apart only when we needed air, foreheads pressed together, breaths mingling.“I missed you so fucking much,” Kael breathed.I didn’t answer with words. I just kissed him again, slower this time, savoring the taste of him.

So, this is love?

RivenWe decided to go back to the hospital together. Kael’s hand found mine as we stepped out of the locker room, fingers lacing tightly. We didn’t hide it. We walked through the parking lot like that — two rival hockey players holding hands in public. People recognized us almost immediately. Phones came out, cameras flashed, whispers spread. But we didn’t care. Not anymore.We got into a taxi. The whole ride, Kael kept his thumb stroking the back of my hand. It felt like the only thing keeping me grounded.When we reached the hospital, I saw my father standing in the hallway. The moment our eyes met, I looked away, jaw tight. All the hurt from before came rushing back.Kael squeezed my hand gently. “I know your father disappointed you. He pissed you off. But just… give him a chance. Please.”I looked at Kael for a long time, then at my father, who was watching me with regret in his eyes. I sighed heavily.Dad walked up slowly and took my other hand. His voice cracked.“I’m sorry, Ri

RivenThe stadium was electric.Thousands of fans filled the seats, chants echoing off the walls as the Vipers faced off against one of the league’s strongest teams. I sat in the stands, hood up, heart hammering in my chest. I wasn’t playing tonight. Coach had given me the night off after everything that had happened but I couldn’t stay away. I needed to see Kael play.The game was intense. Fast-paced, physical, every shift full of energy. Kael was on fire. He skated like a man with something to prove, threading passes, throwing checks, and scoring two beautiful goals. Every time he flew down the ice, my chest tightened with pride and nerves.When the final buzzer sounded, the Vipers had won 4-2. The crowd erupted. I stood up with them, clapping hard, a wide smile breaking across my face after what felt like forever.Then, over the speakers, I heard Kael’s name called.“Kael Dravin, you can now come to the ice.”The arena quieted a little as Kael skated to the middle of the rink, stil

KaelI thought it was time.Riven had been through enough, and so had I. After everything that happened, I wanted our families to start healing too. So one evening, I brought it up while we were lying in bed.“I think you should come with me to visit my dad,” I said softly, tracing circles on his arm. “Just dinner. No pressure.”Riven tensed immediately. He looked nervous, almost shy, biting the inside of his cheek. “I don’t know, Kael… what if he doesn’t like me? What if it’s awkward?”“He already knows about us,” I reassured him, kissing his temple. “And he’s been asking about you. Come on. For me?”He hesitated for a long moment, then sighed. “Okay. I’ll go.”***The dinner was at my family home. The table was full — Dad at the head, May beside him, and Riven sitting right next to me. At first, things were surprisingly smooth. Dad and Riven clicked faster than I expected. They talked hockey, strategies, and even old games. Dad laughed at one of Riven’s jokes, and I felt something w
