SYNOPSIS Ich habe mich an einer reinen Alpha-Hockey-Akademie für Jungen eingeschrieben, um den Mann zu zerstören, der meinen Vater gebrochen hat. Ich hätte nie erwartet, dass zwei Alphas versuchen würden, mein Herz zu beanspruchen. Mein Name ist Eliana Vance. Doch hinter den eisernen Toren der Northfell Hockey Academy bin ich Eli. Ein schmächtiger Beta-Junge. Niemand. Eine sorgfältig aufgebaute Lüge, verborgen unter Kompressionsband und illegalen Duftblockern. Mein Vater war ein legendärer Coach, bis Gregory Ashford ihn vernichtete und unsere Familie in den Ruin trieb. Jetzt bin ich hier, um sein Imperium von innen heraus zu Fall zu bringen. Mein Plan war einfach. Unsichtbar bleiben. Trainieren. Überleben. Warten. Dann kam Theo Ashford. Kalt. Gefährlich. Der Alpha-Kapitän, der das Eis beherrscht wie ein König. Er sollte mein Feind sein. Doch seine Aufmerksamkeit haftet an mir, seine Instinkte kommen mir zu nahe. Als er mich an die Bande drängt und behauptet, ich würde nach ihm riechen, beginnt meine Kontrolle zu bröckeln. Und dann ist da Logan Hayes. Warm. Unerschütterlich. Der Star-Stürmer, der hinter meine Maske blickt und beschließt, mich zu beschützen. Bei ihm vergesse ich den Schmerz. Seine Nähe fühlt sich sicher an, fast wie ein Zuhause, das ich längst verloren habe. Doch meine Tarnung hält nicht mehr lange. Die Duftblocker versagen. Mein Geheimnis droht ans Licht zu kommen. Und zwei mächtige Alphas stehen kurz davor, gegeneinander zu kämpfen wegen eines Mädchens, das sie für einen Jungen halten. Der eine will mich kontrollieren. Der andere will mich retten. Aber ich bin nicht hier, um mich zu verlieben. Ich bin hier für Rache. Und wenn alles zerbricht, werde ich entscheiden müssen, was wichtiger ist. Rache. Oder mein Herz.

Als ich Stück für Stück zerschnitten wurde, rief ich mit letzter Kraft meinen Bruder – Lukas Sommer an. Gerade als mein Bewusstsein zu schwinden drohte, nahm er erst ab. Seine Stimme klang voller Unmut. „Was ist denn schon wieder?“ „Lukas, hilf mir ...“ Ich konnte nicht weiterreden, er unterbrach mich einfach. „Musstest du denn immer irgendwas haben? Ende des Monats war Lunas Volljährigkeitsfeier. Wenn du nicht gekommen wärst, hätte ich dich umgebracht!“ Dann legte er ohne zu zögern auf. Ich konnte den Schmerz nicht länger ertragen und schloss für immer die Augen. Tränen liefen mir noch über die Wangen. Lukas, du musstest mich nicht umbringen – ich war schon tot.
