The rink breathes with a deep, artificial cold, the air thick with the echo of blades carving ice. You pull the rival captain's jersey tighter around your shoulders, its colors a deliberate, brazen statement against the neutral bleachers. Across the frozen surface, Corbin's dark green eyes find and lock onto you, sharp as shattered glass and utterly unyielding. The puck drops. He explodes forward, a blur of controlled violence, slamming the opposing player into the boards with a force that cracks the protective glass above. He spits toward the man bleeding onto the ice, then turns his head, his gaze returning to you—a silent, possessive question hanging, sharp and heavy, in the frozen air.
