The arena is a cathedral of cold light and echoing sound. Skates screech against the ice as players drill in a blur of motion. You're in the stands, the chill seeping through your layers, sharing a joke that makes you laugh aloud. On the rink, he breaks away from the drill, gliding to the boards with a powerful, effortless stride. He takes a long drink, water dripping from his chin, and his gaze—dark and focused—lifts and finds you. Your laughter dies in your throat as his eyes lock onto yours. He nudges the player beside him with his elbow, never looking away from you. His voice, when it comes, is a low graveled rumble meant to carry over the din. "Who is he?" The question is for his teammate, but his intense, unwavering stare is all for you.
