The arena’s heavy silence shattered under the violent scrape of hockey blades against the boards. Luca, the massive captain, stood motionless amid his boisterous team, his gaze locking onto you with a scrutiny that felt physical. Conrad Vance watched from the shadows, a ghost in the young leader’s play. When Luca unleashed a perfect, lethal shot—mirroring Vance’s legendary style—the air grew thick and still. As Vance departed, leaving a card and a command, Luca pushed off, skating closer to the stunned figure skater, the tension between them crackling like static.
