He broke my heart. Now he’s trying to break me on the ice.
Jude
We were good once.
Late nights, shared ice, stolen moments no one else got to see.
Then Dmitri ended it like it meant nothing.
No real explanation. No fight.
Now he’s on the other side of the rink, checking me into the boards like I’m just another opponent.
Like I don’t know the way his hands feel.
Like I don’t matter.
I should hate him.
It would be easier if I did.
But every glance, every hit, every second we’re on the ice together… feels like he’s trying to say something he won’t let himself finish.
Dmitri
Breaking Jude was the only way to protect him.
He just doesn’t know it.
So I play the villain.
The bad hit. The cold shoulder. The guy who walked away without looking back and couldn’t care less.
It’s easier if he hates me.
Safer if he believes I never cared.
But he still looks at me like he’s waiting for the truth, and every time, it almost cracks me open.
Because I remember everything.
And if he ever finds out why I left…
He won’t just hate me.
He’ll never forgive me.
