Chapter 41

Knox’s PovHis last words weren't threats, but they burned my skin like metal piercing through my bones.I clenched my jaw, not because I was angry, but because I tried to suppress the moan that threatened to escape my lips.“So, what are we?” He changed the conversation, pulling me back from my endless pool of sexual fantasies.I parted my lips to speak but didn't know what to say to him. I wanted to be in a relationship with him, but I was scared. Scared of what the people would say, scared of my parents, and scared of losing my career.“I want a relationship with you.” Finn's lips slowly curled, but his expression faltered the moment he heard the hesitation in my voice.“But…”The joyous expression on his face fell, and he pressed his lips together, exhaling.“But what? What exactly is the matter? Can you explain to me?” I pressed my lips, lowering my shoulders.Maybe it was time to tell him.“I'm worried about what my family would think and about my career. My dad will cut off

Finn’s pov“Would you come to watch me practice?” Knox's question caused me to turn my head over his shoulder. I was already prepared for class, and he wasn't anywhere near prepared.“You're supposed to be ready for class, aren't you?” He hummed. “I don't feel like.” I directed my body towards him then crossed my hands over my chest, staring at him as I tried to observe what happened.“You're trying to avoid a conversation with her, aren't you?” He furrowed both brows and pulled his eyes away from me.“No. I just don't want to see her.” I took a pause, then tried to close the distance between us.“Would seeing her make you change your mind about us?” He snapped his face back to my direction, eyes boring into mine.“No!” The way he defended his thoughts made me raise my eyebrows. I was stunned to see how much he tried to avoid her.“Staying away from her would only make her suspect us more, don't you think?” He sighed. “I know, but I need to give her time to heal. She's so dram

Finn’s pov“I am gay.”I waited for his reaction, but all I got was silence. His eyes stared into mine, and then he shook his head.“So wait, that's all you've been hiding from me, the fact that you're gay?” I used my palms to cover his mouth, and he struggled for a few seconds.“Shh. I thought it was supposed to be our little secret, huh?” He glared at me.“You call that little? This changes everything!” “Do… do you hate me?” My voice cracked as I stared at him.His face scrunched up in disgust, “What? No! God no, I am just..” he shook his head. “You just don't look….”He stopped mid-sentence, “I don't look gay?” I completed his words. His eyes widened, “I didn't mean it that way….”I let out a low laugh, “I know what you mean, but yeah,” I muttered. Then he paused, his eyes opening wide before he pulled his head back a bit.“Does Knox know about this?”

Knox’s PovA FEW HOURS EARLIERI directed the puck, my heart racing. Just one right shot, and I would make it one goal after so many attempts.I was this close but stopped when the coach blew his whistle.“Gather round,” the coach said to grab our attention. It seemed he wanted to address us about something.The moment I walked towards where the coach was, my eyes searched the arena. Finn was nowhere to be seen, but Calista? She was seated there.The moment our eyes met, she stretched her lips into a smile. I shook my head; wasn't she tired of the back and forth? Why didn't she read the lines I tried to paint? I broke up with her. Yet, she still didn't want to give up.I pulled my eyes away, and by the time I fixed my eyes on my coach, he was already talking.“I like the energy I'm getting from you all, especially you.” I was stunned to see he didn't point to me this time, but to Jason.Was he in the rink?I guess I didn't see him properly because of his protective gear.“Thanks, coac

Finn’s PovSince I left the room, I couldn't stop thinking about Knox. What happened, and who had he beaten up to the extent of sustaining some injuries on his hands? I sighed, then my eyes widened.“Jason…” I sprang up from the hidden corner I was seated in, cleaning the dust off my pants before heading to the only person I felt had answers to my questions.I tapped gently on the door the moment I arrived, my heart drumming. I pressed my lips in a tight line, hoping Jason would open the door.I exhaled when he did. After three attempts, I turned to the door and exhaled when I didn't notice any bruises on his face, but I noticed his hair was wet, almost like he had just come out of the shower. “Finn, how are you?” I pressed my lips, starting to regret why I came here. I didn't want any forms of conversation.“Why are you out so late?” He opened his door and gestured for me to come in, but I shook my head

Finn’s PovI closed my eyes, fisting my hands. Sex wasn't the solution now. I knew I wanted to thrust the fuck out of his ass, but I needed to know what happened.Was Jason right?Was he really out of control?I blew hot air out of my lips, opening my eyes only to find his face just inches away from mine.“I need you, please…” He tried to capture my lips, but I placed my hand in the way.“No.” He blinked, then pulled back. “What?” His brows were drawn, his lips parted, but no words came out, so I went ahead to speak.“I want to know what happened. There's obviously something wrong, isn't there?” His eyes flicked left to right before settling on my face again. His expression tightened.“I really don't know what to say. I—” I interrupted him, telling him exactly what I wanted to hear.“I just need to know what happened. What made you so angry when you returned?”He groaned. “Really? Is that what this is about?” I sighed. “I'm scared you're becoming a monster. I don't know what mi

Knox’s Pov “Look, I don't know what you're talking about, but you can't be here. Do you understand? This is my dorm.” She scoffed. “I can't be here. Yet, you share it with him; what a way to support equality.” “He's a boy!” “But he's not in your class.” She had responses to everything I said even when it wasn't as serious as she made it look. “Look, I appreciate you coming, but you have to leave.” She froze, then shook her head. “You still haven't told me what the hell is going on. I know you might not want to say a word to me, but believe me, I will find out.” I used my hands to massage my temples, mumbling a few words as she kept ranting. “Why does he suddenly seem so important to you?” She pointed at Finn, her gaze dark and threatening. At the same time, I noticed she had been trying to hold back tears. “You

Chapter 48

Finn’s PovI stood out in the hallway, my back resting against the wall with my left leg relaxing as extra support.I was tense. Sweat formed on my forehead, and I wondered what would happen.Would she be able to convince him to return to her? I exhaled, running my hands through my hair. However, I snapped my head towards our dorm's door that had been drawn open, and my eyes trailed Calista as she ran past me.She sobbed with her palms over her eyes, running as fast as she could.My eyes widened, and only one thought played in my mind. What exactly did he tell her?I didn't wait; I increased my pace, shutting the door Calista had left open behind me.I noticed how Knox was seated on the bed, eyes staring at the floor blankly. Whatever he told her was definitely something that affected them both deeply.I saw the red mark on his cheek, probably from a slap he had gotten from her; I wasn't so sure.I pressed my lips, wondering if this was the perfect time to ask him what had happened.

Knox’s povThe next morning, Finn was already prepared for class. I could see the worry in his eyes when he reached the door.“You're skipping class today?” I sighed.“There's one thing I didn't tell you last night.” He blinked, raised his brows, and immediately let go of the doorknob. He walked over to my side and took a seat. “We... We can talk later; you're going to be late.” His brows furrowed. “I have like thirty minutes. Does this also have to do with why you're skipping class today?” He paused for a few seconds. “Did you actually tell her we were a couple?” I shook my head, my eyes showing surprise. “No, that's not it. It's about my…” I sighed, lowering my shoulders.“It's about my hockey career.” He widened his eyes, blinking. “You got in trouble with the coach for beating up Ace?” I nodded. He took a deep breath to calm himself down and then placed his hands on my knees. “What kind of trouble?” It was becoming harder to say now that he was staring at me.“I was suspe

Chapter 50

Finn’s PovI paced back and forth, my hand trembling as my mind roamed around the reason Dean might have called him. He obviously did something wrong by beating Ace up, but I feared that wasn't the reason.What if the main reason he was called was because he hurt Calista?My heart thudded, and I felt my chest tighten. I really couldn't go to the Dean's office; my presence would be questioned, and that wasn't what I wanted.“You have to stay calm. I'm sure he'll be back soon.” I tried to pep myself, but that wasn't happening.Just when I felt I was about to explode, I heard the door open. I snapped my head towards the direction, my body following.“Knox.” I wasn't calm; I took quick steps and hugged him the moment I could.The hug was long, and he hugged me back, but I pulled away, my eyes searching for him. “I was so worried.” I started. “What happened?” I kept asking questions, but he remained quiet. This only made me worry more. The look on his face showed me there was definit
