I cupped her face, planting a soft kiss on her beautiful lips. "Don't ever run from me, baby," I said softly, letting my thumb trace her jaw. "I love the chase." Her jaw tightened, her hands coming up to try and move mine. "Stop calling me baby, Ezra," she snapped, eyes flashing. I couldn't help but grin, dropping my voice to something low and dark. "Ohhh, now my baby has a problem with me calling her baby?" She shot me a glare, but I just tucked her hair behind her ear, pressing another kiss to her lips-gentler this time, lingering. "You don't get to tell me what to call you, baby." I leaned in closer, brushing my nose against hers. "You're whatever the fuck I call you."

"Will it kill you to back the fuck up?" I snapped. "Yes, princess," he whispered sweetly against my ear, voice full of that sick affection. "It would. I would drop dead right here if I couldn't be next to you." "My lucky day," I muttered sarcastically.

Dean blinked, not understanding. Not fully. "Sick how?" Rosie pressed a hand to her chest. Pain flared beneath her palm. Sharp now. Wrong. "I'm sick," she repeated. Dean stepped forward immediately. "Okay. I'll take you home. You'll feel better tomorrow." The gentleness in his voice broke her. "No, Dean." Her knees weakened. Beau caught her elbow. "Rosie." She looked at them both through tears. For weeks, she had imagined telling them. Not like this. Never like this. Not in a bar with music pounding and her heart misfiring in her chest.

*STORY IS 18+ AND CONTAINS MATURE CONTENT* Alana Graham doesn't do hockey players; they're strictly off limits to her. Except for the one that she knows out of all of them she should stay the furthest away from. John Logan is her brother's best friend and teammate. For years she denies her feelings, pushes Logan away in order to protect herself but also... To protect him from her past that she refuses to share with anyone. Not even her two best friends, Hannah and Allie. Although this hockey playing mechanic not only thaws the ice around her guarded heart, he fixes it as well.

To be loved is to be seen. Gemma Graham is high fashion, pastel pink, and perfectly curated-a striking contrast to the sea of sweatpants at Briar University. But beneath her flawless eyeliner lies deep-seated anxiety and a severe panic response left behind by her volatile, emotionally abusive father, sports mogul Phil Graham. To keep her cracks from showing, Gemma keeps everyone at arm's length. Especially her hyper-protective older brother, hockey captain Garret. Beau Maxwell Briar's star defensive lineman and a projected top-five NFL draft pick, he's a 260-pound mountain of pure muscle, effortless charm, and locker-room banter. He's also Garrett's friend, making Gemma strictly off-limits. But when Beau witnesses Gemma freeze during a severe panic attack, his protective instincts completely take over.

Madison Graham was never good at keeping secrets. Especially from her brother. But what happens when she grows closer to someone she is definitely not supposed to? Someone that Garrett himself has forbidden from touching her. John Logan x OC
