"You, Fenrir Von Albrecht, are an aphrodisiac, and I like it." I kiss him again. "I like it too much." --------- Nico is the Regina Wolves' newest coach. She's an ex-Olympic, ex-homeless, hometown hero, and now she's coaching the worst team in the NHL, and getting somewhere with them. Fenrir is just her starting center, but he's something Nico didn't expect to find in her new job, wicked good, wicked smart, and wicked cute. Coach and player dynamics never work, but maybe that's the fun in it for them. --------- "I can't kiss you, Fen," I mumble. "I can't kiss you because I'd never stop once I start." "Then just hold me here," ------- warning: references to/scenes with PTSD and its effects. ___ (less important warnings: strong language, drinking, injuries, and I better just warn you about Ireland now because that boy is trouble.) UPDATED: MONDAYS AND THURSDAYS HIGHEST RANKS: #2 IN NHL, #2 IN OLYMPICS
