At 23, Elena Moretti had already been Canada's top figure skater and earned a silver medal at the Olympics. But she wasn't happy, she did all this to distract herself from her past but it never worked. Her love, trust and happiness were gone. So did her baby. She couldn't love anymore and wasn't willing to give it a chance. Even when Aiden came into her life. She saw he was different from everybody else, but couldn't bring herself to trust him. She pushed him a little farther yet he always managed to stay besides her during her break downs. He lingered from a distance like her shadow guard, looking out for her. Will she let him in? Can she love again?

Aiden Volkov, a 24 yr old guy moving to a new country to escape his past too. The teammates who looked down on him, took his credit, lied, a captain who cheated with his girlfriend. yeah! Life wasn't good for him so he wanted a flesh start at the Ice Palace in their hockey team, ice kings. No love, he said but the beauty she had made him break his own rule. Wanting to get close, afraid to get hurt again but soon he came to learn she didn't want that too. But he couldn't go further, he stayed there looking out for her, admiring from a distance till the day she could finally open up to him.

Elena's pov
The music seemed to fade with my thoughts. It was a gentle dance, his hands on my waist as mine rested on his shoulders.
His face got close to mine as his eyes shut.
I was caught off guard when his lips touched mine so I quickly pushed him away.
He looked at me guilty of his actions,
"I'm sorry..." He said before leaving to change his skates and walk out of the rink.
I stayed there on edge of crying, there I go again breaking another heart because of my fears. But why did hurting him feel worse?

This is a story of two broken hearts on ice, healing from pasts but the scars still linger close, don't they?
