I sold my soul to the devil the day I was born, I just didn’t realize it at the
time, but now he wants to collect with my signature on the dotted line. It
doesn’t matter that the devil in question just so happens to be my father,
or that the deal was made to protect my sister. No, the only thing that
matters now is that I have no other option than to marry someone that my
father approves of. My father, Hugo Peters, esteemed Mayor of the town of
Fairfield, and a complete joke of a family man. I hate him, and I know hate
is a strong word, but if I could come up with one solitary word for how I
feel about the man who raised me, that’s what it would be. Hate.

My childhood was basically a silent war that I was ill-equipped to fight
at the time, and worse, I wasn’t the only person I had to protect from the
battle. My little sister Madeline is the only one in this world that I truly
love, and I would do anything for her. Which doesn’t sound like the burden
that it is, but unfortunately, just as I know that fact, my father does too, and
he wields it against me often.
The only escape I ever had from him was hockey. From the moment I
picked up my first stick and whacked it against my first puck, everything
changed. It was my cold solace that eased the burn of the hell I was
growing up in. It used to be the one thing I could count on, the one thing
that could keep me grounded no matter what was happening, but I haven’t
felt at home on the ice in a long time. There was once a time where the
game felt fun and easy, where scoring a goal and winning a match meant
everything to me, but as of right now, I can’t quite remember when I lost
that.
I guess it started when my father realized I didn’t want to follow him
into a career in politics. It was a speech I’d heard a thousand times about
how his father was in politics, how his grandfather was in politics, and that
it was just what Peters’ men were meant for. He doesn’t care about my love
for the game, or my aspirations to be in the NHL. No, the only thing he
cares about is the fact that I am a disappointment to the family, something
he has made more than clear in private, but that doesn’t stop him from
singing my false praises in public any chance he gets.
We have never seen eye to eye, not since I was old enough to
understand the type of man he truly is, and all I have done since is try and
shield my sister from him. A matter that he recently pushed the boundaries
of like never before, when he tried to blackmail her into marrying his
business associate’s son, Bradley Thorne. Something I quickly rectified as
soon as I was aware of it of course.
