WE MET under a multitude of improbabilities. For starters, I almost didn’t
go to the party that night. Earlier in the week, I’d been in a car accident. It
was my brother’s fault. He’d veered off the road, trying to avoid hitting a
deer. He was successful but killed two coyotes that were left wedged
between the front bumper and an oak tree. Needless to say, Mr. PETA was a
mess. He broke his left arm. I got a couple of stitches on my jaw. Our
mother acted like the world was coming to an end. Local newspapers and
magazines plastered my face across their front pages: Fairview Hockey Star
in Car Accident. It was all very dramatic.

Two days later, I was back on the ice, scoring the goal that pushed us
into the semifinals. Usually, it was something I would want to celebrate, but
I was dealing with a killer headache and had to be up early to help my
brother move his shit to his girlfriend’s place. Besides, I’d already done this
celebration twice. This year would mark the third in a row if we could pull
it off. I didn’t see why we wouldn’t, as long as I was starting. I wasn’t being
cocky. The Fairview Hockey Team was trash before I decided to come here
four years ago. Once I signed, I’d gotten a few other players to sign, and we
dominated.
I’d been an underdog my whole life before I started playing hockey. I
also had a chip on my shoulder the size of Alaska. These days, it was more
like Georgia since I finally got my deserved recognition. I was revered as
one of the best players in the country; I already had a lucrative contract
presented to me by a professional team last year to prove it.
My friends thought I was crazy to pass it up. My advisor harped on it
for months before he let it go. I had a plan. I’d finish my four years here,
sign as a free agent with my dream team, and get even more money and
opportunities. It wasn’t just the money for me, but it would help. I wouldn’t
have to rely on my deadbeat father anymore. To be fair, my father wasn’t a
deadbeat by anyone else’s standards. No, Henry Duke, heir to Duke Tech
Enterprises — a now billion-dollar company that provided the government
and elites with information and security — was a fucking golden boy. I’d
received a full-ride on a hockey scholarship, but Liam would have relied on
grants and loans had it not been for Henry Duke paying his tuition in full.
