Cross Blades - Jackie J.M.

Once inseparable, my best friend and I were torn apart after a night of fiery passion-a memory forever etched in my mind, its details lost in a hazy fog. Now, Alex May is my bitter rival, his indifference cutting deeper than any blade. The looming national state championships intensify the stakes, fueling the fire of that unforgettable night.
In the arena's dim light, tension crackles. Each stride, each thud of the puck, echoes unspoken words. The remnants of our once unbreakable bond intertwine with a burning desire for vindication.
I yearn to reach out to Alex, hoping he'll give me a second chance. But his walls are high, his heart guarded. Will he ever forgive me for the mistakes of our past and allow love to mend our broken connection?
