“I’m sorry,” I breathe.

“Whoa, those things are banned as well, remember?”

“Shit. Do we have aFreaky Fridaysituation on our hands here? I swear, if I walk in the kitchen and am suddenly a culinary genius, I’m gonna freak the hell out.”

Freya's body trembles a beat before the most incredible sound hits my ear. A happy giggle.

“I’m not sure I’m willing to stand in goal during a hockey game, if that’s what this looks like. I’m way too small and weak for that.”

An image of Freya in full pads fills my head, and I can’t lie, my cock instantly jerks to life.

“I’m pretty sure you just unlocked a new fantasy,” I confess, grinding myself against her ass, just to make sure she can feel it.

“Really?” She balks. “Me in all your hockey gear is going to be the opposite of sexy.”

“I have to disagree. I think you’d look incredible.”

“Hmm…I’m not seeing it.”

“Hopefully one day I will.”

“You’re a menace,” she teases before falling quiet. Suddenly, I understand how she knew I was freaking out.

“How are you feeling?” I ask.

She takes a moment to consider her answer, causing my heart to start racing.

She’s regretting everything.

She wants to leave.

She—

“I know you wanted me to be able to walk this morning so that I could make breakfast, but I’m not sure that’s going to be possible.”

I’m pretty sure I release the most enormous sigh of relief ever.

“If that’s all the problems we have, I’ll take it.”

“I think we both know that we probably have more issues than my legs waiting for us.”

“Hmm,” I mumble, still wanting to lock us up in a bubble of denial.

Silence falls between us as we drift off into our own thoughts.

Eventually, Freya twists herself around in my arms so we’re facing each other.

“How much do you know about him?” Freya asks hesitantly.

“Enough to know that our cells are probably blowing up as we speak.”

“Yeah,” she agrees.

“I was never anything but a pawn in his games,” she starts, but I reach out and press my fingers to her lips.

“You don’t have to explain anything.”

Her eyes lower, severing our connection for a moment. But before I know it, she’s back with me.
