Synopsis:
Chadworth, a prestigious university located in Upstate New York.
In a place where ice hockey is practically a religion, the god of the campus is the hockey team captain, Tristan Lockwood.
'They say his nickname is a walking Powerball. Meeting him is like winning the lottery for your life.'
On the other hand, Kora, who had to give up her dream of being a figure skater due to poverty, is perhaps the person in the most opposite position to him.
If there is any common ground between the two, first, it is that they both shine brightest on the ice rink.
Second, it is that they both hate losing more than death.
Kora snaps at Tristan when he shows up at the pub where she works and starts picking a fight.
"Want a pro tip for real life?"
"Sure."
"It's not a good idea to annoy the person making your drink, Captain."
Because you have no idea what I might put in it.
Tristan, catching the meaning instantly, burst into a hearty laugh.
A strange mixture of excitement and amusement swirled in his blue-gray eyes. Like a devil who had discovered an interesting toy for the first time in a long while.
Was it from then?
She began to get entangled with him so frequently that it was suspicious to call it a coincidence...
To make matters worse, after being paired with Tristan for a group project, Kora is forced to text him first.
But what kind of trick is this? His reply came with an attached photo of a cute cat.
「My cat.」
「Cutest in person.」
「Want to come see?」
Kora's eyes narrowed as she read the text.
"Want to come see?" in the middle of the night. Isn't this a textbook booty call?
Surely he isn't using a cat as a tool to lure women in?
'That sly fox... this feels dangerous.'
Despite her resolve to never get involved with Tristan, Kora ends up spending a night with him...
