Beak Performance: A Fangs on Ice Novella

By Rhea Fox

As the captain of the Veitsreuth Pumas, Arne Bendixen prides himself on keeping a cool head. But when the team's newest recruit-a reclusive, feathered young Night Raven with eyes full of shadows-walks into his life, Arne's steady world tilts on its axis.

Max Gruber didn't expect to fall for his captain. He's here to play hockey, prove himself, and maybe survive a season without anyone discovering that he dreams of Arne-and sometimes, that Arne dreams back. But when a kiss on the last night of training camp turns into something far more intimate, the two find themselves tangled in more than shadow tentacles.

Their relationship is intense, secret, and fated. But with one wrong move threatening their contracts and reputations, Arne and Max must choose between safety and everything their hearts want.

Because sometimes love isn't about timing-it's about knowing who's yours, no matter the odds.

Beak Performance is a cozy, high-heat MM monster romance filled with emotional depth, dream-walking magic, and a guaranteed HEA.
