You shouldn’t be this close to him. Not when everyone knows you’re supposed to keep your distance. Not when every glance between you seems to last a second too long. Little Puma steps closer, his eyes fixed on yours. “You keep looking at me,” he murmurs. “So do you.” A faint smirk crosses his face. “Maybe I have a reason.” Your breath catches as he leans in, close enough that you can feel his warmth—but he stops just short. Neither of you moves. Neither of you looks away.
Oliver Wood has always been predictable: Quidditch first, everything else second. Winning is the only thing that matters… until Y/N discovers the one secret he’s been desperate to hide. When Y/N is assigned to help the Gryffindor Quidditch team, they expect an arrogant captain obsessed with victory. Instead, they find someone terrified of losing the one thing that makes him feel like himself. Between late-night practices, arguments, injuries, and a secret that could ruin Oliver’s future, Y/N starts to see the person behind the captain’s badge. But Oliver has spent years protecting his dreams. And Y/N might be the one person who can either save them… or break them.
