Steel and Ice
Jason Collins
Colt Mitchell breaks men for a living.
After a viral fight, hockey’s most feared enforcer lands in my anger management group. He doesn’t belong in therapy. Everyone knows what follows wreckage, headlines, women.
I’m trained for violent men. But Colt won’t be trained. He claims the corner, counts the exits, and studies me like a predator deciding where to bite.
His file says straight. Tabloids show beautiful women on his arm. I don’t fit the profile. Colt looks at me anyway.
In group, I hold the room. After hours, Colt appears where he shouldn’t. Restricted corridors, a midnight shadow beneath my window. Not chance—stalking.
Protocol requires documentation and recusal; policy is clear. I’m not.
I should report him. Instead, I strike his name from the record. His voice is the verdict; his hands, the penalty. If this goes public, my career ends—on paper, I’d forfeit my license. But paper won’t bar the door.
He’s at the threshold.
