Chapter 1

The cold air stung his pale skin as he tightened a scarf around his neck. It had been a difficult semester for Casey Meindert as he balanced school work, extracurricular activities, and a social life. But now all of that was behind him. He was finally on break and he was going to enjoy it.

Born and raised in the States, Casey jumped at the opportunity to study in New Zealand through a study abroad program. He loved the new and exciting environment, but he was exhausted from the arduous work schedule the school demanded of him. At last, he could relax on the beautiful slopes of the southern Alps.

Casey had always been a winter baby. He loved the cold and the snow and hated the summer heat. So arriving at the Rocky Vista ski resort was like a dream come true. Bending down, he grabbed his suitcase before walking toward the warm-looking log cabin, adorned with impressive wood carvings all around. He was going to spend a month at the resort, and he was already excited to put on his gear and get on the ski lift.

Before that, however, he had to check in. Accordingly he made his way into the oppressively warm log cabin. There was a large fire crackling loudly at the back of the reception hall. A crowd of skiers was huddled around it, trying to warm their toes and fingers back to life. A lot of people enjoyed skiing, but almost no one liked the bitter cold associated with it, except for Casey.

With a bright smile, he walked up to the check-in desk, his blue eyes gently rolling over the well-built man sitting there. The receptionist looked up at the young student before grabbing his reservation. A small frown crept up onto Casey’s face as he noticed the man’s rude demeanor. He ran his fingers through his choppy red hair as he took a look around the building. As his eyes fell on a wooden sculpture of a dragon, the man spoke up, breaking his concentration.

“All set. Second floor. Room 22B.” Casey nodded, grabbing his keys, completely forgetting about the wooden sculpture as he once again grabbed his bags and walked up the stairs to the second floor. He found his room to be the last door on the left. He looked at the old wooden door before entering his new temporary residence.

It was a tiny room with a twin-sized bed, a small kitchen area, and an even smaller bathroom. He placed his bags on the ground and walked up to the long curtains that hid the room’s French doors. He pulled them down and gasped at the million-dollar view. With great satisfaction on his face, he opened up the window before stepping onto the balcony.

The snow stuck to his pale skin, blending in to his complexion before finally melting away and dripping down onto his neck.
