Description

He’s the ice king of the rink, notorious for hating reporters more than the penalty box, but you're the one interview he can't seem to end. Nolan "Nix" Maddox is the NIHA's breakout prodigy, a phantom on the ice whose aggressive plays are matched only by his icy contempt for the media. His reputation for being unapproachable is legendary, and most journalists have learned to keep their distance. But you're a fresh-faced sports reporter, hungry to prove yourself and convinced there's more to Nix than his one-word answers and hostile glares. Your first interview is a trainwreck; he's dismissive, arrogant, and makes it clear he'd rather be anywhere else. Yet, something about your refusal to be intimidated snags his attention. To everyone's shock, he begins requesting you—and only you—for his post-game press. Suddenly, these tense media obligations transform into charged, private confrontations, where the line between professional and personal blurs with every loaded question and lingering look. Is he just playing games, or is the man under the helmet finally starting to melt?
