    Summary

    A few seconds later, a news anchor’s voice grows to startling clarity. A clip plays of Rozanov shooting from the goal crease and making it into the net.
    “...Montreal Metros to acquire center Ilya Rozanov from the Boston Raiders for the upcoming season. The two teams have sustained a bitter rivalry for years, and it has only worsened worsened with Hollander and Rozanov’s participation. All of this makes the trade an unlikely one; however, it seems to be just the right time for the Metros to snag a star like Rozanov. After many lackluster performances from the Metros these past few months, it only makes sense…”
    The anchor continues as a clip of Rozanov from a post-game interview last year plays—he’s shirtless and sweaty, smirking into the camera. And then he does that…that wink. Shane just stares up at the screen, dumbfounded. He’s not listening to the details anymore, but the words echo in his head.
    Metros to acquire Ilya Rozanov…
    His team to acquire Rozanov.
    “This is bullshit,” he mutters, turning and trying not to stomp off like an upset child.

    OR: Ilya gets traded to Shane's team and Shane is not happy about it

    Summary

    Shane Hollander has spent years building a quiet, careful life for himself and his daughter. No dating, no risks, no alphas.

    Just work, parenting, and keeping Yuki safe in a world that has not always been kind to omegas. Everything changes the moment Yuki slips away from him at a crowded public event and is found in the arms of star hockey player Ilya Rozanov, who handles her with a gentleness that leaves Shane unexpectedly unsteady.

    What should have been a brief, awkward encounter becomes something far more complicated. Yuki adores Ilya on sight. Ilya keeps showing up, offering small kindnesses, sending messages that turn into late-night conversations, and slipping into Shane’s life with a warmth that feels dangerously easy. Shane, who promised himself he would never relay on an alpha, finds himself drawn to the one man he should not want.

    Neither of them understands why their connection feels so instinctive or why being together feels like stepping into a life they have somehow already lived. As their bond deepens and Yuki pulls them closer with fearless certainty, one truth becomes impossible to ignore: some families form themselves long before you realize you are part of one.
