    Summary

    Anyway, Shane didn't remember exactly what was in the folder ... But he knew they were all good shots of him.

    He hastily clicked open the folder, his eyes barely glancing through the dozen or so shots there, vaguely registering a picture with a sunset background from his condo balcony, something of him laughing, a picture of him working at his laptop with his glasses on...

    The director called him again, and he shook his head, the photos blurring. Whatever. It would have to do.

    He clicked "select all," then the messages icon, then Rozanov's name. Hit send.

    Or: When never-hooked-up Shane and Ilya have to collaborate on a league charity project, Shane accidentally sends Ilya a nude.

    Summary

    “No skating today,” the alpha stated after Ilya’s eye stayed on the rink for a moment too long.

    “Skating?”

    “I know we're hockey players, but we have to beat some stereotypes.”

    Ilya wasn’t really sure what that meant, but he caught one part of it that he did care about, “I play hockey?”

    The man’s brows furrowed again, “Ilya, are you sure you—”

    “I play hockey?” he interrupted, even though he knew it was a bad thing to do. One did not interrupt an alpha and he would pay for it later, but he needed to know.

    “Yes, Ilya—”

    “I am good?”

    “Yes—”

    “The best?”

    Now the man laughed, “fuck off.”

    Or

    Ilya knew that admitting confusion, showing weakness only lead to worse things. The strange alpha he slept next to or the men he played hockey with might be sweet, but they were just as capable of cruelty as anyone else who Ilya had ever met. He knew better than to give any of them an opening. So when Ilya Rozanov woke up in a house with no memory of how he got there, he refused to admit it. Instead, he tried his best to piece his life together without drawing too much attention to himself.

    Shane has a noisy neighbor.
    Correction: Shane has a 6'3" noisy, rude, and annoyingly beautiful neighbor.

    Shane doesn't like noise.

    Summary

    “Should call you the Ottawa Puppies,” says the Toronto centre, Svensson. As an insult it makes no sense, so Ilya ignores it, until he continues, “Hear Hollander keeps you on a short leash.”

    Ilya is the captain, so if anything, he should be holding the leash. In English, you can be singular or plural, but he knows what Svensson is trying to say. He is saying Ilya Rozanov, you are Hollander’s bitch.

    “Only sometimes,” Ilya replies, grinning. He wins the face off.

    OR: Ilya trains himself to be a very, very good guard dog for Shane.

    Summary

    He was walking to his Jeep when the stench of cigarette smoke hit his nose. A few feet away, a tall, broad shouldered figure was standing, back to Shane, watching the sunset. Propped against the wall next to him was the bi-pride flag emblazoned sled.

    “That was a great game.” Shane said, taking a couple steps in the direction of the sledge hockey center. “You’re an amazing player to watch, but you’re really not supposed to smoke here.” The man stiffened and then pivoted slowly towards Shane. Backlit by the setting sun, his facial expression was indiscernible.

    “Oh my God Hollander, you are so boring.”

    Ilya was dead.

    Or at least, Alexei Rozanov said he was. Even after two years, Shane still hoped to see him again. He never imagined reuniting in the parking lot of a community center in suburban Ottawa.
    *
    A family emergency means Ilya and Shane never meet in Las Vegas. In Russia, Alexei uncovers Ilya's sexuality and attacks him, inflicting grievous injuries. Ilya escapes with his life, but is forced into hiding, seeking refugee status in Canada where he builds a quiet, but meaningful, existence.

    The only problem: even two years later, he misses Shane Hollander.
