    Summary

    Oh. Ilya is kissing him.

    Shane drops the tongs he’d been holding. He doesn’t move for a full second while his brain tries to come back online. And then he has both hands in Ilya’s hair and Shane is kissing him back. His mouth opens, and Ilya tastes perfect. Feels perfect. Shane makes an embarrassing sound when Ilya’s tongue brushes his.

    Harris says, “Shane, your buns are burning,” at the same time Troy lets out a whoop in the background. Someone else shouts, “Atta boy, Rozy! Who’s up next?” It drops a lead weight in Shane’s stomach, and Shane is an idiot.

    The kiss was a dare. And Shane is the idiot who just kissed him back.

    Summary

    Rozanov cocked his head. “You speak Russian? Or just the curse words?”

    “Yes, I speak Russian,” he snapped, defensive and angry. He knew that it had been a mistake to even try to be friendly with Rozanov. “Why? Do I not look Russian to you?” He scoffed.

    “No, not really,” Rozanov said. Some of his teammates laughed, although they mostly looked surprised that Shane was speaking to them at all. Rozanov didn’t laugh, though. “Are you Russian?”

    “Go fuck yourself.”

    +++

    Despite an inauspicious start, when Russia’s Ilya Rozanov learns that Canada’s Shane Hollander is fluent in Russian at their first World Junior Championships tournament, it changes everything and sets them on a different course. Instead of being branded as rivals from the very beginning, Ilya and Shane start off as friends.

    And, after all, a little friendly rivalry never hurt anyone, did it?

    Summary

    “Fuck.” Shane melted into the strong hand at his neck, the pressure over his throat and the heat of the Alpha’s palm. “Fuck, that’s–” his eyes started to flutter closed, his knees going weak, but he heard the Alpha huff a laugh and immediately stiffened again. 

    “Don’t do that.” he warned. “Don’t laugh like me letting you put your hand on my throat is predictable submissive Omega behavior and you're making fun of me."

    “That is not why i was laughing.” Ilya squeezed Shane’s throat lightly, his thumb pressing over the suppressant patch covering the Omega's bonding spot and blocking his sweet scent. “I thought you would fight it, fight submitting. But you didn’t.”

    “No I–” Shane swallowed hard. “I like it.” 

    “Good.” Ilya smiled slow and a little dangerous, running his tongue over his bottom lip and then over the sharp ends of his fangs before he leaned in and growled into the Omega’s ear. “Now get on your knees.”

    Summary

    “You’re starting to sound like him,” said Hunter.

    Shane thought… if Hunter knew… he had had years to out them. He had been in the room next to Ilya’s. But he had never said anything. Feeling numb, terrified, Shane said, “I’m sorry, what?”

    “You fucking heard me, Hollander.” Hunter’s face was so angry. Shane saw the truth, the threat, in the man’s face.

    He was on a mic. He was mic’d. This would ruin Shane and Rozanov. He dropped his gloves without really thinking about it. He never dropped his gloves. Hunter couldn’t run his mouth without teeth. His teammates caught him and held him back. He chirped a lot, calling Hunter old and past it, hoping to distract him, get him to not say the worst thing he could possibly say. All Shane could hope for was a distraction.

    When Hunter chirps at Shane while mic’d up for behind-the-scenes content, Shane feels sick. He knows his parents, Ilya and the world hear it, and he worries about the consequences.

    Summary

    Getting snowed into a city they weren’t supposed to be staying in is not ideal. Even more not ideal is every hotel in the area being booked. And Ilya can’t get Shane on the phone to let him know.

    “Hey! Listen up! Before we go inside you all listen closely! This is my home, there are ground rules. First of all, I am bisexual. There have been rumors but they are true. My boyfriend is gay and a hockey player. He has recently told his team and they are assholes. If I hear anything about him I will kick your ass and leave you to rot out in the snow.”

    “Is that Shane Hollander?”
    —-
    Or, Ilya’s game is canceled and they have nowhere to stay. But they are in Ottawa, where his team knows he lives. So he’s roped into spending the snow break with his team that he’s not out to, in his home he shares with his boyfriend, a boyfriend that they don’t know about.
