    Summary

    "So this is your plan?" Ilya looked up, his voice dripping with contempt. "You want to buy me a dog so I stop biting?"

    Or: Shane expects to be a punching bag for a cruel alpha. Poor omega has no idea that he's actually about to be loved.

    Summary

    But Ilya’s case worker had assured Shane on that first phone call that Ilya had been looked over by a doctor and given a clean bill of health. All Shane would have to do to ensure Ilya stayed that way was to take him down into subspace.

    So he had told himself to suck it up and had broached the subject with Ilya when they both sat down to lunch.

    It had, quite frankly, been a fucking disaster.
    --
    After enduring years of abuse at the hands of his doms, Ilya has no reason to trust that Shane Hollander will be any different. If it was up to him, he would never have to submit to another dom ever again, would never again have to endure the pain and humiliation of a scene. But it's not up to him, so he will grit his teeth and endure Hollanders attentions anyway.

    Shane is simply trying his best.

    Summary

    The fire went out a long time ago. All that remains is ash.

    After years of trafficking, Ilya Rozanov has been conditioned to expect pain from every outstretched hand. So when he's placed with Shane Hollander, a seemingly gentle man in a quiet cottage, he knows better than to believe that it's rescue. It is a new chance to be good enough, if he can just figure out what this one wants from him.

    Summary

    Sometimes, Shane didn’t like to be touched. 

    It wasn’t the biggest thing in the world, and it was a quirk that was generally unproblematic enough for it to be conflated into anything bigger than just a personality trait. In fact, it made sense for Shane, given his slightly aloof and shy nature. He wasn’t the best at communication, so it wasn’t the craziest thing in the world that he was like this. He knew his team noticed and he knew his friends noticed, but it didn’t really mean anything. Shane just didn’t like to be touched and he didn’t like it when people came near him. It was as simple as that. 

    ***

    Alternatively, someone from Shane's early training days comes back to haunt him.

    Summary

    When Ilya is rushed into hospital following complications from an infection, Troy is left holding the bag. Literally. All he has is a locked phone, a jacket and the knowledge that Shane Hollander is on a plane to Las Vegas right now.

    [This is set during The Long Game, with a few tweaks. Obviously in this, Troy is 100% sure that Shane is Ilya's secret guy, but they have not discussed it. Set after the All Stars Game.]
