    Summary

    Shane’s never kissed a man before tonight. He’s never done any of this. Taken a stranger home from a club. Engaged in the meaningless sex that most of the single players seem to traffic regularly in. The talking point the press uses is that he’s dedicated to the sport. His teammates joke that he thinks about hockey more than women. He’s been able to get away with it for so long because he’s good on the ice, and people will overlook eccentricities in the face of excellence.

    The truth is, Shane doesn’t think about women at all.

    The only time sex has ever felt worthwhile and it’s with an escort. The only time he’s found himself wanting and it’s with a man.

    Summary

    Shane Hollander is inexperienced when it comes to dating men. He's been out for a while and wants to build his confidence, so he meets up with Ilya, an escort, per a friend's recommendation. Ilya is an excellent teacher and all the things Shane could want in a man, but this is Ilya's job. Shane needs to decide what to do about the feelings he has for Ilya; stick things out and ultimately get his heart broken or break it off now before he gets in too deep.

    Summary

    Ilya Rosanov thought he understood depression, and how to handle it. He was supposed to be happy, living his life with Shane peacefully, exactly where he always wanted to be.

    But he’s haunted by his family curse, ruining everything he touches.

    And somehow, ending up like his mama doesn’t seem so scary anymore.

    It might be his only way out.

    TLDR: Ilyas mental health spirals fast, but he doesn’t dare let anyone know.

    Summary

    “Shane, we should talk. Outside."

    Shane’s stomach dropped, anxiety filling back in him as he shook his head. “What is it Hayden?” He asked, his eyes narrowing and dropping to JJ’s phone, the glint of a news site cast across it upside down from where he stood. He moved quickly, a hand reaching up to grab JJ’s phone as he took in the headline.

    Ottawa Centaur’s plane crash in Tampa: More to follow soon.

    His heart dropped into his stomach as he reread the words over and over, wishing for them to change. He hoped that maybe, maybe, if he reread the words enough, some great power in the universe would will them to change. He wasn’t a religious man, but God, would he pray for this. His hand, which still held the phone in a white-knuckle grip, was now slightly trembling, a visible testament to the pent up agonizing worry ruminating within him.

    or: What if Shane didn't immediately know if Ilya was okay? What if the plane really did crash?

    Summary

    Years after Ilya left the league prematurely, Shane and Ilya are both passengers on a four-month, around-the-world cruise.

    Shane is out for the season due to an MCL tear, and Yuna got him a deal with the cruise ship: their finest suite in exchange for a few social media posts. But for Ilya, the reason for the vacation is much darker. This cruise is his way to blow his meager inheritance, and, if he’s being honest with himself, it’s to find some kind of proof that life is worth sticking around for.
