Summary
Fifteen years after they’d lost contact, Sirius found Remus’ number in an old address book.
-
“We were always high back then, weren’t we?” Remus said dreamily. “Probably for the best. Don’t think I’d ever have worked up the courage to kiss you otherwise.”
Absurdly, Sirius felt himself blush.
“Oh yes, my very first kiss,” he said in a saccharine tone, then sat up and gave Remus a teasing kick in the ribs. “Not yours though. You had to go and waste yours on that insufferable boy… What was his name again?”
Remus burst out laughing. “Oi! He was the one who kissed me! I only ever wanted to kiss you, I’ve always wanted to… kiss you,” his voice dropped soft and Sirius caught the flicker of his gaze; down and then up again.

Summary
Hayden gets up to move and pats Shane's shoulder on his way out. “Remember the party we're having at our place on Friday, okay?”
Shane calls out an “okay” just as the front door slams shut behind him.
He sets his bag down in his room before going to grab a can of coke—Hayden buys them and then ends up drinking Shane's stuff anyway—and walks into the room now occupied by a stranger.
“Hey,” he calls out to the half hidden figure inside the closet as he sets down the coke on the new desk next to the door. “I don't know if you like coke but I brought you one. I'm Shane by the way.”
The face that peeks out from behind the closet door makes Shane's eyes widen.
Holy shit.

Summary
Hi Ilya,
My name is Shane! I don’t speak Russian, I hope that’s okay. I’m also 25 years old and I love hockey too! So we have some things in common.
I’ve never written an inmate before. I don’t really know why I’m doing this. I guess I’m lonely. I’m not very good at making friends or dating. I think maybe I can be a bit awkward in person, but I’m good at writing. So I hope that’s okay.
or Shane Hollander finds Ilya Rozanov on WriteAPrisoner.com and sends him an email.

Summary
Shane Hollander agrees to an arranged marriage because refusing could start a war. He expected a transactional relationship, minimal emotional involvement, and maybe some occasional awkward small talk.
Instead he gets a six-foot-three stupidly attractive Russian alpha who is apparently determined to follow Shane around campus like an overprotective guard dog.
meanwhile Ilya Rozanov was fully prepared for a spoiled, haughty omega.
But Shane was earnest, stole his cloths, cried over his gunshot wound, and called him mine in front of his father.
Now Ilya’s a little obsessed.
