Summary
Sid would leave him. Not yet, maybe, but Zhenya had gone into this clear-eyed. He wasn’t twenty years old anymore, buoyant with hope, blinded by his own naivety. For Sid—for any alpha, really—Zhenya was the interlude, not the finale. There would always be another Kathy waiting in the wings.
He wouldn’t try to change Sid’s mind, not this time. But maybe there was still a chance that he could change himself.

Summary
The Boston Bears group chat had sixty-three new messages in the span of three minutes.
His coffee forgotten, Ilya swiped open the chat, scrolling quickly to find the source of the commotion. A link to The Athletic, posted by Jensen, their captain, followed by a string of exclamation points. Ilya tapped it, the headline materializing on his screen like a blow to the chest:
BREAKING: MONTREAL VOYAGEURS’ SECOND DRAFT SHANE HOLLANDER ANNOUNCES RETIREMENT
Ilya's pulse jumped, hard and sudden in his throat. The mug slipped from his hand, not falling but landing too heavily on the counter, coffee slopping over the rim. He set it down properly, his movements mechanical, and forced himself to read the rest of the headline:
20-YEAR-OLD ROOKIE OF THE YEAR STEPPING AWAY TO PURSUE HARVARD BUSINESS DEGREE
Or
Shane Hollander has spent his entire life living and breathing hockey. At twenty, at the height of his career, he makes an unthinkable choice: he walks away to discover who he is beyond the ice.
But some things don’t stay behind.
What happens when the rivalry between him and Rozanov ends, but the pull doesn’t?

Summary
His outstretched glove hangs there, frozen, as the noise of the arena mutates into a ringing buzz. Then he’s moving, pushed away by Marlow, and then Boston’s goalie. There’s a flurry of movement, a trainer with a towel, more blood dripping onto the ice, and he just. Stands there. Staring.
Ilya is helped off the ice. Shane doesn’t even tap his stick.
Remember when Sidney Crosby caught a puck with his jaw? That doesn't happen to Shane. That happens to Ilya.

Summary
“The Rozanov boy hasn’t had his first rut. But when he does, Grigori will pass the title onto him. Based on our intel…his body is preparing for it. It will happen soon enough. Before eighteen, certainly.”
“Then what?” Shane asks, although he already knows the answer.
“Then, you two will be married. And you will procreate. And you won’t disappoint.”
“You say it like it’s so easy.” Reverend Mother crosses her arms, and Yuna is taken back to when she was pregnant. That same judgement is there, but it’s hoisted upon her son, now.
”Lying down and being bred isn’t hard at all.”
[or: plans on plans have been made, all leading up to shane and ilya’s marriage and subsequent mating. shane hates it, and ilya…well, shane doesn’t care for how he feels. he’ll be duke of caladan, regardless.]

Summary
The Swiss National League doesn’t care about the legendary Hollander-Rozanov rivalry. When the MLH can’t negotiate with the Hockey Players’ Union in time to prevent a hockey lockout at the start of the 2015 season, the Zürich Lions jump at the chance to sign both Shane and Ilya to short-term contracts. For four months in Switzerland, they share a team, a line, a house, and a bed.
Then the lockout ends in January, and it’s time to go back. Back to different countries, cities, lives. Beds.
Reentry is harder than expected.
