    Summary

    Finding your soulmate is supposed to be beautiful. You stand in front of someone and you say their full name; they say yours. Your soulmarks appear somewhere on your bodies, and it's supposed to be beautiful. Life-changing.

    It's not supposed to happen a week before the World Juniors tournament in a dirty Saskatchewan parking lot. It's not supposed to be Canada's newest darling hockey player and your future rival who whispers your name. It's not supposed to be a boy that your skin blooms for.

    And if that does happen, despite the fact that it shouldn't, you're definitely not supposed to lie to your soulmate's face, refuse to say his name in return, and pretend that you never felt your soulmark appear at all. And if that happens, somehow, you're definitely not supposed to kiss him less than a year later. And then later. And then later. And then later, until you realize you never want to leave his bed despite the fact that you've never told him the truth about the bear tattoo on your chest.

    or, finding out that his soulmate is Shane Hollander isn't beautiful. Ilya can't pretend that it's not life-changing though.

    Summary

    Lachlan Pucey joins the Montreal Metros as a rookie with all eyes on him. After a year spent in the AHL, developing and preparing for his NHL debut, he's not going to let anything distract him from playing the best hockey he can and proving to everyone watching that he's just as good of a player as his old man was and his big brother is.

    Hank Crawford is a second round draft pick that comes into the league after two years playing the college circuit. He's got no one's expectations to live up to save for his own, but there's a lot riding on him making a name for himself in Montreal. It's the best day of his life when Shane Hollander calls to invite him to training camp in September, bar none.

    Lachlan and Crawford are fast friends. Hard not to be when they have so much in common, when it's so easy to kill an afternoon hanging out and playing video games beside each other on the couch. When it starts to feel like the only deep breaths they're able to take are the ones they take when they're side by side, on the ice or at home or out in the city.

    They're fast friends. Good friends. Best friends. That's all they can be; hockey is everything else.

    Summary

    Shane Hollander arrived on a Pacific island with a laminated cheat sheet in his sock, a boyfriend on the other tribe, and absolutely no intention of letting either of those things become anyone else's business.

    It's day one and it's already going badly.

    AKA When the newest season of Survivor features only NHL players, everything and anything can go wrong.

    Summary

    “Hello?” comes the smallest voice Ilya’s ever heard.
    “Alina?”
    “Uncle Ilya.” She sniffles over the line.
    “Alya, what’s going on?” He is trying desperately to keep his tone steady.
    “Dad, he um…he found out.” Fuck.
    “Found what out?” He asks, even though he already knows the answer.

    Summary

    Shane and Ilya just want to tell the world about their relationship, on their own terms. If only anyone would actually believe them.

    Or: the closet is reinforced steel, apparently.

    "I think we tried too hard," Ilya says from the opposite end of the couch, probably scrolling through the same articles as Shane. "Was easier to keep secret than we thought. I could have kissed you on center ice, and everyone would say aww, I love their…what is word again?"

    "Bromance?"

    "Yes. That."
