  Summary

  Svetlana knows about Jane. It's frankly insulting for Ilyusha to think otherwise.

  She just never expected to have to call him for help. During the Olympics. In Russia. In the dead of night.

  -
  Or, it's Sochi 2014 and Russia has lost to Latvia. Grigori Rozanov, not yet compromised by illness, punishes his son for shaming the family. When Svetlana finds an injured and emotionally fragile Ilya, she knows she needs somewhere safe for him to recover. And there's only one person in Russia who Sveta trusts with her Ilyusha: Canada's Golden Boy, Shane Hollander.
