Summary
Ilya Rozanov, a professional dom, lives in the space between. Between shifts, between countries, between versions of himself. Control is what keeps things from falling apart. Control, and distance.
Shane Hollander lives the life that might have been his. He spends his NLH career closing distance, closing gaps, moving toward things instead of away from them.
When a chance meeting at the animal shelter crosses their paths, something unexpected carries between them, like a call, waiting to be answered.
*This work is a remix/ heavily inspired by Wolfbird (OpalApparition), including people and locations. In my mind, a “what could have happened if they met in a different way and made different choices.” It’s sweet, has (mostly/eventual) soft landings, and features many puppies who absolutely did not ask to be a part of this, and one very dramatic chiweenie who did.
Thank you to OpalApparition for the encouragement to write what I love.

Summary
Sequel to Between the Calls. Please start there.
The answer, it turns out, is only the beginning. Some answers arrive all at once. Others take shape slowly.
Another hockey season. New routines. Old familiar fears. A stubborn chiweenie. The ordinary, complicated business of building a life with someone.
This series is a remix of Wolfbird by OpalApparition. Endless thanks to Opal for encouraging people to write/create/share, and for letting me chase bunnies, wander off the path, and build a few forts of my own in the beautiful world they created.
