    Summary

    Rozanov cocked his head. “You speak Russian? Or just the curse words?”

    “Yes, I speak Russian,” he snapped, defensive and angry. He knew that it had been a mistake to even try to be friendly with Rozanov. “Why? Do I not look Russian to you?” He scoffed.

    “No, not really,” Rozanov said. Some of his teammates laughed, although they mostly looked surprised that Shane was speaking to them at all. Rozanov didn’t laugh, though. “Are you Russian?”

    “Go fuck yourself.”

    +++

    Despite an inauspicious start, when Russia’s Ilya Rozanov learns that Canada’s Shane Hollander is fluent in Russian at their first World Junior Championships tournament, it changes everything and sets them on a different course. Instead of being branded as rivals from the very beginning, Ilya and Shane start off as friends.

    And, after all, a little friendly rivalry never hurt anyone, did it?

    Summary

    When his phone rings, Shane assumes it’s spam.

    Instead, it’s the voice of a Russian stranger asking what he’s wearing.

    Somewhere between that and hanging up, the call turns to phone sex.

    Summary

    Cliff Marleau finds out his best friend has been secretly dating Shane Hollander the same way everyone else does—via a video that's already gone viral—and spends the next three hours trapped in a car with two of Shane's teammates, one of whom is convinced Ilya is the worst person alive.

    Summary

    After the longest season of his career, Ilya retreats to the cottage with Shane, expecting rest, recovery, and a month of stolen peace. Instead, exhaustion lingers. Small things feel wrong. And the body that has always carried him through pain begins to falter in ways he can’t explain.

    As concern grows and outside eyes begin to notice, the life Ilya and Shane have carefully built—careers, borders, futures—starts to feel fragile. When a medical crisis shatters their summer before answers arrive, love is no longer something they protect quietly. It becomes something they fight with.

    A story about what happens when the body speaks before you’re ready to listen, and the people who refuse to let you face it alone.

    Summary

    After their engagement, Ilya and Shane return to Russia under the cover of the Irina Foundation, knowing it may be the last time Ilya ever sets foot there. What waits for him is not closure, but grief, memory, and a past he learned to survive by becoming quiet and hard.

    It isn’t about going back to the life he escaped.
    It’s about one final goodbye—to the place that shaped him, and to the mother he never stopped missing.

    With Shane beside him—steady, patient, and fiercely careful—Ilya faces grief he’s spent years surviving, old fear that still lives in his bones, and the quiet truth he’s been avoiding:
    some doors don’t close cleanly… but you can still choose how to leave them.

    This is a story about grief, survival, and choosing a future where home is no longer a place, but a person.

    Summary

    Six months ago, Shane’s intimate conversation and break-up with Rose Landry was recorded and leaked. In those six months, his life had completely upended and everything had changed, for better or for worse. Except for Ilya. He still has Ilya, and he’s beginning to understand that he always will.

    It’s 2018. Shane Hollander has to figure out his new life, in a new city, on a new team, while being out to the world but not by his own choice. Ilya, along for the ride, also has to learn what it means to be connected to a place, to a person, and to his own inner truth.

    (Sequel to “something you can fix,” set post-Heated Rivalry, pre-The Long Game)

    Summary

    Maybe if the video ended there, Shane thought, it would be okay. Okayish. Still incriminating. Still a fucking disaster. Still embarrassing, to have his breakup with this beautiful actress filmed and disseminated on Reddit of all fucking places, but not a nail in his coffin, burying him alive. But the video didn’t end there.

    “Can I ask if you’ve ever been with another guy?” she had to ask.

    And he, tears visible in his eyes, had to nod.

    Just once. Just a single nod.

    Why did he have to nod?

    “Have you ever told anyone that before?” He shook his head. “Was it different? With a guy?”

    “Of course.”

    Of course.

    “Was it better?”

    “Yes.”

    +++

    Shane’s conversation with Rose is secretly recorded. Months later, after the All-Star game and Ilya’s confession in Russian, the video gets leaked online. Shane is outed to the world while Ilya is in Russia, and must now finish the 2016-2017 season with the entire world in on his secret.

    Summary

    “Lily,” Hayden says automatically. “You know about Lily?”

    Something flickers across Rozanov’s face. His jaw twitches. “Yes, I know about Lily.” He raises his eyebrows.

    Hayden feels like a complete asshole, all of a sudden. There’s just been too much going on to even think about Shane’s mystery girlfriend. “Shit, I should probably, like, call her, or something? I don’t know this girl at all, but Shane’s been obsessed with her for years. If she was watching the game, she would have seen him get hurt.”

    “You don’t need to call her,” Rozanov says, and when Hayden glances at him, he still looks fucking miserable but now he’s rolling his eyes, a much more familiar expression of disdain on his face. “She’s sitting right here.”

    Hayden Pike and Ilya Rozanov are waiting for Shane to wake up after he took a bad hit on the ice. They get to talking.

    Chapter 2: Ilya and Shane talk about what it means, now that someone knows their secret.

    Summary

    This is the continuation of Alex and Henry's journey to becoming parents to the first twins born to the Royal family in over six centuries. But it wouldn't be Henry and Alex without a sprinkle of drama here and there- so there was plenty of that at the start.

    Summary

    It starts, like so many things in Alex’s life, with a list.

    A list, a prince, an NDA, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and a night better than any of the fantasies that preceded it. No consequences. That was the whole point.

    Except, like so many things in Alex’s life, it isn’t that simple.

    Illicit rendezvous, heartfelt phone calls, transatlantic flights, nights that change them… and a morning that changes everything.

    And that’s just how it starts.

    Summary

    Mini scenes of Henry (and Alex) learning to navigate pda . This is inspired by the rules as I understand it from the media that the royals are not supposed to show pda so like holding hands is frowned upon in public. But also navigating this as two men in a world that’s something less than kind.

    Summary

    Alex freezes, his breath catching in his throat as their eyes lock. Seconds pass. Alex doesn’t know if he’s supposed to smile or avert his gaze. Eight years stretch between them like an uncharted sea, and this version of Henry—this older, polished, unreadable Henry—is a stranger.

    Then Henry smiles. The corners of his mouth tug upward, a little too tight, a little too forced, but it’s a smile nonetheless. “Alex?” He wonders.

    And Alex unravels.


    Alex and Henry meet after eight years. They are still in love with each other.
