Summary
When you meet your soulmate, everything else is supposed to pale in comparison, subtle enough that you’ll think to yourself maybe, just maybe, something is going on. A buzz, they say, will spread under your skin, only to be soothed by the next time you touch your soulmate. It’s a little bit of an odd system, but it works; people usually reconnect with their soulmate within a few weeks of meeting them for the first time. Who wouldn’t want to be with someone that completes the other half of their soul? Who would deny themselves a kiss that feels better than anyone else’s?
There were legends, of course, tall tales of denying a bond for so long that it became intense, two lovers denying themselves the confirmation of being soulmates that the bond had crackled and fizzed, forcing them into states of fervor and need so deep it boiled down to love in its deepest, most obsessive, possessive form. It created many movies and stories, theories on what could happen, but no one would ever be so stubborn and idiotic as to deny themselves to test it.

Summary
‘You could come out,’ Shane said eagerly.
‘What?’
‘Come out, you know, tell everyone that you’re in a relationship with a man. Then you wouldn’t be able to go back to Russia, and your family would leave you alone.’ It was perfect.
But Rozanov was shaking his head. ‘Risk is too big,’ he said. ‘Without Raiders contract, my visa will change, maybe I do not even get to stay in America. If I burn bridges with Russia, could be very bad.’
‘Oh.’ Shane thought for a minute. ‘What about Canadian residency? Then you’d get healthcare and be able to play for any of the leagues, or do something else entirely if you need to.’
Rozanov looked confused. ‘I would have to play for Canadian team, maybe, to get Canadian citizenship, live in Canada, I don’t know how many years would take. Would be dream only.’
Shane was terrified and excited at the same time as the rest of the idea fell into place in his mind. ‘What if we got married?’ he asked, stomach fluttering. ‘You’d get a Canadian passport, you’d be safe, no matter what happens.’

Summary
Ilya Rozanov has been drafted by Boston, the number one pick overall, but his father doesn't want him moving to America and so takes steps to block his visa. He's going to have to go back to Russia and stay there forever and that, thinks Shane Hollander, is wrong.
It's so wrong that Shane can't stop himself from doing something about it. Even though that something is the most reckless, the only reckless thing he's ever done in his life. He marries Rozanov in secret, to keep him out of Russia and put him on a path to Canadian citizenship.
Shane's got a five-year plan to get him there and when you have a plan nothing can go wrong. Right? Right. When you have a solid plan and a marriage that's on paper only there's no risk of feelings getting involved. Not on Rozanov's part and certainly not on Shane's.
Right???

Summary
And then his prayer from before the kiss was answered in the form of a soft knock.
Shane had barely made it up five steps. He paused for a second, wondering if he had hit the metal railing somehow, leaving behind a knock-like reverberation echoing in the stairwell. He shook his head slightly, as if shaking out the thought that it could be anything else. He continued up the steps more slowly.
Then there was a second knock, and a buzz in his sweatshirt pocket.
There was no mistaking either of those sounds. He practically snapped his wrist yanking his phone out of his pocket.
LILY: the car is not here, and is cold. can i keep waiting inside?
OR: What if Ilya's cab in ep2 is late?
