    Summary

    Ilya has never had a soulmark.

    It’s ok. It’s fine. His mother didn’t want him enough to stay and his father, even when he doesn’t do anything but forget these days, only remembers how much he doesn’t want him while still alive, and so why would he expect the universe to give him any sign that he could be wanted?

    So when…

    Oh lord give him strength, when he finds a large spot right below his left buttcheek that he can SWEAR looks just a shade different from the rest of his skin with very clear outlines for where it starts and ends, his first thought is skin cancer and his second thought in quick succession is denial.

     

    Or how Ilya thinks he has no chance of having shane as a soulmate until he does, and then he convinced himself that that doesn’t mean shane has HIM as a soulmate, (he does), and Shane fixes it.

    Summary

    “So... that was my niece.” 

    “I heard,” Shane nodded, taking a few steps forward until he was right in front of Ilya, connecting their hands, “Are you okay?” 

    “Of course I am,” Ilya squeezed Shane’s hands, “She said she wants to come here. To stay with us. For summer, at least, maybe longer.” 

    Shane’s eyes moved quickly, scanning every inch of Ilya’s face and Ilya could feel it - the gaze and the emotion, carefully examining before asking, “Do you want that?” 

    “I-” Ilya cleared his throat, “It is up to you, Shane. I would love to have her here, to get to know her, but it is up to you. This is our home and it is our life and I-” 

    “I know, Ilya,” Shane’s voice was so soft that Ilya genuinely felt like he could melt in it, “but I’d love to have her here, too, if that’s what you want.” 

    Which is exactly why they’re currently parked in an airport parking lot, a week after that phone call took place, waiting for Katerina, whose plane just landed.

    *

    OR, in which Ilya's niece (Katerina) turns 18, gains access to the trust he created for her, starts to distrust her father, and ends up staying with Ilya and Shane in Canada for the summer.

    Summary

    Shane lingered in the doorway, holding out for the chance that any second now Rosanov would come around the corner and lead Shane back to his bed. That he would help with the feeling of despair and emptiness that had hit Shane the moment Rosanov had taken his hands off Shane and reached for his damn pack of cigarettes.

    Refusing to look at him. Refusing to touch him, the space between their bodies felt like it was ten miles wide even as Shane could feel Rosanov’s cum drying on his skin. Usually, Rosanov would at least clean him up before ending their nights together, but apparently Shane wasn’t even worth that courtesy anymore. There was a sudden feeling of hotness behind his eyes at that thought.

    Summary

    When he was a boy, Ilya used to play with his mother’s Matryoshka doll. He’d unstack the wooden layers. The biggest, then the next, then the next. Always finding something new, until he got to the smallest, most delicate one at the center.

    Ilya has always known Shane isn’t like anyone else. After their summer at the cottage together, Ilya learns that being with Shane is like unstacking nesting dolls. Every layer is a new treasure to discover, and the man at the center has re-shaped his entire world.

    Or, 5 times Shane unmasks around Ilya and the new ways Ilya finds to love him.

    Summary

    His skull struck the ice with a crack that cut straight through the roar of the arena, and the world folded inward around the pain. Fuck.

    When Shane Hollander goes down from a brutal hit mid-game, Ilya Rosanov fights through teammates, opponents, and the chaos on the ice just to reach him. He stays through the ambulance ride, through the hospital lights, through every fragile breath that follows.

    They’ve spent seasons pretending the distance between them didn’t hurt.
    Tonight, that lie may finally buckle.
