Summary
Ilya’s heart is breaking. He doesn’t want the first thing he does, the very first thing, after Shane’s choices have been so brutally ripped away from him, to be something Shane is begging him not to do. But Shane is seriously injured, much beyond what they can handle with first aid at home or even if they found a discreet doctor to make a house call. He will need an MRI, a broken bone set, probably surgery. And evidence should be collected too, for the police. That part Ilya will not push him on. But he cannot let Shane risk his life for his pride and the fear of shame that has controlled him for so long. “I am sorry, moy lyubimyy,” Ilya says, “So sorry. But Marleau is calling ambulance, and you are going to the hospital.”
***
Shane and Ilya are spending Christmas together in Boston during Ilya's last season playing for the Bears. They're finally out, and they're in love, and soon they'll only live two hours apart.
When Shane is assaulted, the plans they had built for their future collapse. Now the road ahead is a long, grueling process of physical and psychological recovery. What they had before-the sex, the playful power exchange, the easy trust-is gone, and they have to build something new, together.

Supportive Montreal Metros by Zaz14
Fandom Game Changers Series - Rachel Reid, Heated Rivalry (TV)
26 Jul 2026
Summary
All my fics with supportive Montreal Metros/Voyageurs
They will be awkward and confused bros trying to be nice because they actually like their Captain. They will also be so confused about how to be allies, but they are trying their best.
They are all different stories and timelines.
I can't spell Voyageurs consistently in my fics, so it will always be Metros.
WAGs unite against homophobia - will EVENTUALLY have supportive Metros, but it's nowhere near that yet, so I'm not tagging it and it's not in this series yet.

Summary
“Thanks for all your help,” Shane says.
“Yes,” Ilya says, releasing Marleau so he can sock him in the arm, eyes narrowed, “Whatever you did, even if it was sneaky behind my back—”
“Hey, you might’ve been being stupid about having no distractions,” Marleau says, making air quotes, “but I’ve always liked Jane for you. If you were gonna get another chance…” He shrugs broadly. “I barely even did anything.”
“Mm, did so little you did not even tell me he was coming,” Ilya grouches. He turns to Shane and asks, only slightly less petulant, “Why didn’t you tell me you were coming?”
Shane’s face scrunches. “Because you’ve been so good at answering my texts recently?”
“I… I’m sorry,” Ilya says feebly.
Shane shakes his head, wishing he could reach out and comfort Ilya with touch, the only way he really knows how. “You chased me once,” he says, “I figured I could try it.”When Rozanov’s playing for the Cup in 2014, Shane decides that everyone, even if they’re kind of an asshole, deserves to have someone there to meet them on the ice after they win—if not a loved one, then at least someone who loves them. Shane figures that what he feels for Rozanov is close enough.

Ilya died, yes, but then the doctors saved him. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation in the ambulance, three electric shocks, two emergency surgeries, twenty-six units of blood. Ilya died, but then he came back.
If only Shane could get his subconscious to understand that.

Summary
"Did I pass the test?" Ilya said, trying to hide the flair of annoyance that sparked deep within his chest. He couldn’t help it. She was making him feel like he was on trial. "I am trying not to take offense to this, but when have I ever been at risk for leaking confidential details? Contract or not." Svetlana just hmmm’d to herself.
"The client insisted on the contract, my hands were tied. In order to read the brief, you had to sign. I'm sorry. You have my implicit trust, Ilyusha. I hope you know."
"The client insisted? Please, put me out of my misery. Who is this client?"

Shane gets viciously outed, and seeks confidential, professional Dominant services to cope with the fallout.

Summary
“You…wanted to see me?” He asks, barely resisting a wince at how awkwardly it comes out. “After yesterday-” He stops, swallows.
Hollander makes a face–one of Ilya’s favorite faces, in fact–that says he’s a little embarrassed about what he’s about to say. Ilya feels his chest go a little tighter, wondering if Hollander has had time to reconsider, if he’d even planned to reach out after the game, apologize for spooking and running, ask to come ba-
“Did something…happen yesterday?” Hollander asks.
Ilya stares at him.

Summary
Ilya doesn’t even realize when Arthur slips from his thoughts. There’s no sharp turn, no clear moment where the article stops being about a little boy who loves reptiles and starts being about the man lying beside him in bed. It just… happens. The way his mind always seems to find Shane eventually, like water finding its lowest point.

Summary
It was a Friday when the video dropped.
“What is happening?” He asked St Simon, who was holding his phone tight to his chest, his expression odd. “Someone has died?”
Across the room he could see Marlow moving slowly upright from where he had been doing floor stretches, his phone in his hand as well, his face pinched.
“It’s Hollander,” St Simon said.
The bottom of Ilya’s stomach fell out, closely followed by the rest of Ilya’s organs. His chest hurt so acutely that he thought he must be having a heart attack.
“Not dead,” St Simon added quickly, reaching out to grab Ilya’s shoulder when Ilya’s knees actually buckled. “Jesus, sorry. I should have - no it’s just -”
“Someone tell me what the fuck is going on,” Ilya snapped, “and everyone else shut up.”
Marlow reached him now, held his phone out to Ilya, open already to an article with a headline huge enough Ilya could easily make out the HOLLANDER blaring out of it even before his eyes focused and he took the phone from Marlow.
A video is posted online, for Shane it feels like a death sentence. For some parts of him, it is.

Ilya blinks and turns to him. “I am fine. Totally fine. Better than fine, even, before today.”
“It’s just—Shane’s acting like you’re dying, Ilya.”
“Not as far as I’m aware,” says Ilya. “And I do not think he would learn this before me.”
