    Summary

    Shane snapped.

    Later, people would describe it differently.

    Some called it terrifying.

    Some heroic.

    Some beautiful.

    Shane himself remembered almost nothing except overwhelming, animal panic.

    His gloves hit the ice.

    Then his helmet.

    Then he collided with Volkov hard enough to rip him bodily off Ilya.

    Summary

    It felt like time stopped. Shane watched as the skates flew out from under Marlow, taking Ilya down with him. He saw the dog pile that followed...and the blood...too much blood.

    Shane watched it happen and was unable to prevent it, but Ilya...Ilya never saw it coming or had a chance.

    Summary

    "Hayes!" He calls while he knocks loudly on the door. "Ilya!" he adds, just in case.
    Wyatt opens the door a minute later. Shane can't help but chuckle. He's still wearing a costume, one that Shane doesn't recognize, and his shirt is stained with something that stinks of really strong alcohol. His hair is sticking up in all directions and he's squinting. "Hollander, what the hell."
    "I could ask you the same thing," Shane crosses his arms, taking a look inside Wyatt's hotel room. Ilya doesn't seem to be there, and the anxiety starts reaching his heart, turning its beating erratic. Shane's mostly annoyed, if he's being honest, but there's this feeling twirling in his gut. He doesn't like not knowing where Ilya is. "Where the hell is my husband?"
    Hayes blinks.
    "What?"

    Or, after a bad depressive episode and a terrified confession, Ilya made a promise to his husband. He swore he would never, ever leave him. And he'll be damned if he doesn't keep his promise, even if he has to fight strangers, jump off a moving car and cross the whole Nevada desert. He will get back to Shane, even if it's the last thing he does.

    Summary

    "I would do it again. I would bleed for you a thousand times if it meant I got to keep you safe. I love you that much."

    After a late-season win, everything unravels in the space of a heartbeat, and Shane Hollander learns how much of a person can be held together by two shaking hands and a promise not to let go. What follows is a vigil measured in blood, breath, and the quiet persistence of love.
