    Summary

    Ilya has been in the psychiatric hospital for six months. He’s learned the routines, memorised the staff, made a friend, and accepted that every day is going to be more or less the same.

    Then Shane arrives.

    Ilya knows better than to get involved with new patients.

    Unfortunately, he also knows better than to stare at a stranger’s freckles for as long as he does.

    Or: Ilya meets Shane, Shane doesn’t want to be perceived, and neither of them is particularly prepared for what happens next.

    Summary

    Shane built his life on control—on routines so strict they left no room for anything real. What started as harmless discipline turned into something sharper, quieter, until even he couldn’t tell where the control ended and the damage began. By the time anyone noticed, Shane had already given up on himself.

    Ilya never believed in control to begin with. His world unraveled slower, heavier—until one night, he stopped trying to hold it together at all. When he wakes up in a hospital bed, broken but alive, the only thing he feels is anger that it didn’t work. Ilya has given up on life entirely.

    Against both their wishes, they’re sent to a remote rehab center and forced into the same room—two strangers with nothing in common but the ways they’re falling apart.

    As the walls between them slowly crack, anger turns into understanding, and silence into something softer. Because maybe, just maybe… you don’t have to want to be saved to start finding a reason to stay.

    Summary

    “You need your papa. Is no use pretending you don’t when we both know it. It has been weeks.”

    Shane doesn’t unhelpfully point out that they’ve gone a lot longer than weeks before. It’s different now, since Ilya took all the reins. They’ve both gotten used to doing it more often.

    “Not right now. Not—“ Shane’s voice breaks off, “You’re hurt.”

    He isn’t really, at least not as bad as he could be. He’ll have some nasty bruises for a while, but that’s par for the course with their jobs. Shane knows this, logically, but it’s like his brain can’t get the message to the rest of his body, still tight with tension. Stuck in the same place he’d been when he’d seen Ilya unmoving out on the ice.

    (or: ilya knows best, shane just needs a reminder of that sometimes.)

    Summary

    A nineteen-year-old Shane Hollander is a completely normal college student-- well, almost. In between studying and lectures, he kills vampires.

    In a world where vampires crawl the earth, feeding on the innocent, there has to be someone to stop them. Or multiple someones. Shane is one of them, more out of tradition than anything else. He doesn't take pleasure in killing vampires like other hunters do. Despite this, he continues to hunt, to protect the earth from these dangerous, unpredictable, bloodthirsty monsters.

    Ilya Rozanov is also a completely normal nineteen-year-old college student. Other than the tiny little hiccup that he's one of the bloodthirsty monsters Shane's grown-up hunting.

    Despite their differences, this unlikely duo teams up in an attempt to find what vampire has been going around killing hunters.
