    Summary

    When Chu Wanning was Chu-fei, Taxian-jun forced him into a mating bite that shared emotions across the bond. It was an act of cruelty and humiliation, intending to take Chu Wanning’s last private respite—the sanctity of his own feelings—away from him.

    In this life, Mo Ran was no longer Taxian-jun, and Chu Wanning was no longer Chu-fei. But Mo Ran could still feel his emotions.

    Summary

    Years ago, Kaveh tore their joint research paper conclusion page in half, walked out of the office, and told Alhaitham to live his life his way.

    Alhaitham listened—on the surface.

    Underneath, he kept the torn pages in a drawer and spent the next few years watching from the margins: sitting in the back row of Kaveh’s lectures, nudging audits in the Bazaar, turning monsters away from a desert camp, rearranging variables so the world would hurt him a little less.

    When rain and debt and bad timing finally push them back under the same roof, Kaveh discovers what’s been living between the lines of Alhaitham’s life this whole time: a vow he never said out loud, and doesn’t quite know how to return.

    Or, Alhaitham spends years yearning for and protecting Kaveh in ways Kaveh was never meant to notice.

    Summary

    “You are sick,” Ilya said slowly, enunciating every word. He sprayed another stream of water into his mouth, and Shane couldn’t help but stare at the way his throat moved. He felt hypnotized, trapped in Ilya’s stare, and the other man put the bottle down. “Have you scene before, Shane Hollander?”

    Shane’s expression crumpled before he could wrestle it back under control. He cleared his throat, his stomach cramping uncomfortably. “Have I what? Have--scened with someone? What do you mean?”

    “You are sub,” Ilya spoke with the water bottle waving, his voice casual. He ignored Shane’s defensive posture, gesturing to the trash can. “Sub get sick when not scene. When no Dom to scene with,” Ilya trailed off, looking Shane up and down, lingering on his collarless throat before continuing. “Is…unhealthy.”

    In a world where subs, Doms, and Switches are biologically determined, subs are not accepted within a Dom-oriented sport like hockey.

    Sub Shane Hollander keeps his designation hidden, but when confronted with Dom Ilya Rozanov, he can't fight his designation for long.

    Summary

    Shane rests his head against the window. Breathes in, out. Clenches his hands into fists on his lap, then slowly uncurls them.

    Nothing between his fingers now. No bedsheets, no shirt, no Ilya. No proper goodbye.

    No kiss.

    "Fuck," he breathes out. Fuck.

    This isn't the same as all those years ago. It isn't, and he knows it. But there's a strange, hollow feeling that's starting to expand in his chest. Making his ribs feel brittle, his lungs made paper-thin.

    Shane drops. It's unfortunate timing.
