    Summary

    NHL golden boy Shane Hollander has spent his entire life being perfect — the ideal captain, the flawless teammate, the face of the franchise. He’s also spent his entire life hiding.

    When a chance encounter in a New York club leads him to Ilya Rozanov, Shane discovers what it means to finally let go. The problem? Ilya isn’t just confident, wealthy, and dangerously attractive. He’s also the heir to the Russian Bratva’s North American empire.

    What starts as one reckless weekend becomes something neither of them expected: real, consuming, and worth protecting at any cost — even when that cost includes bodies, lies, and a secret that could destroy everything Shane has built.

    Twenty-five years, three Stanley Cups, countless threats, and one question: how far will you go for the person who makes you feel like yourself?

    Summary

    Rozanov cocked his head. “You speak Russian? Or just the curse words?”

    “Yes, I speak Russian,” he snapped, defensive and angry. He knew that it had been a mistake to even try to be friendly with Rozanov. “Why? Do I not look Russian to you?” He scoffed.

    “No, not really,” Rozanov said. Some of his teammates laughed, although they mostly looked surprised that Shane was speaking to them at all. Rozanov didn’t laugh, though. “Are you Russian?”

    “Go fuck yourself.”

    +++

    Despite an inauspicious start, when Russia’s Ilya Rozanov learns that Canada’s Shane Hollander is fluent in Russian at their first World Junior Championships tournament, it changes everything and sets them on a different course. Instead of being branded as rivals from the very beginning, Ilya and Shane start off as friends.

    And, after all, a little friendly rivalry never hurt anyone, did it?

    Summary

    Shane wasn’t stupid. He figured this was some kind of fucking cowardly tactic to keep him from being at the Games. Hopefully, that’s all they wanted. If he just played nice, maybe this would all be over soon.

    No one was coming.

    Shane closed his eyes briefly.

    No one, except maybe Rozanov. And he was pretty sure Rozanov would just be pissed off at being stood up.

    Summary

    So… Arahabaki was sentient now. Which was… something.

    Chuuya wasn’t drunk enough for this but the alcohol that was in his system seemed to have mellowed out the gods’ more cannibalistic mutterings. Not by much but enough that Chuuya was able to put that particular catastrophe on the back burner.

    “So, you’ve been asleep for the last…” he tilted his head to the side as he thought, cheeks flushed from the wine, “…eighteen years? Or is it eleven?”

    Our body did not exist until eleven years ago; we existed but this body did not

    … well that answered his questions about whether or not he had been grown in a test tube.

    TLDR: Arahabaki is sentient, Chuuya is having a fucking blast and Dazai is just wondering what happened.
