Summary
Rozanov opened his mouth again. And just liked that, all of Shane’s fears – everything he’d worked so hard to hide, everything he’d given his body, heart, and soul for over the last ten years – came crumbling down around him. With one word, Rozanov ended Shane’s entire world with not a bang, but one, single whisper.
“Omega.”
He wasn’t proud of it. But despite his exhaustion, despite the way his lungs felt as though they may collapse against the very ribs holding them up, Shane did the only thing he could think to do.
He turned, and he ran.
—
Shane Hollander is one of the best players in the NHL. He has everything: money, fame, family, success. But there’s one thing no one - and he means no one - can know:
Shane Hollander is an omega.
And Ilya Rosanov is the only person who knows.

Summary
It’s a bitterly cold night in 2017 when Roy Kent meets Jamie Tartt at the Etihad Stadium, and as much as he tries to deny it, there’s something…special, about the little prick. Something that makes him want to throw his own rules out the window and maybe, for once in his life, be brave.
What he doesn’t know - what he couldn’t have known - is that this one meeting is about to fuck up his entire life.
(Or, lovers to enemies, enemies to lovers, and everything before and in between)
Pre-Canon through season one.

Summary
“There’s a lot coming up,” Roy says, instead of all that. “With the manager position, and shit. I need some time to think about,” he gestures vaguely between them, “this.”
Jamie nods, slowly, lips pursed together. “Alright,” he says again.
Roy really hates that fucking word.
“You ought to take a trip or something, Coach,” Jamie says, flopping back down onto the pillows, making no move to leave Roy’s bed despite the whole needing space thing. “Take a holiday before the season starts. Get your head on straight.”
That - isn’t the worst idea Jamie’s ever had, really.
---
Or, the seven days in which Roy loses his fucking mind, thanks to Jamie. -

Summary
“What the fuck are you doing here?”
From where he’s perched on Roy’s chair, one leg pulled up to his chest to rest his chin on his knee, Jamie scoffs. His hair - left a touch longer since the last time Roy saw him - looks wet, like he’s only recently showered, and Roy feels the familiar twitch of irritation in his throat at Jamie’s flippant use of the Richmond facilities, despite not having played for them for the better part of seven years.
“Hello to you too, Coach,” Jamie grins, wide and toothy, his sharp teeth glinting in the harsh fluorescent light. “Did you miss me?”
--
Ten years after Ted leaves - and seven since leaving Richmond - Jamie comes home to Roy.

Summary
It’s important for Roy to make it clear: he’s not afraid of a fucking journal.
Just for some reason, he can't seem to stop writing about Jamie fucking Tartt.
(or, Dr. Sharon assigns Roy therapy homework, and it leads to some realizations along the way)

Summary
“Lou,” he said quietly. “My hand.”
Anne leaned in before Louis could answer, smoothing a thumb over Harry’s shoulder. “It’ll be alright, love.”
Harry frowned at her, impatient even half-conscious. “That’s my dominant one.”
Then he turned his head back toward Louis, green eyes clearer now, searching his face for the truth.
“Lou.”
Louis felt his own chest tighten. Of course this would be the thing. The bakery. The dough, the piping bags, the muscle memory Harry trusted more than language some days.
Or: Louis and Harry are happily married until a car accident leaves Harry facing a long recovery, chronic pain, and a body that doesn’t feel like his anymore. Louis copes the only way he knows how: medication alarms, humor, and a stubborn refusal to fall apart. Unfortunately, denial is not a long-term care plan.
Or: Harry changes, Louis cracks, and Patricia the shower bench becomes part of the family.

Summary
Harry Styles, Detective Chief Inspector of the Metropolitan Police's witch division, is forced by his boss to co-lead his current investigation into a string of supernatural murders with the incredibly annoying, and frustratingly hot Louis Tomlinson.
DCI Louis Tomlinson wasn’t expecting to be paired with the most uptight man he’s ever met, so naturally, he messes with him any chance he gets. The fact that his co-lead is gorgeous just makes Louis more determined to wind him up.
Together they combine cases and grapple with the elusive murderer. Can they catch a magical serial killer while dealing with their growing desire and feelings for each other?
