    Summary

    People often mistook Shane as unemotional or unexpressive. These people were wrong. Shane wore every thought on his face, if you were paying attention. Ilya had been paying attention to every muscle twitch for five years. He was fluent in Shane Hollander’s microexpressions. The widening of his eyes when something delighted him. The flaring of his nostrils when he was annoyed. The tightening of his jaw when he was nervous.

    Right now, Ilya couldn’t identify a single god-forsaken emotion on Shane’s face.

    “Are you okay?” Ilya’s voice cracked.

    Shane didn’t react. “Never better. Is that all?”

    ...

    Shane Hollander gets Hanahaki at the Sochi Olympics. He is not ready to die. He's determined to fall out of love with Ilya Rozanov. Unfortunately when that doesn't work, he takes the only other way out.
