    Summary

    “You know, I see the way you look at me on the ice,” Rozanov states. “Can smell the arousal coming off you each time we interact— especially when I check you into the boards, you really like that. Or when we chirp. You like that too. I don’t know a whole lot about what humans find attractive, but I think I made a good choice when I picked this disguise.”

    What Rozanov is saying isn’t a lie— Shane has always found him incredibly attractive. Shane has never acted on his attraction towards him, of course, since being gay in the MLH would be a death sentence to his hockey career. No one knows he likes men, or that he’s attracted to Rozanov. —Well, except for Rozanov apparently... who is also apparently not human!

    “Sometimes…” Rozanov muses, “when you come home from our games… you jerk off to the thought of me.”

    “Can…can you read minds?” Shane asks, thinking that must be the case.

    Rozanov chuckles in response— a genuine sound, not cruel or sinister, and Shane hates how it makes his heart flutters.
    “I don’t need to read your mind,” Rozanov answers. “I just watch you do it.”

    “W...what?”

    “I’ve been watching you for a looong time, Shane Hollander.”

    Summary

    If it came down to a choice, Shane and Ilya would always pick each other, even if it meant going against everyone else's expectations and desires. Time and again, they're met with formidable proof that no one would accept their relationship, so down to the wire, Shane and Ilya have a choice to make: Do we stay and make it work? Or do we leave it all behind, and choose a life that gives us a future?
    No choice will make everyone (or anyone) happy, but when you've been hiding so long, how much more can you take when the one thing still worth living for is in reach? Are you willing to hurt the people you love to choose yourself? Are you willing to love the people that have hurt you, if it means loving from afar?

    Summary

    Shane Hollander is the sole Omega within the NHL. He’s been running from his own instincts since the moment he first presented and lives his life akin to that of a Beta; scentless, never nesting, and without a heat cycle. Any failure to conform to these ideals would result in being outcast from his peers and by the league altogether.

    Ilya is the only Alpha in ice hockey that plays without the use of suppressants. He lives his life purely driven by instinct, running from the ghosts of those attempting to control him. Unbeknownst to Shane, he’s also the only person that can smell the Omega, and the scent is steadily driving the Alpha insane.

    Summary

    For the first time in nineteen years, a sudden, blinding flash of color flooded Ilya’s world.

    It was as if a dormant switch inside him had been violently flipped on. His Alpha instincts, usually as dormant and indifferent as the rest of him, surged forward with a fierce, possessive roar that made his blood run hot. The dull gray reality he had inhabited his entire life vanished, replaced by a single, absolute, unyielding mandate:

    That Omega is mine.

    Ilya didn’t know his name. He didn’t know his story, or his background. But as his blue eyes locked onto the stunning stranger, watching the way his warm brown eyes crinkled with a soft, gentle laugh, Ilya knew with absolute certainty that he would stop at nothing until that Omega belonged to him.
