    Summary

    Marlow's hit leaves Shane with a brain hemorrhage, no one knows when or if he will wake from sedation.

    Ilya's world comes to a halt. Desperate for answers, he comes up with the only plan he can think of, and it requires Svetlana.

    Meanwhile, Yuna is surviving on adrenaline, caffeine, and sheer stubbornness when two women begin looking for her: Lily claims to be Shane's close friend from Boston, and Helen Brooks manages Shane's investment property Yuna never heard about.

    The longer Shane sleeps, the harder it becomes to tell where love ends and intrusion begins.
    _____

    For Yuna, it was a nightmare. For everyone else, it was ten seconds in the afternoon news and worry whether the Meteors could hold on to first place in the conference without their captain. Before she could jab at the button and change the station, hosts said that they had a good chance because Boston’s captain was about to miss in games too.

    Summary

    Shane Hollander doesn’t do cheat days.
    Not with his training. Not with his diet. Not with his life.
    Then a ridiculously attractive Russian-Italian chef in Milano force-feeds him the best ravioli he’s ever had and calls him a good boy and things spiral from there.
    Between Olympic pressure, impossible expectations, and a connection neither of them is ready to name, Shane finds himself unraveling in ways he doesn’t understand.

    Summary

    “Oh, I love it. I love ugly, brutal things. But you make it beautiful, too, Shane Hollander, with the way you play, and that is what I have come to watch. You are so light on your edges, so crisp and graceful. You are dancing on knives, and everyone else is trying not to fall.” He pushed himself away from the pillar, and Shane held very still, frozen, as Rozanov reached out to cup his chin, gripping it so hard Shane’s lips parted. “Beautiful,” he said firmly.

     

    Or: Shane Hollander, Gold Medallist, encounters Ilya Rozanov, leshy.

    Summary

    Shane should have expected it, is the thing. He should have seen this coming. He feels naive, stupid, for not even thinking about the possibility.

    Werewolves mate for life.

    He knew this. It was something his parents had told him when he was just a pup, bumbling around with paws too big for his body.

    Werewolves mate for life.

    ------
    Shane is a werewolf, and werewolves only have one mate throughout their entire lives. Ilya is a human and he has no idea about any of this.

    This fic follows the end of the Heated Rivalry TV show and beyond except Shane is a werewolf.

    Summary

    “The specific area that was damaged in the fall is what we refer to as the GAF center of the brain.” 

    “GAF?” Ilya asks, puzzled. “Doctor Matthieu, English is not my first language. Can you please speak plainly.”  

    “GAF stands for Give A Fuck.” 

    Ilya’s eyebrows shot to the top of his hairline. “...What?” 

    “I’m afraid that Shane is no longer able to give a fuck.” 

    OR

    After Shane's collision with Cliff Marlow, Shane damages the part of his brain where all of his fucks are stored. No longer able to give a fuck, he confesses his true feelings to Ilya, and says some things to his parents that he normally never would have dared.
