    Summary

    When Gilbert Comeau targets Shane on the ice, causing a season-ending injury, Ilya sees red and nearly loses everything he ate at dinner.

    It was a dirty hit; they all knew it. Ilya, devastated by Shane's injuries that left him semi-conscious in a hospital bed, learns what it means to have a family and what "for better or worse" meant in his wedding vows. His days are full of misunderstandings with his mother-in-law, panic, caring for his husband, and seeing his team step up for his family in times of injury.

    Or: Shane gets a concussion, breaks his ankle, Ilya is a Very Good Husband (and a very angry captain), the Centaurs step up, and Anya is a very protective pup.

    SHANE: Lily.
    LILY: Hello
    SHANE: Dead to me.
    What the actual fuck?
    LILY: ??
    SHANE: what. The. Hell. Did. You. Do.
    LILY: ahh
    I am in trouble
    Yes?

     
    Or Ilya's teammates add "Jane" to the Boston WAG group chat in the height of their "no, we aren't falling in love, whatever do you mean" era (2014-2016-ish?).

    Summary

    "And is like I said, very easy to do. You just lay back and let someone else do work. Could do it in my sleep, would not be problem at all for me to come hands-free.”

    Hollander scowled, full competitive personality shining through. “Prove it.”

    “Fine, I will,” Ilya snapped back.

    Hollander's eyes went wide, and so did Ilya's when he realized what he had promised. His words hung in the air between them, suddenly heavy with implication.

    ---
    Ilya doesn't think switching with Hollander one time for the sake of settling a bet will change anything about their arrangement, and it certainly wouldn't make him discover anything about himself. Afterall, it would only be one time, right?

    Summary

    In 2017, Shane and Ilya ended their not-relationship for good.

    All because Grigori Rozanov is alive and well, and Ilya Rozanov’s life is still held under this thumb.

    3 years later, unbeknownst to each other, they are both traded to Ottawa.
    Shane, involuntarily, is ousted from Montreal after his teammates discover his biggest secret.
    Ilya, voluntarily, chooses to tank his career and take a salary cut in the hopes it will free him from the burdens of his family’s dependence on him.

    Both are ready to start fresh. Both want their freedom. Both are wholly unprepared for the resurgence of the feelings they’ve kept buried once they see their names side by side in the Centaur’s locker room.
