    Summary

    During the quiet stretch of the off-season, when the world slows and the rink sits nearly empty, Shane and Ilya make a life-changing decision, they become foster parents.

    They expect paperwork, waiting, and time to prepare. Instead, they get three children that same night.

    Logan, Kaitlyn, and Maggie arrive with everything they own in trash bags and more weight on their shoulders than any child should carry. What follows is their journey of learning how to comfort, navigate anger, and how to build trust with kids who have only ever known instability.

    Summary

    Ilya's forearms flexed beneath the sleeves of his black Henley—he’d paired it with black jeans and a black ball cap—as he carried their daughter’s car seat, the black Burberry diaper backpack slung over one shoulder. Every twenty seconds, Ilya glanced down to check on her.

    Shane had fully intended to argue for the privilege of carrying her out. Then he'd seen Ilya carrying her. And, well…

    Watching his husband carry their daughter while looking like someone’s ridiculously hot dad wasn’t exactly suffering. So Shane lingered half a step behind, mostly because he enjoyed the view.

    “Stop thirsting over me, Shane,” Ilya said without turning around. “We are in public.”

    "What?" Shane blushed. “I'm not.”

    The nurse escorting them down the hall let out a laugh.

    “I've been married to you long enough,” Ilya said. “I think I can feel when you are undressing me with your eyes.”

    “Sorry about him,” Shane said to the nurse.

    “You guys are so cute,” she said.

    Or Two years after TLG, Shane and Ilya are married, living together, and playing for the same team. Over the next year, they must tackle the biggest challenge they've faced together... parenting.

    Summary

    "I did not have an easy childhood," Ilya said simply.
    His words were calm, matter-of-fact, his voice gentle.
    "I know what it feels like when the adults around you cannot give you what you need."

    Shane felt his chest tighten.

    "I cannot change that for the boy I was." A small silence settled over the room.
    "But maybe..." Ilya continued, his voice softer now, "I can help change it for somebody else."

    Summary

    Ilya’s heart is breaking. He doesn’t want the first thing he does, the very first thing, after Shane’s choices have been so brutally ripped away from him, to be something Shane is begging him not to do. But Shane is seriously injured, much beyond what they can handle with first aid at home or even if they found a discreet doctor to make a house call. He will need an MRI, a broken bone set, probably surgery. And evidence should be collected too, for the police. That part Ilya will not push him on. But he cannot let Shane risk his life for his pride and the fear of shame that has controlled him for so long. “I am sorry, moy lyubimyy,” Ilya says, “So sorry. But Marleau is calling ambulance, and you are going to the hospital.”

    ***

    Shane and Ilya are spending Christmas together in Boston during Ilya's last season playing for the Bears. They're finally out, and they're in love, and soon they'll only live two hours apart.

    When Shane is assaulted, the plans they had built for their future collapse. Now the road ahead is a long, grueling process of physical and psychological recovery. What they had before-the sex, the playful power exchange, the easy trust-is gone, and they have to build something new, together.
