Summary
Prince Shane Hollander arrives in the frozen kingdom of Rozanova as a political sacrifice, a foreign prince married off to a man raised to hate everything he represents. King Ilya Rozanov is all broad shoulders and dangerous confidence, yet beneath the armour is a heat that catches Shane off guard. Their wedding binds two nations in suspicion, but the nights behind closed doors begin to spark with something neither can ignore.
Shane fights to survive a hostile court, the relentless cold, and the weight of living among enemies. Ilya is brutal in public, but unexpectedly gentle in private, slowly becoming the one person Shane wants to trust. Fear and pride pull them apart at the worst possible moment, and when danger finally strikes from the shadows, every buried feeling breaks open.
Duty shifts into desire, then into something fierce and consuming. With tensions rising and loyalties tested, Shane and Ilya must decide if they can stand together as more than symbols of peace. This is a marriage that turns into longing, tenderness, and a slow burn that finally turns into fire, all within a kingdom that would rather see them fall than hold each other.

the best person to be stuck in an elevator with by Sporkess

Summary
There's no good way to be stuck in an elevator. Not when you're stuck in an elevator with someone who treats being annoying as an art form he wants to perfect, and definitely not when that person is your son's rival who you've hated for years.
But, when Yuna finds herself stuck in an elevator with Ilya Rozanov, she realises there's more to the story than she'd seen.

Summary
Jane: We didn't even kiss.
The words stare back at him. They fucking taunt him, the same way Ilya does with that wink of his, with his smirk and his deep voice.
Abruptly, Shane feels pissed off and a little like he’s grasping for something that’s slipping away. He feels the way he did in that bathroom, the first time he had Ilya’s attention for months and didn’t want to let Ilya escape without stealing more of it.
The elevator door opens. Shane does not get off.
Instead, he presses the button for Penthouse 1 and hits send on We didn’t even kiss.
He watches the floor numbers increase as the elevator carries him back to Ilya. Shane has no idea what he’s going to say to the asshole but he knows he has so many words that are about to burst out of his mouth.
Fuck you being the first two.
OR Shane goes back for that kiss.

Summary
“I think, at this point, we are friends, no?” Ilya asks, his back still to Shane.
“Are we?” Shane asks, and Ilya’s lip quirks at the way he can hear the curiosity bleed through Shane’s tone, despite the way he’s clearly trying so hard to sound indifferent.
“I consider you a friend, yes. We had food together. Hung out,” he explains.
“Okay. Sure, yeah,” Shane agrees, meeting Ilya’s eyes as he turns around to face him. “Friends.”
“Good. It is important you know this,” Ilya asks, stepping across the slightly echoey room, his hand going to tilt Shane’s jaw up. “It’s important for you to know I like you,” he says, watching with amusement as more confusion spreads across Shane’s pretty face.
“Why?”
“Because,” Ilya says softly, condescendingly as he leans down, his mouth close to Shane’s. Shane is so receptive to him, his lips already parting, expecting a kiss. “I am going to fuck you like I hate you,” he finishes, watching as Shane’s jaw drops a little, his breath hitching.

“i hate this,” ilya mumbles, his hand trailing up shane’s back to push his hair away from his face as he pouts. “is annoyance.”
shane hums sympathetically as he shifts on the bed, and he sits up in order to swing his leg over ilya’s hips, settling in the cradle of them; one of his hands settles on ilya’s chest as the other presses gently on his bad wrist- not enough to hurt, just enough to make a point.
“well, how about this? if you can keep this hand-” shane taps ilya’s wrist pointedly again as he speaks, “-right here, then I’ll do something to take your mind off of it.”

Summary
[“Some are saying Rozanov was targeting you specifically, trying to disrupt you as a key playmaker,” another journalist jumps in, glancing down at his notebook. “He had you up against the boards a lot, and registered five hits compared to his season average of two point five per game. Some are saying the refs missed some calls there. How did you handle that physicality and keep focusing on playmaking?”
“Well,” Shane manages to say as his entire body flushes, as he thinks about how just two days ago he handled— “Rozanov is a great player, and I think the scoreboard speaks for itself at the end of the day.”]
OR,
Montreal and Boston play each other back-to-back, and things get physical.

Summary
“He was fucking all over you,” Shane growls, fire raging at a very specific point in his chest now.
Ilya’s amused smile is fucking diesel.
“You jealous, Hollander?”
Shane scoffs, which isn’t much of a helpful response. So instead, he catches Ilya by surprise and shoves him against the wall, choosing his words carefully.
“I’m not jealous, because I know exactly who you belong to. But do you?”

Wyatt was not, like, nosy. For sure, he was interested. He was curious. He engaged with people, obviously, because most people were interesting and engaging and had cool thoughts and said neat stuff if you asked.
So, no. Wyatt wasn’t nosy, but he wasn’t stupid, either.

Shane laughed. “You wanna kiss me on television?”
“Yes. After I win the Stanley Cup.”
Shane spread his arms out. “Oh, so in this romantic scenario, you’ve just defeated me?”
“Yes. Sorry.”
