    Summary

    “How can Montreal be snowed in?” Ilya asks. “They are not ready for winter?”

    “It’s Montreal, man,” Marleau snickers, like that's an explanation.

    Ilya’s phone buzzes.

    Jane- 9:44 a.m.- Look on the bright side. If you’re stuck another day, you can come back here.

    ________

    After Ilya leaves Shane’s apartment for the first time, he knows he’s on thin ice and at risk of falling into more serious feelings. He’s ready to put distance back between them.

    A Montreal blizzard has other ideas.

    Summary

    If there’s ever been any doubt in his mind just how much Shane loves this man, it vanishes with the glossy blankness of Ilya’s expression. Blood from a stone indeed.

    “My father was very fair,” Ilya says immediately, and it’s got the rigid, almost mechanical emphasis of something practiced a thousand times. “If I was bad, I pay price. No problem.”

    “I think maybe we have a different definition of the word fair.”

    “Yes,” Ilya admits. “Probably. Shane thinks so.”

    Summary

    Ilya Rozanov has a secret that could ruin him. He’s an Omega—something that, in Russia, could get him mated off, trafficked, or killed. Something that would get him banned from the MHL without a second thought. He’s been on suppressants since he was twelve, and now the thing keeping him alive is slowly killing him.

    Scott Hunter has secrets of his own. He’s gay. He’s packless. And despite being the new captain of the New York Raiders, he’s never felt more alone.

    Then fate throws them together. Shane Hollander falls sick before a commercial shoot with Ilya, and Scott has a favor called in.

    By the time they hit the showers, Ilya is slipping into preheat and has no idea how to handle the hunger clawing at him. Scott is frustrated, lonely, and in the wrong place at exactly the wrong time. One impulsive decision sends them back to Scott’s apartment…

    In the middle of the night, Ilya wakes up in the throes of heat. His distress and fear trigger Scott’s Alpha, but not in the way either of them expects. He claims Ilya not as a mate, but as a pup.
