    Summary

    Shane freezes.
    It hits him all at once; how exposed he is, how alone. On the ice he’s done it a hundred times, likely more. It’s expected of him, Applauded. His arms feel heavy at his sides, fingers numb, like they don’t belong to him, and he doesn’t understand why. The man infront of him is swaying so hard a stiff breeze could knock him over, so why? Why is Shane so scared? Why is he so-?
    The stranger must see it. Whatever bravado the man walked out with curdles into something mean when he realizes Shane isn’t going to swing back. Fear is blood in the water. Shane's thoughts are scattered, looping: he’s so far from home. He’s alone. So far from home. Don’t get hit. Don’t get hit.
    The man draws his fist back. No penalty.

    Summary

    "I say when you come," Rozanov explained, kneading the muscle of Shane's ass. "You listen. Only then, yes?"

    Shane blinked, processing. It felt almost too vulnerable, to give up all control that way. But underneath was a need to prove himself: to live up to the hungry want painted over Rozanov's face.
