    Summary

    “Curtis, let me get this straight,” Ilya said, still half asleep. ”Are you telling me I grow up in Russia, I worry whole time about dangers of being gay, I risk those dangers and my job when I am outed, am only safe after I marry my husband, but am lucky enough to never have formal trouble with tyrannical regime, only to officially be reprimanded by suburban Canadian neighborhood code for the property I own?”

    “No one is trying to stop you from being gay Mr. Rozanov.”

    “Hollander-Rozanov.”

    “We just ask that you follow the neighborhood’s bylaws about how you display it.”

    “Funny,” Ilya said dryly. “Putin told me the same thing.”

    OR Shane and Ilya Hollander-Rozanov are a lot of things, including bitchy gays. As they put up with less bullshit in married life, their petty side shows more. Never come between a professional ragebaiter and his bitch wife.

    Summary

    “Go?” Rozanov repeats, and Shane thinks he manages to nod, thinks he manages to spin some kind of excuse that he knows Rozanov doesn’t really buy, but he needs to go. He needs to get out of here. He needs to find somewhere quiet and calm where he can ride out this panic and painful tightness until he can catch his breath again. He needs-

    He needs to go.

    “I’m sorry,” he says, turning heel and resisting the urge to just book it right for the front door only because he’d rather not have to explain to Hayden why he returned from a hookup with Boston Lily in men’s clothes that he certainly didn’t leave in.

    It’s not until he makes it halfway up the stairs to Rozanov’s bedroom that it occurs to him in a cold rush that it isn’t just anxiety that makes it this hard to breathe.

    “No,” he tells himself firmly, white knuckling the bannister and trying to take a deep breath just to prove that he can.

    It wheezes.

    Summary

    It's then that the alert comes though.

    It buzzes his phone lightly as the headline comes across the top of his screen, yet he only catches the words 'Ilya Rozanov' before the alert goes away.

    He clicks over to it, assuming it'll be a highlight from one of last season's games. They may not have won the cup that season, but they made playoffs. Shane was certain they'd get it this year.

    Only, when the article opens it doesn't say something like 'Ilya Rozanov, Best Goals Breakdown' or 'Ilya Rozanov, Craziest Come Back' instead it says:

    'Ilya Rozanov, Beloved Husband, Captain, and Friend. Dead at Thirty-one'

    OR
    Ilya takes a brand deal without Shane out of the country. Somehow, his plane gets diverted to Moscow, Russia. As an out, bisexual, man married to a gay man, it isn't exactly where he wants to be. Yet he has no choice, and when someone tries to kill him, he isn't fast enough to stop the news from breaking and his world from slowly crumbling around him.
    OR or:
    Alexei is a piece of shit, Ilya is presumed dead, Shane loses his fucking mind. It's all downhill for a while but thing's start looking up eventually.

    Summary

    The next pop was almost deafening in the aftermath. The energy in the stadium shifted in an instant. The screaming turned terrified.

    Those were shots, Shane realized, a second too late.

    "Get off the ice!" someone yelled.

    All hell broke loose.

    Or:

    April 2017
    Marlow's hit doesn't knock Shane out. But then shots are fired in the arena and suddenly everything changes. After all, it's difficult to hang onto secrets with death looming over their heads.
