Summary
Shane Hollander’s life changes the night a debt comes due.
Freshly drafted and on the edge of everything he’s ever worked for, Shane learns his parents owe more money than they could ever repay, and that the man collecting isn’t interested in cash. Ilya Rozanov takes Shane instead.
As payment.
Now Shane lives under Ilya’s roof, bound by rules he never agreed to, marked by jewelry he can’t remove, and watched with an intensity that blurs the line between protection and possession. He’s still allowed to play hockey, but off the ice, his world shrinks to one man’s control. The more Shane succeeds, the tighter Ilya’s grip becomes. Because this was never about settling a debt, it was about keeping what’s his.
And the most dangerous part?
Shane is starting to feel safest right where he’s trapped.

Summary
Then like an anomaly in one of his datasets, a green OPEN tag appears next to one of the restaurants. Shane squints his eyes, having difficulty seeing properly without his glasses.
Irina's Kitchen

3 reviewsShane doesn't bother reading them. He taps on the website and waits for it to load. Only to be met with error.
Sighing he exits the page and keeps on scrolling. Nothing that is open catches his interest and the rest are closed. He's wondering how stale celery would taste dipped in pickle juice when his eyes land on Irina's Kitchen once more.
There's a phone number under the address. Shane bites his lower lip and wonders if he should call.
A woman with an accented voice picks up after the 5th ring.
“Hello?”
“Uh, hey, are you guys still open?”

"If you need a cat, and you deserve a cat, the universe will make sure that a cat finds you. That's the Cat Distribution System at work," the woman explains.
"But I don't need a cat," Shane says, baffled.
"Are you sure?" the bearded guy says, looking down at the box, where Shane is still stroking the kitten's head.
"Yes?" Shane says, frowning as the kitten rubs its small, bewhiskered cheek against his finger.
Shane finds a stray kitten; Ilya not so slowly loses his mind.

Summary
Alphas are considered brutes that need to be tamed. They are separated from the real world, living in training centers until they learn how to be useful and chosen by a beta or omega.
Eighteen year old Shane recently lost both of his parents, leaving him without a pack. He is lost and hurting, and his health is declining rapidly from years of suppressants and losing his pack. He is told he needs an alpha to balance out his hormones, reduce stress, and help him get through his irregular and painful heats. He gets given multiple options, but he can’t help but be drawn to a particular Russian alpha.

Summary
“Does it have anything to do with the person who gave you that ring?” he asks, nodding toward the band wrapped around the man's finger.
For a second, the man looks confused. Then his gaze drops to his hand, and a slow smirk spreads across his face. “Maybe. What would you say if I told you I was married?”
“I'd ask if you were happy.”
OR
Ilya meets hockey's Golden Boy, Shane Hollander, at a party and falls hard. There's only one problem: Shane's wearing a ring, just not the one Ilya thinks.
