    Summary

    After a fight that leaves everything unsaid, Ilya is alone in Ottawa with a silence that feels too heavy to survive. When the thoughts in his head grow louder than the world around him, he makes a choice he thinks he can’t take back.

    Two hours away, Shane hears something in Ilya’s voice that makes his blood run cold. He leaves everything behind—his team, the game, the rules of the road—and drives through the night with only one thought in his head: don’t be too late.

    A story about regret, desperation, and loving someone so much you’ll break down doors to keep them alive—about what it means to race against time when time is already slipping through your fingers.

    Summary

    Ilya stays in bed long after Shane leaves, wrapped in the scent of his husband and the ache he never quite knows what to do with. The day drifts by in half-sleep, reality TV, smoothies left on the counter and the quiet weight of grief that still follows him.

    “Yesterday was hard. Today is numb. But tomorrow? Tomorrow I think I will be back.”
