    Summary

    Those first few moments, though… the rigidity, the preparation for the worst, the clear expectation of rejection and coldness, felt too familiar to David. It was the stance of someone who was ready to be demeaned and have to respond “Yes, sir. Sorry, sir.”

    It was a posture David knew too well from his own youth and teenage years, and he couldn’t stomach that anyone, never mind a guest in his own home and the man who looked at his son with such open adoration, would assume David would require that. He couldn’t allow that to stand.

    Summary

    Yuna did not hate Rozanov, no — she despised him. Just the mention of his name let her blood boil inside her veins. Shane did not work his ass off to only be reduced to some kind of rivalry. He deserved the spotlight and praise for his own achievements and Yuna fought the urge to scream whenever her son just shrugged it off as if he didn't care. She couldn't fathom how he could be so nonchalant about all of this. He should be enraged and angry and stand up for himself. He was his own person, not an extension to some Russian who thought he was above everyone else!

    And then Rozanov had the audacity to show up at the hospital, looking like his whole world had shattered in front of his eyes.

    This work is part of a series and the direct continuation of part 1. It could be read as a standalone but I don't recommend it.

    Summary

    "I love you so much," whispered Shane as he forced himself to pull away from Ilya's face, "I'm so happy. Are you happy?"

    Ilya looked at him with those eyes, his eyes, large, gentle and glistening, brimming with endless emotions. Shane could see tears welling up at the corners. A smile trembled on his lips but he couldn't bring himself to wipe it away. He took Shane's hand and brought it to his lips, kissing every single finger with devotion.

    "Terribly happy," he replied.
