    Summary

    Shane Hollander would probably rather die than admit to the world (or himself) that he’s a sub, because all respected NHL players are doms. When years of living a touch-starved, repressed, hockey-focused life finally catch up with him and cause a medical emergency, he’s not scared or sad. He’s fucking angry. And he becomes Ilya Rozanov’s problem at the Behavioral Education & Authority Relationships Services (B.E.A.R.S. for short).

    or: Shane is strong, stubborn, difficult and he bites. Ilya is extremely patient but instantly whipped. A not entirely typical bdsm AU.

    Summary

    Shane is hiding something that could end his career.

    Ilya is the kind of person who doesn’t stop until he finds it.

    What starts as rivalry turns into fixation.

    Because something about Shane doesn’t make sense,
    his control, his scent, the way he reacts.

    And Ilya doesn’t like unsolved patterns.

    He likes breaking them open.

    Even if it breaks Shane with it.

    Not instinct. Not luck. Not being an alpha.

    Control.

    So when he watches Shane play, he sees it immediately, something precise, something careful, something just out of reach.

    Something hidden.

    And Ilya has never been good at leaving things alone.

    Summary

    After coming out to Rose, Shane decides he doesn't want to lie anymore, even if he isn't sure coming out will mean he gets happily ever after with Ilya. When coming out to the Voyageurs leaves him wondering what his future in Montreal might look like, he lets himself be a little selfish, he lets himself wonder if there might be somewhere else he might be happy. If Montreal wants to get rid of a generational player, he's not about to stop them, especially if it means he can get a little closer to joy.

    --

    Or: Shane Hollander leaves Montreal in search of something better.
