    Summary

    As his breathing turned rapid and labored, he felt the unmistakable presence of a foreign force pulling him through a closed door. He heard a lock. Before his mind could process the occurrence, he was suddenly enveloped - caught in the unyielding grip of two powerful arms - unforgivingly tight. He couldn’t see who, he could barely process where and why, but he felt himself shaking and his eyes burning and leaking raindrops on the shoulder of the force who squeezed tighter. Minutes passed, who knows how many, in complete silence other than the gasps coming from Shane as he sobbed. When he felt his heart reach a relatively normal pace, and the drumming in his ears quieted, he felt himself melt for a moment in the arms he still hadn’t recognized until he heard the voice. “Hollander, you are having panic attack.” Shane froze.

    *****************

    Shane Hollander and Ilya Rozanov are true rivals.

    5 years into their MLH careers, Shane Hollander is outed and the only one there to save him is the man he hates the most.

    Summary

    Ilya grinned smugly. “Fine. That is what I thought. Let me fuck you, Shane, I promise it will be so much better than fine.”

    “Why are you so obsessed with me?”

    “You are pretty. And I like a challenge.”

    “Asshole,” Shane spat.

    “I get off at eleven. Come home with me tonight.”

    “Fuck you. I’m not cheating on my boyfriend.”

    Ilya hooked his lip between his teeth, looking Shane up and down like a predator. “...Okay. Let me have your number.”

    ~~

    Shane never meant to get caught up in this situation. Ilya Rozanov was a damn asshole. He was just also really, really hot.

    Summary

    As a straight man, Ilya Rozanov has never had a gay roommate before, but it’s going pretty well. Shane Hollander is kind, silly, and an even bigger hockey nut than Ilya.

    So when Shane starts bringing men over, and Ilya begins to want to bash their fucking heads in, Ilya comes to a startling conclusion: He must be homophobic.

    (He’s jealous.)
