    Summary

    “You like it, right?” Shane whispered against his lips.

    “Hm?” Ilya tried hard to focus on Shane’s words but Shane felt too good, the pressure of his ass on Ilya’s crotch too maddeningly distracting.

    Shane leaned in so that his mouth was now right on Ilya’s ear, stilling his movements. “I said,” he breathed hotly, “you like it? Being my dog?”

    And this was new. The words sent an electric shock down Ilya’s spine, making him involuntarily thrust up into Shane. Ilya swallowed, closing his eyes and nodding furiously, as Shane nibbled on his ear lobe and sucked sweetly at the skin there.

    “Speak,” Shane said simply, the same tone he used when talking to Chiron or Anya. When talking to dogs.

    “Fuck,” Ilya choked out. “Yes, da, yes, I like being your dog.”

    or, Ilya discovers a new kink about himself.

    Summary

    Yeah, maybe Yuna should have just responded to the frantic texts. But Shane never gave them any details about the people he was dating. This Lily seemed genuinely worried, and if a phone call would get her a better read on the girl, that would be a coincidence at best. Shane knew she preferred talking on the phone, and if she used her own phone, she’d avoid invading any more of his privacy.

    She figured his current condition would be a higher priority to address than his mother calling the girl he was seeing. He’d be satisfied that his Lily would know how he was doing, and Yuna would be satisfied to connect with this girl who seemed to enchant his serious and stoic son. The phone rang twice before Yuna was sent to voicemail.

    "Hi. This is Ilya. I will never listen to your voicemail."

    Yuna may have miscalculated.

    Summary

    “Hollander’s Metros have had a challenging few years, with back-to-back knee injuries and a concussion keeping the two-time Stanley Cup winner and Olympic gold medalist off the ice for three consecutive postseason runs. Hollander is apparently back to fighting trim, but everyone’s wondering if that will still be true come April. The Metros have promised that they’re behind their franchise star one hundred percent, but there are signs they might be hedging their bets. The Metros announced last week that they have penned a deal with San Francisco’s dynamic young Russian star, center Ilya Rozanov. The move has sent shockwaves through MLH, as San Francisco was widely expected to sign a contract extension with Rozanov, who became a restricted free agent in June.”

    Summary

    For the last five years, Shane had led the cavalry division of their retinue, and Ilya, whose skill with a broadsword was legendary across the kingdom, led the infantry. They were each as deadly as the other, on foot or on horseback, but they had preferred the option of joint captaincy to sole command of smaller cavalry companies. Most knights would have refused to command on foot, but not Ilya, who said he was no different from the rest of the men, who may not have been plucked from their homes to be trained for the Prince’s Guard, but who fought with the same valor. This stance was among the many reasons that their men loved him.

    “Shane. You know he is not a good regent.”

    Shane set his jaw.

    They had had so many versions of this conversation.

    Summary

    “Ilya. That was his name. Ilya. Ilya, who always ordered his ice cold monstrosity of a vanilla latte with 8 pumps of vanilla syrup and whole milk. Ilya, a dog walker by profession and the most irritating person on planet earth by trade. Shane had never met anyone so absolutely infuriating before. It made him feel exhausted before 9:30 am, which, as someone who also had to go work his shifts at The Kingfisher right after working at the coffee shop every Thursday and Saturday, was really unfortunate.”

     

    Harvard Law student Ilya Rozanov loves nothing more than annoying barista and Biology grad student Shane Hollander. When their paths cross at Shane’s second job as a bartender, Shane makes some interesting realizations about how he feels towards his nemesis. They say the line between love and hate is quite thin. For Shane and Ilya, it might not even exist at all.
