Summary
The NHL is not a good place for omegas, which is why Ilya Rozenov became a beta. But what happens when, after five years, the secret is revealed and Ilya has only one option left: to flee to the only team where another omega already plays?
Five years ago, Shane was given an unprecedented opportunity by Montreal – to play in the NHL regardless of his omega designation. Now Shane's former archival is being traded to Montreal, and even though he should hate Ilya Rozanov more than anything, Shane finds himself wanting to teach Ilya how to be an omega.

Summary
“You should probably uh…stay safe then.” Shane babbles, exhaustion driving away any common sense or rationality.
Throwing his head back, Rozanov laughs. It grows increasingly hysterical, until Shane can see unshed tears in the corners of Rozanov’s eyes.
“You say, ‘stay safe Rozanov.’” Rozanov pinches his nose as he says this and adopts a high-pitched tone. He crosses his arms over his chest and poses like he’s on a superhero poster, mimicking Shane’s Rolex ad. “But it’s hockey. There’s no way to stay safe.”
“I don’t sound like that,” Shane grumbles.
Rozanov tilts his head to the side. His pupils are dilated in the low light of Shane’s apartment and he shrugs, stuffing his hands in his pockets again. “We will test more next time. In Boston.”
It takes a year for Shane Hollander to realize that he's somehow magically protecting his rival, Ilya Rozanov, from harm. It takes another several years, and a lot of hooking up, for him to figure out why.

Summary
Rozanov cocked his head. “You speak Russian? Or just the curse words?”
“Yes, I speak Russian,” he snapped, defensive and angry. He knew that it had been a mistake to even try to be friendly with Rozanov. “Why? Do I not look Russian to you?” He scoffed.
“No, not really,” Rozanov said. Some of his teammates laughed, although they mostly looked surprised that Shane was speaking to them at all. Rozanov didn’t laugh, though. “Are you Russian?”
“Go fuck yourself.”
+++
Despite an inauspicious start, when Russia’s Ilya Rozanov learns that Canada’s Shane Hollander is fluent in Russian at their first World Junior Championships tournament, it changes everything and sets them on a different course. Instead of being branded as rivals from the very beginning, Ilya and Shane start off as friends.
And, after all, a little friendly rivalry never hurt anyone, did it?

Summary
Arthur found Merlin in his chambers, curled so tightly around a pillow he worried he'd hurt himself. He held his servant until they fell asleep, sheltered in the darkness of the curtains.
They should know that falling asleep in the afternoon is a guarantee that they'll wake in the middle of the night, when trying to figure out if something is real or just a dream can be...interesting.

Summary
“I would’ve thought you knew that I would never hurt you, Merlin, but I suppose I was wrong. When we return, you are relieved from your duties as my manservant for the time being.”
“Arthur, please, I—”
“Shut up, Merlin!” Arthur had shouted, the anger Merlin had expected finally bursting out of him. “I can hardly stand to look at you without losing my temper! Just— I need some space. To … think.”—
In the wake of Merlin's magic being revealed, both Arthur and Merlin fall into patterns that threaten to undo them.
Or: Arthur is touch-starved, Merlin is just starving.
