    Summary

    Ilya barely had time to grab hold of the island countertop before he felt his knees give out. His back hit the base as he crumpled to the floor. 

    Irina. 

    "Alexei," Ilya’s voice came in gasps, "why does your daughter have our mother's name?"

    --------

    After Alexei discovers he has an illegitimate child, he turns to Ilya for help. Will Ilya choose duty to a family that despises him and save an innocent child? Or will he choose his love for Shane Hollander? Because Ilya is certain that he can't have both.

    Summary

    “Ilya, you don’t actually want to watch these, I promise. They’re just boring old kiddy games.”

    Ilya blinks. “Shane. Are you trying to tell me that I will not like something because it is ‘boring’? I think we have plenty of evidence that this is simply not true, no?”

    Shane fixes him with his most withering glare. “Well, if I’m calling something boring, imagine how boring it actually is.”

    “I know you are trying to trick me, Hollander,” Ilya states, raising a single brow. “But you will not deny me my right as your husband to see baby Shane in his tiny little skates.”

    Or: Shane and Ilya watch some of Shane’s old home movies. It leads to a few revelations.

    Summary

    It’s not until Hayden is already in Shane’s bedroom, until he’s already reaching for and opening his nightstand drawer, that his lagging brain finally catches up with the situation at hand and he realizes that maybe he shouldn’t be rifling through the personal belongings of his intensely private best friend.

    He has this thought maybe a millisecond before he finishes opening the drawer, which is already far too late. His eyes have already swept over its contents, and—

    Well. The Advil is certainly the least interesting thing it contains.

    Or: An intensely hungover Hayden goes looking for some headache relief in his best friend’s house. In his search, he discovers a stack of Polaroids that feature a very notorious face.

    Summary

    Under the guidance of his doctor and mostly out of desperation due to his last annual heat being severe enough to nearly land him in the hospital, Shane Hollander knows he needs to take a heat partner for the first time if he doesn’t want to end up in a cycle facility.
    With his options between hiring a comfort alpha or asking one Ilya Rozanov for help, the choice is clear to Shane. Even if it feels like he’s losing every shred of his dignity to ask his - rival? fuckbuddy? - whatever Rozanov is to help him through his heat, Rozanov is the only alpha he trusts enough to take care of him.
    Rozanov is due for his own rut and is more than happy to finally, finally have heat sex with Hollander. Which is why he says yes with no hesitation. No other reason, of course.
    Now they both just need to survive the week with their hearts intact, which is something far easier said than done.
