Post TLG Shane and Ilya have to stay with Yuna and David for a few days because the repairs to the cottage weren’t finished by the time the season ended. The first night, Shane tries to initiate sex but Ilya shuts him down. Shane is worried that something is wrong but Ilya is like “You’re too loud, they’ll hear” and Shane spends the next 10 minutes trying to convince Ilya he’ll be quiet (“I’ll be quiet. I’ll suck on your fingers to keep quiet, Ilya.”). Meanwhile, down the hall, Yuna and David are having the exact same argument (“No, David. You’ve been so loud since Shane moved out. The boys will hear.” “…I can’t make noise if you sit on my face.”)
Post TLG Shane and Ilya have a huge fight, and Shane goes to the guest bedroom to sleep. He’s lying in bed, wide awake, when the door flies open and Ilya walks in. He silently climbs into bed, back to Shane. Shane turns to look at Ilya’s back but doesn’t say anything. He just gets out of bed with a huff and goes back to their room. If Ilya wants the guest bedroom, he can have it. Shane climbs into their bed and starts to situate himself when Ilya comes into the bedroom and gets into bed. Shane rolls his eyes, hops out of bed and goes to the couch. He’s pulling the blanket around himself when Ilya enters the room and sits on the other end of the couch. He grabs a blanket and puts it on himself.
“What is your problem?” Shane asks. “I gave up our bedroom and the guest room and now you’re here.”
“We sleep in same place no matter what.” Ilya says as he swings his legs into the couch. “So stay or I follow you around home.” His feet touch Shane’s but Shane pulls his legs away from Ilya.
“Fine, goodnight.” Shane curls up on the couch to sleep. He isn’t sure how much time has passed but he can tell Ilya is asleep by his breathing. Shane sits up and just stares at Ilya for a while before carefully getting off the couch. He goes over to Ilya and picks him up, carrying him to the bedroom. “Wha?”
“You can’t sleep on the couch. It’s not good for your back.” Shane explains as he lays Ilya on the bed.
“Do not go to couch.”
“I’m not.” Shane climbs into bed beside Ilya. He presses a kiss to Ilya’s temple. “Goodnight. Love you.”
“If I say sorry, do I get proper kiss and proper I love you.”
Shane kisses Ilya on the lips. “Ya tebya lyublyu.”
Shane accidentally breaks Ilya’s chain. The two are roughhousing at Shane’s place when Shane reaches up to grab the back of Ilya’s neck. His hand slips, his fingers get caught in the chain and it breaks. The necklace falls onto Shane’s chest and the room falls silent.
“Shit! Rozanov, I’m so sorry. I didn’t mean-.”
“I know.” Ilya quickly scoops his mother’s necklace and examines it. He sees that the clasp is broken. He looks up to tell Shane about the clasp that’s when he notices Shane’s heavy breathing. Shane’s hands are trembling and there are tears in his eyes. “Hollander, it is okay.”
Shane shakes his head. “No, I’ve ruined it.”
“Hey, it is fine, is just clasp. I broke it before. It is easy fix.” That’s a lie. Ilya has never broken his mother’s chain but Shane is on the verge of a panic attack and he needs to calm him down.
“Really?” Shane questions and Ilya nods. “Let me up.” Ilya moves off of Shane and watches as he goes over to his dresser. He looks through a box before going over to Ilya.
“I got this from a brand deal but I don’t really wear jewelry. You can use this until the chain gets fixed.” Shane offers Ilya the box. He opens it to find a thin gold chain staring back at him. Ilya carefully takes the cross off the broken chain and threads it onto the one Shane gave him. He asks Shane to put it on him and Shane happily obliges.
If Shane notices that Ilya is still wearing the chain he gifted the next time they hook up, he doesn’t mention it.
Some time, probably a long time later, probably when they're already married, Ilya does get his mother's chain repaired and gives it to Shane.
No, Shane still doesn't really wear jewellery, but his wedding ring needs to go somewhere. He can't wear it on his finger while playing, too dangerous (don't google degloving injuries, I warned you!), and he was on the verge of a panic attack at least once when he thought he'd lost it in his locker or wallet or wherever he put it to keep it safe. He doesn't like taking it off anyway. It's not like it's jewellery, it's his goddamn wedding ring.
Ilya might not have had a family heirloom engagement ring to propose with, but that chain's the next best thing. Always close to Shane's heart from that day onward.
AU where Ilya is the face of the league and star player on the Metros. He’s a free agent and plans on resigning with the Metros. The Centaurs want to discuss a potential deal over a meal and Ilya isn’t about to say no to a free meal. Ilya figures he’ll eat and then gently tell the representative that he’s going to stay with the Metros, that is until Shane walks through the door. Shane Hollander, son of the owner, Yuna Hollander, sits down at the table and starts talking about the team, the kind of money they can offer him, and Ilya can’t sign that contract fast enough.
Post TLG Ilya takes a nasty hit on the ice and ends up paralyzed from the waist down. Shane takes a leave of absence from the team to care for Ilya. Obviously it’s hard for them at first, but they fall into a routine and things seems to be looking up. At least, that’s what Shane thinks until he comes back from the store and Ilya presents him with divorce papers.
Ilya tells him that being paralyzed put things into perspective for him, and he doesn’t want to spend the rest of his life with someone like Shane. The two argue. Shane gets so frustrated that he takes the divorce papers and puts them on top of their trophy case. He tells Ilya that once he can reach the top of the case and grab the papers, he’ll sign them but until then he’s stuck with him whether he likes it or not.
Ilya tries to maintain his facade but he cracks and laughs because Shane putting the papers on top of the trophy case is an asshole move, but it’s also funny as hell. Shane laughs as well and two giggle for a few seconds before Shane sits on Ilya’s lap. He grabs Ilya’s chin and forces him to look at him. “Talk to me please. Tell me what’s really wrong.” Shane might be delusional but he refuses to believe his husband actually wants a divorce.
“Don’t leave hockey.” Ilya explains how he heard Shane’s conversation with Coach Wiebe about how Shane was thinking about retiring to care for him. He didn’t want Shane to give up hockey, so he thought divorcing would mean Shane had no reason to give it up. Shane admits he’s worried about leaving Ilya alone, but they both agree to a trial run. Shane returns to hockey. When he’s on the road, Yuna and David help Ilya when needed. Ilya goes to home games to cheer Shane on. They get through the rest of season just fine and forget all about the divorce papers on the case.
Non Hockey Player Ilya hooks up with Hockey Player Shane in Boston. Shane isn’t out so Ilya pretends not to know who he is, even though Shane is Ilya’s favorite player, so he doesn’t worry. They exchange numbers and end up getting together every time Shane comes to Boston. Ilya really likes Shane and thinks Shane is into him too. One day, Shane is getting ready to leave Ilya’s place. He tells Ilya that he won’t be done working until late and if he can come back later to talk (Montreal isn’t flying out until morning). Ilya says of course and kisses Shane before he leaves. “Have a good game.” Ilya freezes. He knows he’s messed up but he can’t take the words back now. He scrambles to explain but Shane pulls him in for another kiss. “I know you know who I am. That’s actually what I wanted to talk about.” Shane explains that he saw the Hollander jersey at the back of Ilya’s closet when he let Shane go in there to get one of his shirts. He asks if Ilya is willing to be with him, in a serious relationship, even though he’s not out. Ilya agrees and the two date in secret until Shane feels comfortable enough to come out. Afterward, Shane reveals his relationship with Ilya and JJ finally understands why Shane vanished every time they were in Boston.
Ilya asks Shane to take him on a road trip, during the off season, to see the beauty of Canada because this is home now and he wants to see more. Shane gets all excited planning the trip and creating the itinerary. He’s going over the route from Ottawa to Halifax, the stops they’ll make, the things they can do and Ilya just nods. He is also making plans to fuck Shane in the back of his sensible car at every stop.
Post TLG Shane and Ilya have a huge fight, and Shane goes to the guest bedroom to sleep. He’s lying in bed, wide awake, when the door flies open and Ilya walks in. He silently climbs into bed, back to Shane. Shane turns to look at Ilya’s back but doesn’t say anything. He just gets out of bed with a huff and goes back to their room.

Shane kisses Ilya on the lips. “Ya tebya lyublyu.”
AU where Older!Shane used to babysit Younger!Ilya after Irina moved them to Canada. Ilya used to tell Shane that he was going to marry him when he grew up and even proposed to Shane and gave him a plastic ring. Shane never took it seriously because Ilya was a kid and kids say all kinds of things. Once Shane gets drafted by the Metros, Ilya only gets to see him on TV. Ilya gets into hockey and gets really good at it, but he purposely holds himself back as to not get drafted too high, so he falls to the Metros in the draft. He reconnects with Shane and Shane tells Ilya about his building and offers Ilya one of the apartments for cheap. Ilya accepts and Shane is there to help him move in. He calls him ‘Little Ilya’ like old times and Ilya says he’s not little anymore. Shane and Ilya are amazing together on the ice. Now that he’s been drafted, he finally plays to his full strength and everyone is wondering where this Ilya Rozanov came from and Ilya says it’s due to Shane’s mentorship. One night they’re hanging out at Shane’s place and Ilya is like “Now that I have the money, I’ll buy you a proper ring”. Shane is confused but Ilya reminds him about the childhood proposal and how Shane accepted. Shane tries to explain he only said yes because they were playing but Ilya just shushes Shane. “I’ve seen they way you look at me in the showers. I know you want me, and I still want to marry you my Shanya”
AU where the Hollanders are a crime family. They run Canada’s underground with an iron fist. They’ve got the politicians in their pockets and dirt on everyone so they don’t worry about going to jail. They’ve pretty much crushed the other crime families in Canada so they have minimal competition. They only have one weakness, Ilya. Shane loves Ilya more than anything else in the world. Yuna and David absolutely adore their son-in-law. That’s their baby and they’d do anything for him so when Ilya gets kidnapped by a young gang looking to make a name for themselves, all of Canada holds their breath because they know the Hollanders will turn the country upside down find him.
Meanwhile, Ilya isn’t worried at all because he knows his overprotective husband and in-laws are tracking him. He’s almost positive there’s a tracker in his wedding band, he still needs to ask Shane about that. Ilya tells the kidnappers that they need to let him go because his family is crazy and they’re going to get their whole families killed if they don’t let him go. The kidnappers just think Ilya is trying to get in their heads, but the doors are blown off the hinges and people pour in. The kidnappers are quickly subdued. Shane sees Ilya’s split lip and orders them all to be killed and he wants their families rounded up by the end of the day and dealt with. Ilya throws them a quick “I told you so” before Shane carries him out of the warehouse. When they get home, Ilya tries to ask Shane about the tracking device he clearly has on him but Shane just rides Ilya until he forgets the question he was asking.
Prowrestling AU where Shane is impeccable in the ring but his promos leave something to be desired, while Ilya has the charisma, looks, and promos but he’s not as strong in the ring. The promoter sees potential in both of them, so he decides to put them in a tag team with the long term booking being Ilya turning on Shane to launch them both as the top heel and face of the company, respectively. The two of them have amazing chemistry and play well off each other, both in ring and in promos. Shane and Ilya start being more affectionate as time goes on. It comes to a head when they’re attacked backstage, and Ilya cuts a promo talking about how he’s going to end the other tag team for “hurting the man he loves”. People start wondering if they’re actually fucking or if this is still just a storyline and Shane and Ilya are the greatest actors to ever grace a wrestling ring. It doesn’t help when they kiss after they win the tag team championships. The long term booking is thrown out because they’re making the company so much money. The promoter decides to ride this until the wheels fall off or until they request a break up. Shane and Ilya are together irl, but it’s more fun to let people speculate so they never confirm or deny the relationship. Half of the fandom is praising them for being real workers and not breaking kayfabe when they post pictures of them kissing on IG, and the other half of the fandom is like “this has nothing to do with kayfabe. They’re fucking IRL!”
In the books, Ilya always mentions how wet Shane gets and how his cock is dripping like a leaky facet which makes me think that Omega Shane would be a super soaker.
Post TLG AU where Hollanov is open to threesomes. Shane and Ilya hook up with a guy after a night out. It’s amazing and they mean to get the man’s number but they don’t realize they left his place without it until they get home. They also can’t remember his name, even though they were both just moaning it not that long ago, so they can’t find his social media. They just shrug and get off to the memories. Three months later, they’re in the locker room and Harris comes in, “So you all remember Becky left? Well, we have a new social media team member to fill the spot. Everyone say hi to Elijah.” Shane and Ilya’s jaws drop as they lock eyes with the man they hooked up with three months ago. Suddenly Shane is really interested in social media and creating things for the team. Ilya is pitching ideas to the social media team and requesting Elijah film them. Everyone is asking Elijah how he got Shane and Ilya to cooperate and Elijah is just like “Haha, I don’t know” because he can’t tell them he put Shane and Ilya through his mattress a couple months ago.
Ilya’s doctor warns him that antidepressants often decrease sex drive but after eight weeks of taking the meds, the opposite has happened. His sex drive has dramatically increased. He’s horny all the time, and he’s constantly thinking about fucking Shane. It’s pretty much the only thing he thinks about. It’s the off-season, and they’re at the cottage, so he has mostly uninterrupted access to Shane and can fuck him around the clock, but he knows he can’t go on like this. They were having dinner with Yuna and David the other night and he almost bent Shane over the dining room table while his in-laws where in the kitchen. Ilya was horrified when he got hard from Shane placing a piece of garlic bread on his plate, and had to lie about being too full to move from the table so he had time to will his erection away before his in-laws saw it. He has to figure this out before the season starts or he might bend Shane over and fuck him in front of everyone in the locker room. He goes back to the doctor and tells them his symptoms, and they switch him to another medicine. Ilya tells Shane about the medication switch and he swears he sees a brief flash of disappointment on Shane’s face.
Ilya has a stalker. The stalker has been with him for years, and he hasn’t told a soul. He isn’t sure why he hasn’t told anyone. Actually, that’s a lie. If Ilya was being honest, he hasn’t told anyone about the stalker because he likes the attention. He likes the texting, the late night conversations, being checked on, and cared about. It’s sad but the stalker is the most genuine connection he has.
‘Where are you going?’ The text messages lights up his screen.
“Out.” Ilya says. He still isn’t sure how the stalker got cameras and microphones in his home. He’s searched and can’t find them.
‘Another club? To pick up some girl?’
“I would not need to if you came out to play.” Ilya pockets his phone and heads out.
The club is a bust and he returns home alone. He only takes a few steps into his house when he world goes dark. He wakes up tied to his bed, blindfolded, naked. He starts to struggle against the binding but some shushes him.
“Don’t, you’ll hurt your wrist, my Ilya.” Ilya stops struggling because he knows that voice. It’s a voice that’s talked until he fell sleep, helped him through nightmares, and gotten him off more times than he can count.
“You did not have to do this.” Ilya lets out a moan when the stalker’s lubed hand wraps around his dick. Ilya would have gladly let the stalker have his way, no need for the binding and blindfold.
“It’s more fun this way.” The stalker answers and strokes Ilya until he’s hard, which doesn’t take long. Ilya feels the bed dip and soon the stalker is straddling him. “Let me give you what you need.” The stalker sinks down on to Ilya’s cock and Ilya lets out a loud moan as the man rides him. He feels so good, Ilya begs to be untied so he can touch him but the stalker won’t do it. He begs for the blindfold to be removed but the stalker ignores him. He just bounces, tells Ilya how good his cock feels and how it’s better than he ever imagined.
Ilya doesn’t have a sense of time. He’s not sure how long they fuck. All he knows is that it’s the best sex Ilya has ever had. He’s never felt this good, and he’s about to cum. He warns the stalker and the man begs Ilya to come inside him. Ilya is happy to oblige. As he cums, he feels the stalker’s own release hit his chest. The stalker takes a moment before getting off of Ilya and Ilya whines at the loss.
“So needy.” The stalker teased and then Ilya feels a prick at his neck.
“Wait!”
The stalker hushes him again. “Go to sleep. I’ll be back to get you when the season is over.”
When Ilya wakes, he’s all cleaned up and so is his house. There’s no trace of the stalker and he’s left to wait.
The day after the cup celebration parade, there’s a knock at his door. Ilya answers but he’s out cold before he knows what hit him. He wakes up in a home that’s not his. He walks through the home and stops when he sees the most beautiful man he’s ever laid eyes on. He’s reading the New Yorker, glasses hanging low on his nose. He must has noticed movement because he looks up and smiles at Ilya. “You’re awake. How do you feel?”
Ilya feels himself relax when he hears the voice of his stalker, which is the exact opposite of what he should do but Ilya doesn’t feel that he’s in danger. He knows he’s not in danger. The man takes off his glass, which disappoints Ilya, and gets up to move toward him. Once they’re standing face to face, Ilya can see the beautiful freckles doting his face and he can’t help but stare at his lips. So this was the man bouncing on his dick? God, he’s beautiful. “Where am I?”
“Canada. Ottawa to be specific. Welcome to my cottage.” This man smuggled him into another country while he was completely unconscious. This man had to be powerful or rich, or both. “Our cottage now, I guess.”
“And your name?” Ilya asked. “Or do you like being called stalker.” The man laughs and it’s such a pretty, perfect laugh. Ilya wants to hear it all the time.
“Shane.”
“Last name?”
“Hopefully, Rozanov one day.” Shane winked. “Don’t worry. I’ll get you back to Boston in time for the season, Ilya.”
Ilya feels a shiver go up his spine when Shane says his name and he isn’t so sure he wants to go back to Boston.
Omega Shane won’t share his heats with Alpha Ilya. Ilya understood why when they were just hooking up, but they’re in a committed relationship now. They’re not married or bonded yet, but he’s Shane’s alpha. He should be helping him through his heats. Instead, Shane is telling him about switching from his suppressants to regular birth control so he can have his heat. Shane is telling Ilya how his parents are going out of town so he’ll go to their house for a few days while Ilya stays at the cottage, but Ilya cuts in and tells Shane that he can help him. Shane looks like he’s considering it, but he quickly pushes that thought away. He declines and before he can give some lame excuse, Ilya storms out of the room.
Shane follows and watches as Ilya grabs his suitcase. Shane tries to stop him but Ilya says that if Shane doesn’t think he’s a good enough alpha to help him with his heat, then maybe he should just leave. Shane gets Ilya to stop packing so he can explain. Shane tells Ilya that his heats aren’t the typical soft omega heats. His are very intense and he can be kind of feral. He’s worried he might hurt Ilya, and Ilya thinks hurting him is fine as long as he gets Shane through his heat. After talking, Shane agrees to share his heat with Ilya. Shane tells Ilya that if he becomes too much, Ilya can leave and he won’t be mad. Ilya scoffs at the idea of leaving Shane while he’s in heat and says everything will be fine. Shane switches his meds and a few nights later, Ilya is jolted awake by the sound of ripping and tearing.
He quickly realizes Shane has ripped his underwear off. Before he can say anything, Shane roughly tugs at his dick and he quickly gets hard. Shane unceremoniously drops down on his cock and rides him. Shane is so wet and he looks so fucking good, pupils blown wide and hair sticking out crazily. He’s about to say something when Shane’s hand slaps down over his mouth. His other hand wraps around Ilya’s throat and squeezes.
“Take it.” Shane growls and Ilya is so turned on. He shuts up and lets Shane use him for his own pleasure. He tries to thrust up but Shane slaps him across the face, and Ilya would have come if he had less discipline. He lets Shane use him like a dildo until he feels it.
“Knot.” He knows Shane wants him to be quiet but he feels like he should warn Shane that he’s about to pop a knot. He isn’t sure if the heat has thrown him into a rut or if he’s just so turned on by the situation but whatever the case, he’s going to knot Shane if he doesn’t stop.
Shane doesn’t stop. He rides until Ilya comes and his knot locks them together. It pushes Shane over the edge and he comes hard, crawling and grabbing at Ilya’s chest. Once Shane regains his senses, he looks down at Ilya to see his scratched up chest, redness on his neck, and his palm print on Ilya’s cheek.
“Did I hit you? And choke you?” Ilya nods and Shane goes to apologize but Ilya stops him.
“It was so fucking hot. Oh my god, I love you so much Shane. Please do not keep heat from me. If you keep heat from me, I will die. I will be good alpha for you and be like dildo for you, just let me-.”
“Ok, ok.” Shane shushed him. “Didn’t know you were so pathetic.” He teased as he leaned down to kiss Ilya’s redden cheek. Why was he ever worried?
AU where Shane decides to come out shortly after Scott. His DMs are soon filled to the brim. He tells Ilya about all of the DMs and now everyone is wondering why Ilya suddenly has beef with half the league, while seemingly having none with his actual rival. Everyone thinks Ilya stops engaging in the rivalry rhetoric with Shane because he doesn’t want to seem homophobic. Later when Ilya comes out and they reveal their relationship, everyone looks back and realizes Ilya was actually just jealous and fucking up Shane’s potential suitors.
