    Or: the horrifying realization that Ilya Rozanov might be in love with his best friend.

    Summary

    Shane gets in the car and slams the door shut.

    “What was that?” his dad asks, voice slightly worried.

    “Nothing,” Shane says unconvincingly, looking down at his hands, tearing at the skin around his fingernails.

    “Didn’t look like nothing, bud. It’s unlike you not to say bye to your friend like that. Or slam the door.”

    “Ilya Rozanov is not my friend, Dad.”

    ***

    Shane Hollander thinks he's ready for 8th grade. For the most part, he is.
    Enter: Ilya Rozanov.
    Shane is not ready for the way his life is about to change.

    Summary

    “Ilya Rozanov,” Shane repeats slowly, letting himself taste the words. He grins. “Wow. You’re, like, a really good player. How come you’re in Canada for summer camp? Is that weird to ask? Sorry if that’s weird. I just meant-”

    Shane is cut off by a hand on his mouth. He flushes.

    “Too fast,” Ilya says. “My English… not good.”

    “Sorry,” Shane mumbles into Ilya’s hand. Ilya grins and shakes his head, curls dancing, as he pulls his hand away.

    “Is okay. Slow words. Okay?”

    This year marks thirteen year Shane Hollander's third summer at Coach Marakov's elite hockey training camp. In attendance for the first time: Ilya Rozanov, visiting from Russia. Shane isn't the most sociable, and Ilya's English isn't the greatest, yet the unlikely duo soon become the best of friends.

    It's just one summer, but it makes a world of difference.

    Summary

    Shane has learned that Rozanov played in the KHL up until signing with the Centaurs. His departure from his previous team seemed to end on anything but friendly terms. He has a reputation. Trouble always seems to find him. Or maybe he chases it. There’s stories about fights in the locker room, authority issues, and he’s apparently a notorious party boy, a womanizer, some new omega on his arm in every photo online.

    (Yes, Shane has checked).

    He’s all the kinds of alpha that Shane has rolled his eyes at all his life.

    And Shane hates the way he blushes under the alpha’s attention.

     

    Or: Shane loves hockey, but was never allowed to go pro due to regulations preventing omegas from playing professional hockey. Instead, he works as a nutritionist for the Ottawa Centaurs. Ilya is a recent transfer to the team, and takes an immediate liking to Shane. Having built walls around himself and his designation, will Shane be able to open up to him and let the alpha in?
