Too Close to Hide by Jennfarag29
Heated Rivalry (TV), Game Changers | Heated Rivalry - All Media Types
2026-10-18
Shane is hiding something that could end his career. Ilya is the kind of person who doesn’t stop until he finds it. What starts as rivalry turns into fixation. Because something about Shane doesn’t make sense, his control, his scent, the way he reacts. And Ilya doesn’t like unsolved patterns. He likes breaking them open. Even if it breaks Shane with it. Not instinct. Not luck. Not being an alpha. Control. So when he watches Shane play, he sees it immediately, something precise, something careful, something just out of reach. Something hidden. And Ilya has never been good at leaving things alone.

Ilya knows with a certainty this is not a hit a player gets up from.
So why, then? Do his eyes watch as Shane’s limbs twitch to life, a wretched gasp wracking through his chest is visible even from under the padded jersey. A conflicting mix of relief and dread bubble up in Ilya as an elbow braces on the ice and Shane’s neck shifts to lift his head. The arm he’s not favouring is held at an angle that suggests he’s hurt. He is facing away, Ilya desperately wishes he could see his face.
-Shane gets hit badly on the ice and Ilya gets caught between his teeth in the aftermath. A feral hostage negotiation ensues (the league throws Ilya to the Shane wolf and he has to figure it out).
This has continued into a chaptered fic! Follow along for cottage shenanigans as Ilya has to navigate his relationship with a feral Hollander. Also Yuna and David are there. He misses Shane a lot and is just trying not to fuck it up in the meantime. Worst of all, his time with the Hollander family seems to be unravelling his own understanding of wolves and how packs can function.

six milestones, six perfect nests by hailstormtsunami - exchange works (hailstormtsunami)

It was his nest. “You did not have to do this,” Ilya told Shane when he led him to his room—the room with the king bed and the ensuite bathroom and the nice view that he’d needled Shane about only to tease him and try to rile him up. It was Shane’s nest that he hadn’t prepared prior to picking Ilya up from the airport. It was Shane’s nest that he’d been fixing and freshening up whilst Ilya was siting at the kitchen table. Because the cottage was Shane’s safe place, and so of course, he’d build a nest there. OR: Over the years, Shane builds or rebuilds or fixes up his nests whilst Ilya waits outside. This fic covers six of these times.

That Was Not Your Choice to Make Alone by lilypadquit

“I want to meet her.” he managed to say through the wave of emotion coursing through him. “No.” Shane said, as if there was no possibility Ilya would ever get to meet his daughter. “You don’t get to decide when I see my child.” Ilya said, trying desperately to keep his voice calm, not wanting to give Shane more reason to believe he was still the violent person he left seven years ago “Yes I do. I am not going to let my child be collateral in the war you’re in with your brother like I was.” “I am legit now. I promise. After you left I have spent the last seven years cleaning us up. We do nothing criminal. I have no connections to Alexei and Russia anymore. Just let me meet her.” “No. Not until you prove it to me. I will not let any part of that life affect her.” “Can you at least tell me her name” “Her name is Masha. Well it’s Mariya, but we all call her Masha.” Or Shane Hollander found out he was pregnant with Russian Mafia member Ilya Rozanov's child and ran away. Seven years later Ilya has broken off ties to his brother and found Shane and his daughter. He wants to meet her.

don't wanna keep you up by huacheesecake

Shane was craving control, craving submission. There was a multitude of things that he couldn’t change, things that he had to step away from. And it had been worth it, worth it to have Ilya in his bed every morning with their little bear sleeping in his crib. To be able to curl up in their nest to breastfeed, watching hockey highlights on their flat-screen television that Ilya had insisted on getting. Shane swallowed, lifting his chin as he pushed Ilya down, strong thighs bracketing his torso, “Hold onto something, Rozanov.” Ilya was on him a second, grabbing Shane around the hips, flipping him over until he was facing Ilya’s feet, bare ass in Ilya’s face. Shane gasped out, the sound collapsing into a whimper as Ilya slipped a finger between his slick folds, rubbing at the entrance of his cunt, “Looks like mommy is getting a little cocky, yes?” he murmured, “I think you will be the one who is holding on." Or Post-partum Shane finally gets what he wants (cock!)

The scent of Ilya’s Alpha was strong, strong as if– His eyes snap open. “Wait, why do you smell as if..? Are you taking your Rut suppressants?” Ilya captures Shane’s bottom lip with his own and says out between kisses. “I stopped taking them a month ago.” Shane pulled away. “What? Why?” Sighing, Ilya brushes a hand by Shane’s flank to palm his lower back while another one comes up to rub at the bottom of Shane’s lip where he had just been kissing. “We don’t need to be taking it anymore. Irina’s going to daycare now. We don’t need to keep fighting our natural instincts.” OR Shane and Ilya’s daughter’s first day of daycare. They’re finally alone in the house again for the first time in a year, coincidentally, it’s also Shane’s first time going into heat in a year, but it’s taking a bit of trial and error to get back into their sex life

His ears roared with static, his brain stuck on one gnawing, clawing question: Why did Hollander didn't tell him that he's going to be a father? The answer was obvious—because Shane Hollander didn’t need him, never had. The realization burned like cheap vodka in his throat, bitter and suffocating. Some alpha reporter with slicked-back hair and a smirk dripping condescension leaned forward, microphone poised like a weapon. "Shane, what happened to all that talk about never bending for an alpha? Seems like someone finally put you on your back." "And how are you so sure I'm the one who bent?" Hollander's voice cut through the noise like a blade, smooth and lethal. The room fell silent instantly. Hollander arched one eyebrow, lips curling in a smile so cold it could freeze hell over. "Not that it's your business, but for the record—it was me who rode my sperm donor’s dick to get myself pregnant." Ilya froze. Sperm donor? The unfamiliar English phrase buzzed in his skull like a trapped wasp. Behind him, Connors snorted into his protein shake. "Oh Jesus fucking Christ," he muttered, wiping his mouth. "He just called his baby daddy a walking ATM for cum."

The first time they’d done this, in Ilya’s bed, Shane had been mystified at Rozanov’s insistence that he not enter the nest without Shane’s permission. Now, Shane feels something akin to smugness flexing its claws in his chest. A primal satisfaction at the rightness that he is the one with the power - at present, if not for much longer - alpha just outside the nest and at his mercy. Like Shane will only yield for someone who has earned it. He can draw out Ilya’s suffering just a little longer, make him earn it. Shane rakes his gaze over the delicious chest and bicep muscles bunching above the edge of the nest. “Waiting for something, Rozanov?” “Are you going to let me into your nest, omega?” His pronunciation of the endearment is more Russian than English, accent thickening around the syllables. “Depends. You gonna give me your knot?” “Hm, does not sound like begging yet to me.” Some months after Shane recovers from rejection sickness in Ilya's bed, they share their heat/rut together at the cottage, both clinging to the delusion it's still casual.

Bridgeford is a small, quiet town. Too dull to hold someone like Ilya, a restless young alpha always chasing something sharper, faster, louder. Too suffocating for Shane, an omega who’s spent too long under watchful eyes, tired of being seen as a social case just because he's an omega.
One last summer. That's all they both have to live through before they're both off to the big city. That was the plan.
Until fate pulls a few strings, and suddenly, two complete strangers feel drawn to each other in all the wrong ways.

“I-” David frowned, “I had a bit of a hard time, after Shane was born. He was born early, and he was so small. I was barely sleeping, staying up to feed him. Yuna felt guilty, I think, being an alpha. You know, Yuna and I, we couldn’t have another child. But you already know that. It took a while for us to uhh-- rekindle the romance” David cringed at his own wording, watching Ilya's wide-eyed expression. David forced a smile, “What helped me was- well”, David shrugged, looking a little embarrassed, “When Yuna started to court me again. She would do small things for me, buy me some new clothes, put on music that I liked- that one might not work for Shane. Rearrange our nest, buy new swaddles for Shane.” Or Ilya courts Shane after giving birth to their pup. Shane squirts.

“You can cry when I knot you though, because it will be that good.” Ilya smirks, grinding against him with purpose. Shane groans, keening his neck into the pillow at the mere thought of it. “You’d do that? For me?” A deep hum reverberates between them. “I’d do a lot of things for you, Hollander.” — aka Shane gets his heat early and someone refuses to stay away
