    Summary

    "Papa just needs to give Daddy a bandaid. He has a small ouchie."

    "Ouchie?"

    "Just a little, itty bitty one." Or maybe his brain was hemorrhaging, but Ilya tried hard to shove that thought down.

    Mila frowned. "I wanna give Daddy a bandaid."

    "This is a special bandaid only Papa can give," Ilya said, thinking rapidly and coming up with very little. "You can give him a special Mila-only bandaid when we see him later. Okay?"

    Mila nodded slowly. She swallowed her fruit snacks and looked at Ilya in the mirror. "You have to ‘member to kiss his ouchie, Papa."

    Ilya reached his hand back between the seats and held it there until her small fingers wrapped around his.

    "I will kiss Daddy's ouchie."

    Or,

    Shane gets injured during practice. It is, to put mildly, a lot for his very attached husband and children to handle.

    Summary

    “I’ve never spent my rut with anyone else, either.”

    Shane gasped, looking at him with mixture of shock and awe. There was a glistening light covering those captivating brown eyes, as if he couldn’t believe what he was hearing.

    “Ilya, what—”

     

    a cottage, new beginnings, and (soul)mates

    Summary

    Back in his apartment, post-game haze thick, heat triggered early by a certain alpha, Shane does something he’s never done. He opens the league app, finds the anonymous heat assistance sign-up sheet, and posts.

    Emergency heat. Unbonded omega. One night only. No claiming. No media. Discretion required. Address in DM.

    He hits submit before he can overthink it.

    Summary

    Contrasting with the clench of his jaw, the rigid line of shoulders, the dark scrunch of anger on his face, when Ilya brings his hand up to cup Shane’s cheek, thumb very lightly brushing against his injured bottom lip, the touch is as gentle as ever.

    "Who did this to you?”

    Shane swallows, heart soaring painfully at the touch. He was convinced he’d never warm up, the chill of tonight just too strong especially with how poorly he’d dressed himself. But the press of Ilya’s palm against his skin has his insides flaring to life. His own hands tremble uselessly in his lap, lips unconsciously protruding into a small pout as he leans just a fraction into the contact.
    ________________

    Or, no matter how much Shane tries to convince himself they’re no good for each other, he and Ilya are the only ones who truly know how to handle one another.
    They bring out the best and the worst in each other, at the same damned time.

    Summary

    Shane's eyes burned. "What if I hadn't noticed?"

    "But you did."

    "But what if I hadn't?"

    Ilya pulled Shane against his chest, wrapping his arms around him. "You would have. Because you are Shane Hollander. When Shane Hollander has goal—like goal to keep our baby safe—nothing gets past him." He pressed a kiss to Shane's temple. "Is blessing and curse, yes? But mostly blessing."

    Or,

    3 times Shane's hypervigilance caught something wrong with their kids before anyone else did, and 1 time Ilya had to confiscate his laptop.
