    Summary

    Eight years of Ilya Rozanov taking whatever he wants.

    Eight years of Shane letting him.

    The fights. The hotels. The way Ilya looks at him across the ice like Shane is the only thing in the world worth ruining.

    Some people call it hate. Shane knows better.

    (He also knows he's pregnant. Ilya doesn't. Not yet.)

    Summary

    “Are you sure it is even mine?”
    Hollander seemed genuinely hurt by the suggestion, his big dark eyes fixed on the tiled flooring at Ilya’s feet. For a moment, he looked like he was about to cry again. “It doesn’t matter if it’s yours... Which it is, by the way. You fucking asshole.” He twitched. “But it’s not like we’re together. Whatever choice I make, I wouldn’t ask anything of you.”
    “Good.” Ilya said coldly. He kind of felt like he was going to cry too. He wasn’t quite sure why. “I’m glad you know this.”
    “Fine.”
    “Fine.”

    Summary

    The reality of her situation was slowly ripping Sophie apart.

    The reality of what she had done- how she had damned her own child to the same life that she had suffered oh so greatly from. The life of being a bastard to a nobleman.

    As she slowly lay the basket on the ground, Sophie let out a small sob and pressed her most precious baby against her chest- one last time.

    “Forgive me, dearest. But your father is a kind man, he will care for you…” Sophie whispered in despair as she kissed the head of her child.

    Without much ado, she placed the bebe in the cozy basket, laid atop the blankets a letter and finally knocked on the door, before disappearing in the shadows of the night.

    Whilst being haunted by silent sobs, Sophie could only pray that her baby would have a kinder life than she had.
    That Benedict Bridgerton was more honourable than her own father.

    -
    After a steamy encounter at the lake, history repeats itself as Sophie experiences the same fate as her late mother did. Having a bastard.
    After finding the child, Benedict searches for Sophie- discovering parts of her veiled history in the process.

    Summary

    Shane Hollander always had a strategy. He had a strategy for winning the Cup, a strategy for managing the press, and a strategy for keeping his relationship with his rival-turned-boyfriend, Ilya Rozanov, strictly in the dark. He really was good at managing it all… Right up until the moment a medical impossibility turned into a positive pregnancy test, and the only man Shane ever loved asked him to do the one thing he couldn’t: tell the truth.

    Five years post-breakup, Shane is technically winning. He has the trophies, the privacy, and their brilliant daughter, Airi. And he is perfectly co-parenting with his ex, Ilya Rozanov. The rules are simple: minimal contact, polite text messages about their daughter, and absolutely no acknowledging about their past.

    Until Yuna Hollander decides to intervene. Suddenly, the ocean Shane put between them is gone. Shane’s new strategy is simple: survive seven days with Ilya without falling apart.

    Summary

    Shane Hollander is 18 years old and a beta when he first competes at World Juniors in Saskatchewan. Shane's only expectation is to bring home gold. Instead, Shane unexpectedly presents as an omega during the gold medal game against Russia. Luckily, his rival Ilya Rozanov is there to help Shane, which is a good thing because Shane knows nothing about being an omega. Rozanov kindly offers to extend his stay to help Shane through his first heat.

    Only months later, Shane discovers that he came home with a whole lot more than a silver medal and an unwanted new designation. Somehow he's carrying the baby of a man who lives on the other side of the world. A man who never offered his phone number and doesn't have any social media to speak of.

    Somehow Shane is going to have to find a way to explain why he's suddenly pulling out of the 2009 draft, come to terms with giving up hockey and caring for a baby completely alone. All while desperately wishing he could share the joys of first smiles and the stress of sleepless nights with the alpha he's never quite been able to forget.

    Or

    Shane gets pregnant the first time they meet, but doesn't find out until Ilya is back in Russia with no way to contact him.
