Summary
Shane Hollander is the sole Omega within the NHL. He’s been running from his own instincts since the moment he first presented and lives his life akin to that of a Beta; scentless, never nesting, and without a heat cycle. Any failure to conform to these ideals would result in being outcast from his peers and by the league altogether.
Ilya is the only Alpha in ice hockey that plays without the use of suppressants. He lives his life purely driven by instinct, running from the ghosts of those attempting to control him. Unbeknownst to Shane, he’s also the only person that can smell the Omega, and the scent is steadily driving the Alpha insane.

Summary
"So this is your plan?" Ilya looked up, his voice dripping with contempt. "You want to buy me a dog so I stop biting?"
Or: Shane expects to be a punching bag for a cruel alpha. Poor omega has no idea that he's actually about to be loved.

Summary
In a world where omegas have few rights and unmated alphas in professional hockey are required by league regulations to be paired with a state cleared omega by age 26, Ilya Rozanov, a Russian alpha with a fiery temper and a disciplinary record, is handed a stack of twelve files and told to pick his omega. To everyone's surprise, he picks the one nobody else would touch: Shane Hollander, twenty-three, a former Montreal Metros defenseman who lied his way through two years of pro hockey on suppressants and forged paperwork before he was outed during an uncontrolled heat. Three years in a state center have left him hollowed out, terrified, and rated a 5 on a temperament scale. Shane has spent those three years bracing for the worst.

Summary
The room moves around him, nurses in and out to check on his progress and remove his IV. A new doctor comes in with discharge papers, instructions about PT that Hollander studiously writes down. Ilya lets himself be moved and nods when it seems appropriate. But he hears none of it. The blood rushes through his ears and one word echoes in his chest over and over again. Husband.
In 2025, Ilya suffers a hit on the ice and wakes up in the hospital. Shane Hollander is there, holding his hand. But the last thing Ilya remembers is a tuna melt (aaaaaaand Rose Landry).

Summary
Rose volunteers for a nonprofit that rescues sex-trafficked omegas, and Shane thinks it's a great cause. He even attends their fundraising galas.
Then, one night, Rose calls to ask for a favor: She wants Shane to let a recently-rescued male omega live with him. In his apartment.
His name is Ilya, Rose explains, and the thing is, despite omega hormone levels, he acts and smells just like an alpha. He can't keep staying in an omega group home because he's scaring the other omegas and endangering the staff.
But he could live with Shane, Rose insists. "You're a big strong alpha hockey player, so he can't intimidate you physically. But also he needs to feel safe, which he can with you, because you're not like other alphas." She pauses. "You know?"
By which she means Shane has never had a full rut, his scent glands barely work, he can't form a knot, and he has no interest in sticking his dick in anyone. Which, whatever. It's fine.
But if being a failure as an alpha means he can help this omega, Ilya, who's apparently as much of a biological anomaly as Shane is…
Shane says yes.
And maybe it's a stupid decision. But he knows that it's also the right one.
