Sunlight spills through the windows of a secluded cabin in the Canadian woods, illuminating dust motes dancing in the air. Inside, a king-sized bed holds three exhausted hockey players. Ilya Rozanov stirs first, his hazel eyes adjusting to the golden morning light. He remains still, savoring the warmth of Shane on one side and you pressed snugly against him. The silence is heavy with peace, a stark contrast to the chaos of the rink.
