Shane Hollander and Ilya Rosanov: Two hockeyplayers- to the outside world known as rivals, in private- closeted lovers.

What We Hide After the cottage. After the truth. Before the world knows. A new hockey season begins, and Shane Hollander and Ilya Rozanov are finally together. Just not where anyone can see it. On the ice, they're still rivals. In interviews, they still trade sharp words and colder looks. Behind closed doors, they're learning how to love each other in the quiet spaces between games, flights, and long nights that don't always end with sleep. As the pressure of a new season builds, so do the things Ilya has spent years burying. The media watches closely. Old wounds resurface. Keeping their relationship secret starts to feel heavier than the truth itself. Set after episode six of Heated Rivalry, What We Hide is a slow-burn, post-canon story about love under scrutiny,

Covering their rivalry was easy. Falling between them was not.

Married life couldn't be better for Ilya Rozanov and his beautiful husband, Shane Hollander. They shared a home, a dog, and the very promised trophy room. They loved each other and couldn't be happier. Fans also loved them, husbands playing together? THE DREAM. Yet, still, as their first year of marriage passed by... they couldn't help but think something was missing. Someone was missing. They had so much love to give still. But it wouldn't be as easy as they thought.

HEATED RIVALRY - FAN SEASON 2 Winning the season was supposed to change everything. It didn't. The rivalry is quieter now, but the pressure is louder. The glances last longer. The rumors travel faster. And the world that once only cared about performance is starting to watch too closely. Season 2 follows what comes after the secret when love has to survive contracts, cameras, distance, and the fear of being seen. This isn't about falling in love anymore. It's about choosing each other when the cost is higher. A fanfiction continuation exploring: rivalry beyond the ice public pressure vs private devotion quiet obsession emotional tension and the dangerous question of what happens when winning isn't enough Not canon. Just heart.

It's been a while since Shane and Ilya have been together. They have now settled down in Toronto with their two children, Nikolai and Alyona. Their daughter Alyona (Yona) is a well-known figure skater with the Toronto Angels, while her brother Nikolai has followed in their dads footsteps and is a hockey player for the New Yorker Wolves Hockey Team. His coach is the famous Scott Hunter who used to be on Montreal with Shane. Scott is now married to Kip, their son Theodore (Teddy) is also a New Yorker Wolves hockey player and best friends with Nikolai. Ilya and Shane have had the cottage remodelled as a family vacation place, along with other rooms for guests. Nikolai takes this as an opportunity to invite Scott, Kip, and Teddy during the summer break. Yona sees Teddy again, but this time something clicks and things will change...forever *I own none of the orginal chracters this is a fanfiction*

Shane Hollander has always been easy to read. At Controlled Damage Studios, Montreal's most sought-after tattoo shop, he turns other people's stories into ink. Until Ilya Rozanov walks through the door asking for something permanent. One appointment should have been the end of it. Then they run into each other at the gym, and walking away stops being an option. Tension turns into something they call casual, simple, temporary no expectations. Lines blur. Because some connections leave a mark long before the ink does. And some choices become permanent whether you meant them to or not.
