    Summary

    When a human head of state publicly insults the ancient Vampire King, the price of peace is a political union. Shane Hollander, high school teacher and assistant hockey coach, is one of the only humans in the world with a rare bloodline. He’s given an impossible choice: become a Tribute Consort to vampire Crown Prince Ilya, or watch the human race burn.

    Their union is meant to be a symbolic gesture to prevent war. Shane tells himself he can survive the vampire court's deadly politics, the centuries-old intrigue, and the weight of being a living apology for his species' mistakes.

    What he doesn't expect is the way Ilya looks at him when no one else is watching.

    When a secret society abducts Shane to drain and auction his rare blood to the highest bidder, the carefully constructed facade shatters. The vampire Crown Prince the world fears isn't cold at all, he's been holding something far more dangerous in check. And what Ilya is willing to destroy to reclaim his Consort will reshape the balance of power between their worlds.

    An interesting take on a modern vampire culture. Adding other supernaturals to the world makes it feel more fleshed out, but also not. You feel there is a long history, but don’t really get a full feeling for it. The greatest strength of the story is how Shane feels fully in character and Ilya does for the most part. Liberties must be taken when you make someone a 600 year old vampire. The biggest flaw is a general lack of understanding of the supernatural creatures. I know more about the cultures than I do their physical appearance and abilities. Also Svetlana being sidelined for an OC. I am a sucker for a kidnapping fic and I appreciate the detail that went into not only the kidnapping itself, but the torture Shane goes through. Of course it all leads to some wonderful comfort scenes.

    Summary

    He saw the eyes first. Two glowing spheres of turquoise blinked an arm's length away. Something like a wolf stood before him—if wolves were the size of moose with thick pelts of sandy fur. The beast favored its hind legs more, resting the majority of its weight onto them. It was still as a statue, its attention fixed solely on him.

    In the winter of 1923, Shane Hollander is unknowingly courted by a werewolf.

    I do love a good werewolf courting fic and this one was very good. Even though we have no feral behavior :(. Shane reads very in character and so does Ilya. Ok maybe a little off since Ilya doesn’t regularly tease Shane, but this is slightly different Ilya. Shane being a mountain doctor tracks. Physical and mental in equal parts. I love that the werewolves are not just big wolves. Always a good thing. Would love to see more about pack life and dynamics in this world. To see where they all end up, but this story stands alone well. Enough details to build the world, but leaves me wanting more. Oh and the sex scenes are hot.

    Summary

    “Does the Dominus enjoy serving a slave?” Ilya murmured.

    Shane looked up at him through dark lashes. His mouth was a hairsbreadth away from Ilya’s cock, and Ilya could see the exact moment the last of his composure burned out, shedding, the way a snake left its old skin behind, eyes bright and body underneath already new—

    —and instead of answering, Shane licked a stripe up the underside of his shaft, root to tip.

    The law calls Ilya a slave. The mob of Rome calls him their lion, their Gladiator. Senator’s son Shane calls him to his bed.

    Now Shane wants to call him free, but that means owning him first.

    Beautiful story. A lot of emphasis on the real power dynamics in a gladiatorial slave and senator relationship, but romanticizes it just enough for the story to work. Very detail oriented. Maybe a little too much as it throws so much Politics at you it takes you a bit out of the fantasy of it all. If it had been spread out a bit more, if there was a bit more than this maybe 12 hrs of time it would work. As is throwing a lot of very interesting historical facts during a sex scene kinda takes me out of it. As it is still a wonderful little snapshot into a different time and place for Shane and Ilya. I do love how much time and care Shane has put into his relationship with Ilya. He has that luxury as it shows that he is making use of it. Wielding it like a weapon to save his love. Shane is still very much Shane. Ilya, given his situation, is just trying to survive and taking comfort where he can. Not letting himself do more than fantasize for moments. Not daring to dream. A survivor through and through.

    Summary

    The queer NHL players (begrudgingly) unite via group chats in the face of social media scandals.

    These stories take place on a (slightly loose) chronological timeline and make the most sense when read in order. However, they're all independent stories/scandals and can be read as standalones.

    All stories take place post TLG and include spoilers for the books.

    This series had me cackling. The author truly has a gift with comedy. Just enough real emotion and drama for the levity to balance it out perfectly. Everyone is so in character that it never feels off. Even when something slightly ooc happens there’s enough context to make it work. And there are a lot of characters to keep track of. Truly brilliant 81/10.

    Absolutely adorable AU from Yuna’s perspective. Watching her melt for Ilya’s love of her son is so sweet. Things happen differently, but mostly the same. Reading her momager Ilya is equal parts hilarious and sweet.
