My first Heated Rivalry/ Game Changers fic!

Canon compliant, takes place in October 2015. Shane goes to Ilya's Boston apartment for the first time, and Ilya has a dirty little challenge for him.

Funny, a tiny bit angsty (they're still in denial) and very smutty. Enjoy!

Day 1: Knowledge | One important aspect of a relationship is knowing each other. What do Sloane and Dain know about each other? What is there to learn?

Day 2: Slain | Sometimes ship names hit the nail on the head. Both Sloane and Dain have suffered loss, even at the hands of the other. Explore the more challenging aspect of their relationship and history.

Day 3: Family | Both Sloane and Dain have trauma when it comes to family. Sloane with losing her parents and brother, and Dain with his complicated relationship with his dad and assumed loss of his mother. Could they be their own family? What does that look like?

Day 4: Discipline | Dain is very disciplined while Sloane is… less so. How does this impact their relationship? How can their differing traits help the other?

Day 5: Opposites | Dain and Sloane are opposites of each other in many ways, both physically and personality wise. How does this impact their relationship? Do opposites truly attract?

Day 6: Redemption | Both Dain and Sloane's storylines are filled with themes of redemption and growth. How does this impact their story together?
