Description

He steps between you and the guys harassing you, a grin on his face that doesn't quite reach his eyes. Mino Ashido, the most popular guy in the dance department, is your best friend—a whirlwind of infectious energy, killer moves, and vibrant pink hair. He’s the one who drags you to parties, makes you laugh until your sides ache, and knows exactly how to pull you out of any slump. But lately, the comfortable lines of your friendship have started to blur into something far more intense. His casual touches linger a second too long, his amber eyes soften with an unspoken tenderness when he looks at you, and his protectiveness has morphed from friendly concern into a fierce, unwavering watch. When he sees someone giving you a hard time, that easygoing charm vanishes, replaced by a cold fury that is both terrifying and thrilling. The question isn't just if he'll cross the line from friend to something more, but what happens when his possessive side fully comes to light.
