Bound By Shadows

Chapter 4: Melting Kisses TW: Sexual Scenes

AN: Hey guysss, I didn't know it was that hard to write such a sinful scene so I'm sorry if its like...cringy. so I'll mark where the KAKA starts so you can stop reading and still be caught up to date with the book if you aren't interested in reading that sort of stuff. Other than that, please enjoy!!

Blue stood outside the holding cells, her breath slow and measured as she tried to calm the simmering anger still coursing through her veins from her confrontation with Red. Her brother's mad nonchalant grated at her nerves, and she needed something-anything-to take her mind off him. She glanced towards Kazuyaki's cell, her eyes narrowing slightly looking for solace; she didn't need comfort. But maybe... just maybe talking to the prisoner would ease her frustration. With a sigh, she straightened her posture and unlocked the door. Her movements were calculated, graceful, as she stepped inside. Kazuyaki was sitting on the oversized dog bed, his back straightened as she entered, his eyes immediately darting to her with a mix of wariness and curiosity.

Blue's mask reflected in the dim light of the cell as she tilted her head slightly, studying the creature. She wasn't entirely sure why she had come here-she never indulged in conversations with pets. But tonight felt different. Her brother's infuriating attitude had wound her too tightly, and she needed a distraction.

Kazuyaki's breath hitched as she approached, though his expression remained half, guarded. His golden eyes followed her every step, taking in the way she carried herself, her presence filling the small cage with authority. But it wasn't fear that stirred in his chest. He didn't know what it was.or maybe it was the sharpness of her gaze, softened only slightly by an unspoken need for relief from whatever was troubling her.

She stopped a few feet away from him, crossing her arms.

"Kazuyaki Yagasaki," she said, her voice cutting through the silence like a blade. "I need a distraction."

He raised an eyebrow, caught off guard by her bluntness.

"And you thought I'd be a good candidate?" His tone was careful, respectful though there was a hint of humor beneath it.

Blue's lips twitched behind the mask, almost a smile but not quite.

"I figured you'd be better company than my dear brother."

Kazuyaki leaned back slightly, sensing her frustration. He'd never seen this side of her before-so... human. The deadly, cold exterior was still there, of course, but her words were different tonight. She wasn't threatening him, wasn't looking at him like he was prey to be toyed with. It was unsettling, yet oddly intriguing.

"Why me?" He asked quietly in a shaky, quiet voice.

She paused for a moment, her fingers absentmindedly tracing the edge of her mask. Then, as if making a sudden decision, she reached up and removed it, revealing her face to him for the first time. Kazuyaki's breath caught in his throat as his face began to heat up. Her face was a striking contrast to her deadly persona she has built-a cold beauty with sharp, elegant features framed by her long white hair. Her ice-blue eyes were intense, almost hypnotic.

Blue met his gaze evenly, her eyes narrowing slightly.

"You're not as pathetic as I thought," she said, her tone still sharp, but lacking the venom it usually heals. "You didn't fall apart like most do in your situation."

He chuckled softly, though the sound was dry.

"Not yet, anyway."

She let out a hum of acknowledgment, her eyes flickering over him, taking in the way he sat, still cautious, but more relaxed now than before. There was a moment of silence between them, the air thick with something neither of them could define. Kazuyaki's heart raced, but he held her gaze. There was something different about her tonight. Something softer, though it was barely visible beneath the layers of her usual harsh demeanor.
