Jackson Ramirez has always followed the rules-his family's, society's, everyone's but his own. Trapped in a life dictated by expectations, he buried his passion and silenced the voice that once made him feel alive. So when Kenzo Adachi walked into his class-blunt, intense, and always acting like he owned the room. Jackson couldn't help but feel . . . annoyed. Annoyed by his confidence. Annoyed by how he said whatever he wanted. Annoyed by how free he was. But Kenzo? He saw something else. He saw a bird trying to breathe through its cage. And Kenzo, the kind of man who lives by his own rules, was ready to go beyond the boundary-just to help Jackson learn how to fly.

Tres has always walked through life alone, carrying silent storms behind his steady gaze. His world was a fortress built on solitude, where trust was a luxury he could never afford. Every scar, every shadow, he bore by himself-because sometimes, the heaviest battles are fought in silence. But one summer, everything changes. He meets someone who cracks open the walls he's long held sacred, revealing that true strength is not the armor we wear, but the fragile light that seeps through the cracks. That vulnerability is not surrender, but the fire that forges resilience. That being broken is sometimes the only way to become whole. In the heat of that summer, Tres will discover a love raw and untamed-one that stirs the depths of his soul and awakens what's been hidden in the shadows. Because beneath every calm surface, beneath every guarded heart, there is always... something lies beneath.
