Yuno, a painter and delivery guy, lives his life like a dish served without toppings. No flavors, no attachments, just bare survival. Though selfless and determined to stand on his own, Yuno's solitude is a paradox: he pushes away help yet silently craves connection. But when Cid, a sexually frustrated swimmer, offers him financial support in exchange for an unconventional deal, Yuno is forced to reconsider the simple life he's chosen.

One punch, and the world tilted off its axis.

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.

Destiny's limits, yet choices remain. Started: 03/23/25 Status: Completed

Zane Castillo is the definition of high school royalty-handsome, charming, and a campus heartthrob with the world at his feet. But behind his perfect smile and cocky attitude lies a secret: Zane is a bully, and he's used to getting whatever he wants. His life is flawless, and no one dares to challenge his place at the top. That is, until Luna Garcia transfers to his school. Luna is nothing like Zane's usual victims. Soft-spoken, introverted, and struggling with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), Luna is an easy target for Zane's torment. He's an outcast, always alone, constantly picked on by his classmates-especially Zane, who finds pleasure in making Luna's life miserable. With his quiet demeanor and gentle heart, Luna can't fight back. He's the boy everyone ignores, the one who's always invisible, even though he comes from a wealthy family. His world is full of isolation, and Zane makes sure to remind him of it every day. But Luna's life takes an unexpected turn when his family's business forms a partnership with the Castillos. The solution to their financial problems? A forced marriage between Zane and Luna. Zane is furious, seeing it as a punishment-he's not just stuck with Luna in school anymore, he's stuck with him forever. The boy he once bullied is now his husband. And Zane can't stand it. As they are thrown into this forced marriage, Luna's silent strength and kindness begin to break through Zane's cold exterior. At first, Zane hates everything about Luna-his softness, his silence, and the way he can't seem to fight back. But as time goes on, Zane starts to question everything he's ever known about himself, his pride, and the boy he once tormented. Can Zane learn to love the boy he once bullied? Or will his arrogance and cruelty destroy the chance for happiness that Luna never thought he deserved?
