"What are you?" the older man questioned, his voice a chilling blend of authority and amusement, like a knife wrapped in silk. "Your wife," I replied softly, my tone laced with the submission he seemed to crave. "No," he murmured, his lips brushing mine, the words a dark caress that sent shivers through me. "You are my doll, milaya." He towered over me, his intimidating presence both suffocating and intoxicating. The nickname, spoken in that deep, accented voice, wrapped around me like a chain I couldn't help but love. "You are the only woman who is allowed to warm my bed at night," he said, his voice a dark melody, smooth but unnerving. "The only woman who's allowed to step into my office and bend over my desk, waiting for me to come home so I can fuck you." A cold, low chuckle rumbled from his chest, the sound as sinister as it was intoxicating, sending shivers down my spine. ♡ Dimitri Mikhailov, the russian mobster. His presence filled the room like a storm. He didn't have to move or speak to dominate the room. Broad-shouldered and imposing, his scarred face told a thousand stories that he'd never waste words on. He was my husband and I was his precious doll.

❝ They say the people that I came to care about, until today, will disband after a game ❞ The Generation of Miracles were considered one of the strongest junior high teams in the nation before splitting up to different high schools under an oath to determine the strongest out of them. Months prior to the separation, Momoi Satsuki assigned a second-year student to take position as the manager for when she graduates. This student is described as an unmotivated, underachiever who has orange hair and eyes with creepy narrow pupils like some type of reptile, named Rindou Kaeri. For a prestigious basketball team, she didn't fit in immediately as her unlikable personality was no help. She received a lot of guidance along the way from her seniors since the girl lacked physical skill and athletic experience. Her incapability was troublesome for the staff as she had a lot of training ahead of her. However, there are several things that physical strength cannot achieve, and Rindou has it figured out. Beneath her fragile build is the sole reason why people should be careful around the quiet ones.
