Two Kings (Bakugou Katsuki x Male! Reader)

TWO KINGS
A Bakugou Katsuki x Male! Reader Story

Six years ago, (Y/N) walked away from Japan with nothing but scars-some visible, some buried deep. He built a life for himself in New York, carved out success with his own two hands, and made damn sure no one could ever hurt him again.

Now? He's back.

As one of the most sought-after photographers in the industry, (Y/N) is here for work, not nostalgia. Not ghosts of the past. And definitely not Bakugou Katsuki-the boy who once shattered him, the pro hero who now stands in front of his lens, looking at him like he's something worth chasing.

But (Y/N) knows better.

Because he's not that weak kid anymore. And Bakugou? He doesn't get to rewrite history.

Except... Bakugou isn't backing down.

And when two kings stand on the same battlefield-one refusing to let go, the other refusing to give in-there can only be one outcome.

Checkmate.

(A slow-burn, enemies-to-lovers, second-chance romance. Heavy angst, tension, and unresolved feelings. Two men. Two pasts. One hell of a fight.)
