Collared In Crimson [EN]
Rurihito never imagined his life would change so drastically overnight. The son of a debt-ridden and absent man, he was ripped from his quiet routine and thrown at the feet of Himeko Hanamura-an imposing, cold-blooded alpha and the leader of a powerful Yakuza faction. With no options left, Ruri accepts a contract of submission to pay off a debt that was never his, becoming the property of a woman who radiates danger and absolute control. But Himeko is more than just a ruthless boss-she watches him with a gaze that is both possessive and intrigued, testing his limits and pushing him into a world where he has no voice yet must learn to survive. What begins as a forced agreement soon turns into a battle of wills, where Ruri fights to hold onto his identity while becoming increasingly entangled in Himeko's overwhelming presence. In the underworld of crime and betrayal, where alliances are fragile and violence is law, Ruri and Himeko discover that their connection runs deeper than the contract they signed. But how thin is the line between desire and obsession? And when enemies close in, how far will Himeko go to keep Ruri by her side? Between dominance and surrender, love and power, they walk a dangerous path where the greatest risk isn't losing their freedom-but losing each other. --- Note: English is not my first language, so I appreciate your patience with any errors. I'm continuously learning and striving to improve. --- !Content Warning: One of the protagonists was born with a biological variation inspired by the concept of intersexuality, developed exclusively for the narrative's worldbuilding, which grants them a functional reproductive system aligned with their omega classification. This condition does not represent any real medical diagnosis and is treated naturally within the story, without being problematized by the characters or the plot. !This is the English version. The original story in Portuguese is also available on my profile.Complete
