Bloodbound Desires (Bakugou x Marinette)
22 parts Complete MatureKatsuki Bakugou had always kept his true nature hidden. With ash-blonde, spiky hair and sharp crimson eyes, he blended in easily. He had long mastered his control, never needing to give in to dangerous urges.
But when Marinette Dupain-Cheng entered his life, everything changed. Her midnight hair and bright blue eyes caught his attention, but it was her presence that truly unsettled him. Something about her drew him in, making it harder to maintain the control he'd worked so hard to perfect.
Marinette, unaware of the effect she had on him, welcomed him into her life. She mistook his intense behavior for friendship, and soon they grew closer. Katsuki found himself enjoying her company more than he'd expected. He would occasionally act on his impulses, but always in a subtle way, careful not to reveal too much.
Then came the day someone hurt Marinette. Seeing her in pain stirred something deep within him. He could no longer hold back. In that moment, Katsuki's true nature surfaced, and he fiercely defended her, realizing just how much she meant to him.
From that day forward, he made a promise to himself: to protect Marinette, no matter the cost.
