Kim Na-bi, a fiercely determined young snowboarder, has just achieved her goal of joining Japan's national snowboard team.
While training is rigorous, Na-bi finds herself unexpectedly crossing paths with another elite athlete-Yuki Ishikawa, the star player of Japan's national volleyball team. Their paths intertwine when Na-bi's coach, an old friend of the volleyball team's coach, arranges for the snowboarders to attend one of Japan's volleyball matches. Though their worlds are different, there's something magnetic about their meeting-a blend of competitive spirit, mutual respect, and a hint of something more.
This story is not a simple love story, but a journey of self-discovery, resilience, and the courage it takes to truly embrace life.

Secret Cheers and Hidden Love
The world only saw Yuki Ishikawa as the volleyball star-the talented, stoic, and focused player who dominated the court. Every spike, every block, every point he earned became a headline. Fans adored him, teammates respected him, and his career was on an unstoppable trajectory. But what the world didn't know was the secret that Yuki guarded so closely. Behind his composed exterior, behind the public persona of a professional athlete, there was someone who held his heart-a girl hidden from the world, known only to him. Her name was Hikaru. They met by chance, in a whirlwind of serendipity that neither of them could have predicted. And from the moment they clicked, they became inseparable. But their relationship wasn't for public eyes. Hikaru insisted on keeping it a secret. She didn't want the spotlight, the fame, or the fan frenzy that came with being linked to Yuki. She wanted to love him in quiet moments, away from the cameras and the scrutiny of the world. So, they hid it. Yuki would walk off the court, surrounded by fans and reporters, while Hikaru stood in the background, cheering as any other fan would. She became the ultimate supporter, silently sharing in his victories and comforting him in his defeats. But their secret wasn't just about protecting themselves-it was about protecting their love. In a world where everything was scrutinized, analyzed, and dissected, Hikaru and Yuki found solace in their hidden moments, in the quiet exchanges and stolen glances that no one else could see. Yet, secrets don't stay hidden forever. As the world of fame, fandoms, and expectations began to close in, Yuki knew that sooner or later, their carefully constructed bubble would burst. The question wasn't if, but when. And when it did, would their love be strong enough to withstand the storm? Only time would tell.Complete

Spikes and Scalpels
Yuki Ishikawa is a volleyball genius, the stoic captain of the Japanese Men's Volleyball Team and the star outside hitter for Allianz Milano. Disciplined, strategic, and relentlessly focused, Yuki has only one goal: to lead his teams to victory in both the Italian league and the upcoming Olympics. But when a persistent shoulder injury threatens to derail everything he's worked for, the club forces him into a decision he doesn't want to make, undergo rehab treatment under the care of a new team specialist, Alex Lacroix. Alexandra Louise Lacroix Crèvecœur is not your average sports physician. A prodigy French orthopedic surgeon with a sharp mind, sharper tongue, and a royal name she refuses to use. Once revered at Grande Ospedale Metropolitano Niguarda, Italy's top hospital, Alex was cast out for saving a life the wrong way, defying protocol to operate on a VIP patient in an emergency situation. Now banished to a glorified rehab role, far from the operating rooms where she truly belongs, with Allianz Milano, she considers it the lowest point in her career. Until she meets Yuki. He's all control. She's all instinct. He hides pain behind discipline. She hides heartbreak behind defiance. What begins as clashing egos soon gives way to an undeniable connection, one that neither ambition nor legacy can contain. But as the Olympics approach and the spotlight grows, so do the secrets they've buried. When the world demands the best of them both, will love be a luxury they can't afford?
