Shadow's and Sunlight (Marinette x Bakugou)

In the opulent yet shadowy world of the Bakugou Mafia, Marinette Dupain-Cheng grew up as an innocent ray of sunshine, blissfully unaware of the darkness surrounding her. The daughter of the family's pastry chefs, Marinette lived within the walls of the imposing mansion, where danger and power collided daily.

Katsuki Bakugou, the sharp-tongued and fiercely protective heir, became her anchor. From childhood, his icy demeanor never deterred Marinette's warmth, their bond deepened by his mother's fondness for her. Despite his harsh words and cold exterior, Katsuki shielded Marinette from the cruel realities of their world, staking his claim on her in ways she never fully understood.

But when tragedy struck and Katsuki's father died suddenly, thrusting him into the ruthless role of Mafia boss, their world shifted. Burdened by responsibilities and hardened by grief, Katsuki distanced himself from Marinette, forcing her to step back from the boy she once called her best friend.

Now 18, Marinette is caught between her innocence and the truth of the dangerous life she's always lived. And Katsuki-possessive, jealous, and unyielding-won't allow her to slip away so easily.

As tensions rise, enemies close in, and their feelings collide, Marinette and Katsuki must navigate the treacherous path between love and loyalty, light and shadow. Will they rise above the darkness, or will the world they've been born into consume them whole?
