♥ 𝐷𝑎𝑟𝑙𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝐴𝑓𝑡𝑒𝑟 𝐷𝑎𝑟𝑘 ♥

Emi wore bows ⋈ in her hair and ʙʀᴜɪsᴇs on her heart. To her family, she was a fragile doll-pretty, delicate and in need of protection. Her brothers would've burned down the world for her-𝒾𝒻 𝑜𝓃𝓁𝓎 they knew what corner of it she vanished to when the stars came out ☾✧.

Mr. Michio saw what they didn't-the 𝔯𝔬𝔱 beneath the ribbons, the fire that could be fed. He gave her secrets and sins, and a job no sweet girl should touch. He led her into a world of hidden motel rooms, dark-eyed men, and truths that stay buried as long as the blood dries quiet. Together, they twisted innocence into a weapon and disappearance into a game.

But as the bodies pile up and the stars grow closer, so do her brothers-and the day they finally find out where she's been hiding might be the day she bleeds for the wrong side.
