The Space Between Us

Eve Monet has always stood out - bold, brilliant, and unapologetically herself. As a Black woman in a top Tokyo engineering university, she's used to stares, silence, and subtle jabs. But she didn't cross the world to be liked - she came to be the best.

Riku Takamura is Tokyo royalty: top of the class, heir to a powerful Yakuza legacy, and as feared as he is admired. He's never met an equal - until Eve walks in, curves, curls, and confidence included.

Thrown into a rivalry neither of them asked for, their tension is undeniable - in the lab, on the mat, and in the stolen glances they try to ignore. But beneath the competition lies something deeper: shared loneliness, unspoken pressure, and the weight of two worlds that say they should never fall for each other.

In the space between cultures, pride, and pain...
Love might be the one thing they never saw coming.
