Terms and Conditions (BAKUGOU KATSUKI X READER)

You never planned to drag Bakugou Katsuki into your mess-especially not like this. But when you're backed into a corner by a powerful family and a marriage you never asked for, you turn to the only person who might scare them off: an old classmate with a temper, a reputation, and absolutely no interest in playing pretend.

What starts as a cold arrangement quickly turns into something else. The lines blur. The stakes rise. And suddenly, the lie you built to protect yourself doesn't feel so fake anymore.

Because somewhere between the bickering and the glances you weren't supposed to notice, something real begins to bloom-and neither of you are ready for what comes next.
