Ashes and Embers
BNHA | Katsuki Bakugo x Reader
She was a shadow in the hero world-scarred by experiments, silent, hiding her true strength behind a mask. No one but her family knew her story. Not her classmates, not her teachers... even she wasn't sure of herself.
Except Bakugou. He met her once, long before U.A., and something about her never left him. Now, years later, she's back-stronger, quieter, and carrying secrets heavy enough to break her.
He doesn't realise it yet, but every promise he makes, every fight they share, and every laugh he pulls from her is pulling him closer to the truth. And in a world that threatens to burn them both, she might just be the reason he learns what it means to love.
A slow-burning romance of fire, ash, and the embers that refuse to die.

Amethyst. (Katsuki Bakugo x Reader)
I'm the fourth of five Todoroki children. Not the prodigy. Not the favorite. Just the one who stayed quiet. Who followed orders. Who stepped into the fire when no one else would. For almost two years, I fought as a licensed Pro-Hero. I wore the name Amethyst. I did what was expected. And I survived. But after the attack on the USJ, everything changed. The public wants answers. The Hero Commission wants control. And now, all eyes are on me- The youngest Pro-Hero in Japan. The daughter of Endeavor. Despite my experience, I've been ordered to attend U.A. High. To sit in classrooms. To train with students half as prepared. To pretend I'm just one of them. But I'm not. Being a hero was easier than this. Because no one prepares you for what it means to fall for someone like Katsuki Bakugo- Loud, reckless, infuriating... And the only person who's ever made me feel seen. And as if that wasn't enough... I'm being followed. And for the first time in years- I'm not sure I can win this alone. A slow-burn story about control, trust, and choosing your own path-even when your past refuses to let go. 💠 Bakugo x Pro-Hero!

_______________________________ "This is the story of how we became the greatest heroes." _________________________________ Nothing about Miyuki's past was clear. All she and anyone ever knew was the strange girl was found abandoned and covered in blood and on the brink of death. The detective and the number one hero, after searching for a long time and finding nothing of her past, finally put her case to rest. Now, Miyuki must survive on her own with a Quirk whose power makes people fear her, a cold family she cannot escape, and the slanders of those around her echoing in her ears as she continuously strives towards her life's goal: Becoming a hero just like her idol, All Might. But how can she become someone who saves people when those she wishes to save spit at and revile her? An encounter with a Quirkless boy and a man from her past might just change all of that... _________________________________________ (My Hero Academia X Oc) (Bakugou Katsuki X Oc) ©𝐐𝐮𝐞𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐞𝐃𝐢𝐚𝐬𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐚Complete

A side that's more vulnerable, maybe even protective. The more you clash, the more your feelings for him shift, and the line between hatred and attraction starts to blur.

Done with scrubbing questionable substances off hospital walls. Her quirk-Chiropractor, the ability to relieve pain and tension with a touch-might make her a miracle worker, but it can't save her from burnout. She's exhausted, sarcastic, and one cracked vertebra away from quitting healthcare entirely. Then life throws her the world's most explosive curveball: She moves into the house right next door to Bakugo Katsuki-now the No. 5 Pro Hero, fully grown, annoyingly gorgeous, and carrying a secret guilt he's tried to bury for years. They haven't seen each other since their early twenties. Since that night. Their reckless, drunken, unforgettable one-night stand. To her? It was hot, wild, and not worth a shred of regret. To him? It was a mistake-not because of her, but because he thinks he didn't treat her right. Didn't ask her out. Didn't make it special. Didn't deserve it. And now that she's back in his life, his guilt turns into something unexpected: Homemade bentos. Left on her doorstep. Every morning. Like an apology he can't stop giving. But as her terrible shifts pile up, her quirk starts easing his old injuries, and their tense doorstep conversations turn into something dangerously warm, one thing becomes clear: This isn't about regret anymore. It's about healing-his body, her burnout, their past. And maybe, if the universe doesn't interfere first... something worth fighting for.Complete

katsuki bakugo x f!reader 𔘓 slowburn ── .✦° ────────────────────── The first time you saw Katsuki Bakugo was at the UA Hero Course entrance exams. You two both attended Aldera Junior High, but had never spoken before. You two had never even been in the same class. Only once during your school's sports festival were you ever in the same vicinity. You didn't really care about the other classes, but Katsuki Bakugo was so loud he was almost impossible to ignore. It didn't help that some girls in your class had crushes on him. Loudly. They had a habit of asking you what you thought of him, wanting you to join in on their fangirling session. Your first impression of him was obnoxious. Very obnoxious. He was cute, sure, but so incredibly obnoxious. - or: You enter UA and begin to feel sick whenever you're near Katsuki Bakugo. Spoiler: you're in love. ♡ ∩_∩ ╭ („• ֊ •„)♡ ୨୧ ┈┈ • ┈╮ U U started .ᐟ 1 sept. 2025 ended .ᐟ ?? ╰┈ • ┈ ┈ ୨୧ ┈┈ • ┈╯ also on ao3 .ᐟ user: violetsatellite![SHE BELONGS TO ME [KATSUKI BAKUGO]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/390463942-256-k107081.jpg)
SHE BELONGS TO ME [KATSUKI BAKUGO]
She was a spark that refused to fade. Born with a powerful, elemental Quirk and a fire in her chest that never dimmed, she was destined to stand out. But when tragedy struck and her parents were taken from her far too young, that spark turned into a wildfire, untamed, angry, and burning for something more. UA High was supposed to be the start of her journey to become the hero she always dreamed of being. She didn't expect it to be the place where she'd confront her grief, fight for her future, and find the missing part of her heart in the most unlikely person. He's fierce, explosive, and driven by a need to prove himself. The blonde with a temper as short as his fuse. But underneath all the fire and fury, she sees the same pain, the same hunger to be more. Together, they're chaos and chemistry. Rivals, partners, something deeper neither of them dares to name. This is the story of how she rose from the ashes, and how he helped her remember that even the strongest flames can still be warm.Complete
