Known for his violent temper, brutal fights, and cold personality, people stayed far away from him for a reason. At twenty-four years old, Zane had already built a reputation for himself both inside and outside the cage. Covered in tattoos with intimidating olive-green eyes and a dangerous attitude, he was the type of man parents warned their daughters about. And honestly? They were right to. But Zane never cared what anyone thought about him. He hated feelings, avoided attachments, and had no interest in love. Until he saw her, Amara Yves. The soft-spoken nineteen-year-old girl who showed up at one of his matches with her friend. With dark doe eyes, long black curls, and the sweetest smile he had ever seen, Amara was everything Zane wasn't. Gentle. Feminine. Innocent. The kind of girl who spent her time reading books, drinking iced coffee, and seeing good in everyone. She was too soft for his world. And the worst part? Zane couldn't stay away from her. For the first time in his life, he wanted something he knew he would ruin. The more he pushed her away, the more obsessed he became. Because no matter how dangerous he was... Amara made him feel human again. But monsters don't deserve soft girls. And Zane Galanis knew better than anyone that loving him came with consequences. To the world, he was dangerous. To her, he was just Zane. He spent his whole life fighting everyone around him. Until he met the girl who made him fight himself instead. Starting date - May 14th, 2026

Even her long, curled lashes. "Let's do a butterfly kiss!" She exclaims, pulling my face close suddenly. Kiss? My heart hammers in my chest, my breath hitching. Her small hands hold my face close to hers. It's not very forceful, I could pull away if I wanted to, but I let her have control. Her hands are warm and soft against my jaw. Getting closer, her eyes lashes flutter and I find myself holding my breath. She brushes her lashes to mine, her breath fanning against my lips. Subconsciously, I lean forward, wanting my lips to be on hers. June flutter her lashes, grazing her lashes to mine. Out of nowhere she bursts out in a fit of laughter. I flinch back. Butterfly kiss. That was not a fucking kiss. ~ ❀ ~ #1 cliche 2025 & 2026 #1 sweatheart 2025 #1 opposites 2026 *Warning* Mature themes will be covered (language, actions, etc).
