Summary
Life was a kaleidoscope of muted grays, blacks and whites. The concept of color didn’t belong to everyone, and it certainly didn’t belong to Blake - unless she found and locked eyes with her soulmate.
But her past, ever haunting her, caused the girl to keep her head down and avoid making eye contact with any strangers she came across. She didn’t want to find her soulmate.
Well, it was more like she didn’t believe she was worthy of one.
Blake accepted that her world would remain forever gray. It was what she deserved, after all.
That was, until she met an oddly captivating girl that would open her eyes to new possibilities.

Summary
Blake shifts her focus fully, unable to hear Sun calling to her as she drifts towards the source of the sound, the chords shifting into a palette of colours, of greens, of reds, of purples, and of gold. She stumbles over her steps as she moves towards the music, her lips almost giving way to a smirk when a soft voice joins the chorus, and suddenly she is more drawn to the song, hypnotised by a sound she’d not realised had been robbed of her for years, held from her grasp in favour of cold, colourless notes.
After years of feeling uninspired by the music she used to love, piano major Blake Belladonna's life is filled with grey music. A fateful meeting with guitarist Yang Xiao Long fills her world with new colour, but is it simply musical appreciation that draws them together or something more?

Summary
May I have your name?"
She swallowed. "Blake."
"Blake, huh…" The noirette wondered what was going through the blonde's head and why there was suddenly this small smile on her lips. "I'm Yang, in case you're wondering. And, while we're at it, may I have your number as well? It's how we do things around here."

Blake has a crush on the barista named Yang, so much so that she worries over her health with how often Yang smokes. What she doesn't realize is that Yang never smokes, and the smoke coming out of her mouth is another matter entirely... a more mythical matter, if you will.

Summary
Blake Belladonna’s ex-boyfriend is a well-known and undefeatable underground boxing champion at Beacon’s Boxing. When she finally manages to escape his abuse, she stumbles straight into the arms of a tired and desperate boxer.
Yang Xiao Long has only ever known one path — and she hates it. She’s unmotivated, undriven, and unambitious, but when an angry brunette bursts into her life and insists that Yang train under her so that they may end the reign of some asshole named Adam Taurus, she can’t help but consider that there’s perhaps more in the world besides her and her sister.
————————————
“What makes you think I can’t beat Adam in a fight myself?”
“You probably couldn’t even beat me in a fight right now, and I’m not at his level. But I’ve… let’s just say I’ve known him for a long ass time. So I know everything about the way he fights. His tells, his signature moves and how to avoid them. I know everything there is to know to beat him.”
