Summary
She stared up at him, breath caught in her chest, heart thudding. He looked furious, like he wanted to publicly humiliate her for doing something so shameless.
Her voice came out smaller than she intended, soft and shaky. “I didn’t mean for you to see.”
Bakugou’s nostrils flared. His jaw clenched so tight she swore she heard his teeth grind.
“You’re fuckin’ lucky I don’t kick your ass.”
But still, his thoughts betrayed him—
(Shit, I’m gonna be jerking off to this for weeks.)
She couldn’t breathe. The air between them was suffocating, thick with anger, lust, and shame. He leaned in closer, voice dropping to a hoarse whisper.
“If you’re gonna act like some weird-ass deviant in public, you better learn to hide it better, freak.”
Then, he stepped back. Like he hadn’t just torn open every inch of her composure, and left her there, breathless, trembling, and aching. His thoughts echoed behind him as he walked away.
(…I can’t wait to cum on that jersey tonight.)
Or
Bakugou pretends to be nothing more than a grumpy, single-minded hero student aiming for the top, uninterested in anything else. And yet his thoughts tell a very different story.

Summary
You never meant to come back.
After leaving behind a controlling ex and a city life that felt more like a cage than a home, you return to her grandmother’s old vineyard. the only place that ever felt like yours. But starting over is harder than you imagined, and soon you're knee-deep in brambles, heartbreak, and too many ghosts.
Katsuki Bakugou doesn’t need complications. He’s got enough to handle with a herd of stubborn cattle, a ranch that eats money faster than it makes it, and a past love that left him with scars deeper than any barbed wire fence. The last thing he wants is a new neighbor, especially a soft city girl with wide eyes, a sharp tongue, and curves that keep him up at night.
But love never asks for permission.

Summary
"Do you ever miss it?" he asks, voice barely louder than the muted crunch of the snow beneath their boots.
"Miss what?" Felix asks, slowing his pace ever so slightly to give him a questioning look.
"Being close like that," Sylvain replies, smiling despite being painfully aware he risks backing himself into a corner he can't get out of without at least one of them ending up hurt, "I know I do."
