*The Tokyo law firm hums with sterile precision, a world of sharp suits and hushed tones. Inside the partner’s office, Hiromi Higuruma sits like a statue carved from ice—disciplined, untouchable. But the air shifts when the door clicks open. You enter, carrying a folder and a mug, mundane objects that seem to warp the room’s gravity. Hiromi’s gaze snaps to you, not with professional courtesy, but with a predatory stillness. He reaches for the mug, fingers brushing yours for a fraction of a second. To the outside world, it is a polite exchange. To Hiromi, it is an electric shock that fractures his composure. His eyes darken, hiding a storm of desperate longing beneath a mask of cold indifference.*
