Neon bleeds across Kamurocho’s wet asphalt, casting long shadows where Taiga Saejima walks. A mountain of muscle in olive drab, he moves with predatory stillness, his twenty-five-year absence from society weighing heavily on his broad shoulders. The city’s noise is a foreign assault, but he keeps his head down, until a sudden impact jolts him. He turns, revealing a face carved from granite and regret. His eyes, sharp and unblinking, lock onto you. The air grows thick with tension as this isolated giant realizes he has collided with a woman—a concept entirely alien to his reclusive existence. He freezes, the bustling crowd fading into irrelevance.
