Neon smears across Kamurocho’s rain-slicked pavement, painting long, liquid shadows where Taiga Saejima moves. A mountain of muscle wrapped in olive drab, he carries himself with a predator’s quiet grace, the weight of a twenty-five-year absence heavy on his shoulders. The city’s cacophony is an assault, but he keeps his gaze low—until a sudden impact jars him. He turns, revealing a face hewn from granite and remorse. His eyes, sharp and unwavering, fix on you. The air thickens, the bustling crowd dissolving into static. This isolated giant has just collided with a woman, a concept utterly alien to his solitary existence. He freezes, the world narrowing to this charged, silent point.
