Roughbuttender Stories

Muichiro has spent his life chasing numbness. The weight of his thoughts, the ghosts of his past, and the marks carved into his skin are proof of that. Pain is the only thing that feels real-until Genya Shinazugawa shatters his carefully built walls. Genya is raw fire, all sharp edges and untamed emotions, refusing to let Muichiro slip away. He sees everything-the scars, the silence, the suffocating loneliness-and he isn't afraid to drag Muichiro back into the light. But Genya's touch is nothing like pain. It's heat, pressure, possession. It's the kind of burn Muichiro doesn't want to escape from. The kind that makes him crave more. And when Genya offers himself as something to hold onto, to break against, to feel in every way possible-Muichiro isn't sure he can resist. Dark, intense, and dangerously intimate, Burn Into Me is a short story exploring the blurred lines between pain and pleasure, healing and destruction, and the undeniable pull of two broken souls who refuse to let go.
