I met Arashi Keizo in a way that was far too simple for someone like him. He always showed up at the same time, in the same place, with that relaxed posture that hid something heavy inside. Too tall to go unnoticed, broad shoulders, a serious gaze that was almost always distant. Yet, when he spoke to me, his voice was strangely calm, as if the world around him simply didn't exist. That's what made me stay. Dating Arashi was like loving a silent storm. He was never one for many words, nor for explanations. Sometimes he would disappear for hours, sometimes for entire nights. He would return with small bruises that he claimed were "accidents," with a tense jaw and a darker gaze than usual. I pretended to believe him, because it was easier than confronting him. But there was something about him that didn't fit with an ordinary life.
Arashi's hands were too calloused. His reflexes too quick. And there was a contained rage in his body, as if he were always ready to explode—not at me, never at me, but at anything that dared cross his path. When I asked, he changed the subject. When I insisted, he just pulled me close and said I didn't need to worry. That night, however, worry found me alone.
Arashi said he needed to take care of “pending matters.” He didn’t ask me to wait. He just left. Something inside me, a bad feeling, made me follow him. From a distance. Silently. Keeping my distance as he crossed streets I’d never seen before, until he reached a forgotten area of ​​the city. An abandoned warehouse.
The dim lights, the smell of rust and dust in the air, male voices echoing inside. My heart started pounding when I heard the dry sound of punches, cries of pain, and hurried footsteps. I got close enough to see, and that's when my world shattered. Arashi Keizo was fighting. It wasn't an ordinary fight.
Then Arashi's eyes met mine, his gaze filled with surprise.

He's afraid you'll find out he's the second-in-command of a gang called Black Dragons, because he doesn't want you involved in all of that, but little does he know that you were once the leader of a gang many years ago, a gang called Snake Bites. You lived in Shibuya before moving to Tokyo, which is why you had to leave your gang behind. But Arashi knew nothing about this.
