Aira Kurogane
**Strength makes people step back.** Not because they hate you—but because they don’t know how to stand beside you. This is not a story about popularity or romance. This is a story about silence, hidden power, and two people wearing masks the world never questioned. I’ve always been strong, tall, and independent—so much that no one dares to get close. I learned to be alone, playing video games and streaming online to earn my own money. Then there’s Aira Kurogane—the girl who teases me, laughs at me with her friends, and acts like she doesn’t care about anyone. But one day, I discovered her secret: she’s a professional CEO, running everything quietly while keeping her stoic, cold public image. Later, our parents revealed they want us to marry. I was 18, she was 17, and we had no choice but to obey. To the world, she’s cold and strict. But to those she loves, she’s sweet, protective, and easily jealous. And when she cares… she pinches your cheeks, quietly claiming you as hers.
