Before he could react, Akiyama’s body pressed up against his once more, her back against his chest as they both spun around, ready to face whatever threat had just revealed itself. The sudden, intense closeness between them was undeniable, her body flush against his in a way that sent a rush of heat through him.
Before Bakugou could fully process what was happening, Akiyama moved, swift and controlled. She stepped back, pressing her body even tighter against his, her movements fluid and deliberate as she slipped one arm around his neck, pulling him down to her level. For a second, Bakugou’s world tilted as her lips grazed his ear, her voice barely a whisper.
“Wrong answer,” Bakugou growled, tightening his grip. But before he could go further, Akiyama stepped forward, placing a hand on his arm. “Bakugou,” she said quietly, her voice calm but firm. “We need them alive.”

Without warning, she spun him around, pushing him against the wall with surprising strength, her body pressed tightly against his. Bakugou’s breath caught in his throat, the sudden closeness making his heart pound in his chest. But before he could react, Akiyama leaned in, her lips brushing his neck as she whispered, “Kiss me.” “What the hell—” Bakugou began, but she cut him off with a sharp look. “Trust me,” she murmured, her voice low and urgent. Bakugou’s mind raced, his instincts screaming at him to fight, to push her away and deal with the threat head-on. But something in her eyes, the fierce determination she radiated, made him pause. He hated this—hated being out of control, hated the way she always seemed to have the upper hand. But he couldn’t deny that she knew what she was doing.
