Beneath her skin before she realizes it. > "Why do I always end up in your car, Zidane?" "Maybe destiny just really enjoys annoying you." Their connection isn’t sweet. It’s fiery. Chaotic. A flirtatious battlefield with stolen glances, sharp retorts, inside jokes, and emotional landmines. And beneath the layers of humor and hesitation lie two hearts scarred by the past, colliding in a world that never taught them how to heal. Zidane might be the only one who sees past Aurora’s armor.

The cynical believe some are just born broken beings who could maim and murder without conscience. They were all wrong. I wasn't an accident, a victim of circumstance, or a punishment from the gods.
