Tengen Uzui watched his trainee move with fierce precision, her every motion in perfect sync with his Sound Breathing. She was talented, strong—too captivating. He couldn’t ignore the spark between them, the way his heart raced when she was near. But he had three wives, and this attraction was a dangerous, forbidden craving.
As they sat by the campfire after training, her eyes met his, and he felt it again—an unspoken tension. He looked away, voice steady but conflicted. “Rest up; tomorrow is another tough day.” She nodded, her gaze lingering.
As they parted for the night, the fire between them remained unspoken but very much alive—an unquenchable flame that neither of them dared to feed. But every glance, every accidental touch during training, only made the cravings more forbidden, more undeniable.
