Sweet Trap
So good! A surprise package of a story with a seme who is the perfect trap. No spoilers, just read it.
Monogatari no Ketsumatsu wa
A cute and fluffy story with steamy sexy scenes, opposites Miyuki and Kengo were absolutely adorable. The shy game otaku and the beautiful extrovert needed to work on communication but they still understood each other so well. I loved that we got a chapter of them a few years down the track and could see that whilst they could still have misunderstandings, what they both wanted was the happiness of being together and doing everyday things. So sweet.
Ore no Tonari no Kawaii Kemono
Cute little monster indeed! Haruto has been best friends with the serious faced delinquent Daichi, since they were little. Pretty as any girl, the OTT little dynamo is very possessive of Daichi and keeps him firmly away from any potential girlfriends. When one of their friends say that Haruto should be a girl he decides to run with that idea and forcefully dominates the taller boy into sexual submission whilst wearing a skirt. With lots of dirty talk, some naughty role play, and relentless positivity, Haruto gets his lifelong love to wake up to accepting that he not only needs his little monster, but that he loves the one who has always been at his side.
Urahara to Dilemma
A really great selection of short stories. Ch. 1-2, 6.5: Urahara to Jirenma- University freshman Tachibana Akeru is often misunderstood and in trouble because of his beautiful face. A prime example happens one night when he's caught in a fight with a jealous boyfriend., Nishida Kimihiko saves him and hearing that Akeru was kicked out of his room, asks if the younger man would like to live in the same apartment building as he and his two friends. Ch. 3: Yumiya no Tokushuu na Nichijou- VERY short spin-off of the title story about the bodyguards. My least favourite story. Ch. 4-5: Power of Love!- Cute looking delinquent Naohisa is dragged to classmate Uno's house after winning a fight. There he meets Uno's father, a man who catches his attention and admiration. Is he falling for the older man? I liked this story. Naohisa was a strong little dynamo and I appreciated his honesty with his friend. Ch. 6: Jouzetsuna Yubi- Scarred and deaf from a motorcycle accident, Tooru has trouble coming to terms with his new situation. One night he is scared by erotic novelist Tsukahara who tried to ask for directions, not realising Tooru was deaf. Crossing paths again, Tsukahara decides to be friendly as an apology. This story was lovely to have a MC with a disability and I liked the slightly predatory seme.
Scratch Blue
This story had some overlying sadness that made it a little darker than I anticipated. From loss of a parent with yankee student Akito’s mothers death when he was young, and bully-magnet Ryou’s neglectful parents to Sora’s emotionally abusive parent, the boys in this story all had difficulties to manage. Add to that the secret that Ryou has forgotten and the heavy burden of guilt felt by Akito and you would think this was a heavy psychological story. But it was most of all a BL, and the romance between the MCs was sweet and caring. I really liked the surprising well of strength in Ryou too. A very good story overall
