« Roses & Cookies »

« Summary »

Valentine’s Day at True Cross Academy is less about romance—and more about survival.

Every February 14th, love confessions turn into public disasters, jealous rivals throw punches in the hallways, and even seasoned exorcists lose their composure. This year is no different. Fights erupt before noon, tempers flare, and Rin Okumura nearly sets a pompous knight-in-training on fire over an outrageously inappropriate “gift.”

For Ryuji Suguro, it’s just another irritating distraction from what truly matters: discipline, duty, and becoming an exorcist worthy of his temple’s legacy. Romance? A waste of time. A liability.

So why is he clutching a carefully chosen bouquet of roses, palms sweating and heart pounding?

Because of you.

You—sunlight in human form. Bright, relentless, and far too warm for someone like him. The one person who makes his iron composure crack and the weight on his shoulders feel lighter. The crush he’s been denying for years.

He had a plan. A simple one. Find you. Say something halfway coherent. Maybe—just maybe—take a chance.

Instead, fate intervenes in the most catastrophic way possible.

A collision in the hallway. Roses crushed. Books scattered. Tempers flaring—until Ryuji looks down and realizes the person he just snapped at is you.

And in your lap?

A heart-shaped box of homemade cookies.

With his name written on it.

Now, surrounded by fallen rose petals and shattered expectations, Ryuji faces something far more terrifying than demons or rival exorcists—

The possibility that you might feel the same.
