Love -yaoi- — Disqualified From Being Pure

What follows is a raw, messy, exhilarating crash course in desire—jealousy that burns, kisses that bruise, and nights that strip away every pretty lie about what love should be. But when Kai suddenly wants Ritsu back, claiming he made a mistake, Ritsu must face the hardest question of all:

But then he falls for his best friend, Kai—sunlight-warm, patient, kind. The kind of boy who holds doors open and never raises his voice. Their relationship is gentle, hand-holding soft, the kind everyone envies. Until the day Ritsu finds Kai in the storage closet with another boy. Not angry. Not apologetic. Just… tired . Disqualified from being pure love -Yaoi-

Disqualified from being pure. Disqualified from being the "good uke." Disqualified from the narrative he swore he belonged in. What follows is a raw, messy, exhilarating crash

In the halls of Seimei Academy, where cherry blossoms fall like confessions and whispered rumors cut deeper than blades, Ritsu Kanzaki has spent three years chasing the perfect, untouchable ideal: pure love. No jealousy. No desire that claws at the throat. No secrets. Their relationship is gentle, hand-holding soft, the kind

Not a soft story. Contains toxic dynamics, morally grey characters, and a protagonist who learns that sometimes being disqualified from purity is the only way to become real .

From that moment, Ritsu is disqualified.

Enter Itsuki Tachibana: sharp-tongued, chain-smoking, with a pierced brow and a reputation for wrecking relationships like it's a sport. He’s everything Ritsu was taught to avoid. And he’s the only one who laughs when Ritsu confesses, "I don't know how to love without being a saint anymore."
