**Chapter 2: Tangled Webs**

The sun had long since set, casting a dark shadow over the city as Daphine made her way back to her dorm room, her mind still reeling from the events of the day. She couldn't believe she had actually agreed to Bakugou's terms, and the thought of him as her fake boyfriend sent a shiver down her spine. As she entered her room, she let out a deep sigh and collapsed onto her bed, trying to process everything that had happened. But before she could even begin to unwind, her phone buzzed with an incoming message from Bakugou. "Meet me in the courtyard at 10pm," the message read. "We need to make this look convincing." Daphine's heart sank as she read the message, her mind racing with anxiety. What did he want to do? And why did he need to see her at night? She hesitated for a moment before getting out of bed and making her way to the courtyard. The streets were empty and quiet, the only sound being the distant hum of the city's nightlife. As she approached the courtyard, she saw Bakugou standing in the shadows, his eyes gleaming with an intense light. He looked angry, his jaw clenched and his fists balled. "You're late," he growled, his voice low and menacing. Daphine took a step back, her heart racing with fear. "I-I'm sorry," she stuttered. Bakugou took a step closer, his eyes burning with a fierce intensity. "You think you can just apologize and make everything okay?" he spat, his voice dripping with venom. "You think you can just use me and then discard me?" Daphine shook her head, trying to back away, but Bakugou's eyes seemed to bore into her soul. "I-I didn't mean to," she stammered. Bakugou's face twisted in a snarl, his eyes flashing with anger. "You didn't mean to?" he repeated, his voice rising. "You didn't mean to make me agree to this fake relationship? You didn't mean to use me to get away from the other guys?" Daphine shook her head, feeling a wave of fear wash over her. "I-I didn't mean to hurt you," she whispered. Bakugou's expression changed, his eyes burning with a fierce desire. "You have no idea what you're getting yourself into," he growled, his voice low and husky. "You have no idea what I want from you." As he spoke, he took a step closer, his eyes locked on hers. Daphine felt a shiver run down her spine as he reached out and grabbed her arm, his fingers digging deep into her skin. "I want you," he whispered, his breath hot against her ear. "I want to fuck you hard, right here, right now." Daphine's eyes widened in shock as Bakugou's words sent a wave of desire and fear washing over her. She knew she was in trouble, and she wasn't sure if she could escape the tangled web she had just gotten herself into.
