I want a hundred days of bright light by MercurialNight

Rei eating a hundred different dinners. Seeing a hundred new sights. Barging into Kazuki’s bedroom every single night to check that his window was locked. Asking how to do laundry. Rei learning how to cook so he could help with the diner. Learning to drive, so he could pick Miri up from daycare and Kazuki from the bar at four in the morning. Rei saying welcome home. Rei, saying I love you a hundred different ways. Shigeki never gave up trying to recapture his son. After three years of relentless pursuit, he closes in. In order to protect his family, Rei finally faces a confrontation he's been desperate to avoid. Kazuki is there in the aftermath, facing his own.

The Injury of Knowing You by MercurialNight

“What…” Rei gasps, an overheated haze clouding his head. It’s dark. He doesn’t know where he is. He’s in pain and someone’s pinned beneath him. Gun shaking in his hand. Maybe he’s dreaming. Who is he killing? “Rei,” the target says, voice low and quiet. Hiding fear. “Let go.” Why hasn’t he fired yet? Who…is this… Rei’s grip loosens. “...I know you.” Rei comes down with a bad flu and Kazuki takes care of him. But fevered delirium and a highly paranoid assassin are a volatile combination. For the first time, Kazuki realizes just how dangerous the man he shares his life with can be.

all that we intend is scrawled in sand By monochromevelyn

And yet, here he was, standing frozen like a deer in the headlight at the sight of blood. At the sight of Kazuki’s blood, the way he was unconscious on the ground as he continued to bleed from his head following the fall against the edge of the curb, slowly seeping to the ground and staining it red. There was a broken lightbulb, of glasses shattering right next to his hand. “Papa Rei, call the ambulance,” Miri urged Rei before shifting her attention again to Kazuki, kneeling by his side and roughly shaking him to get him to wake up with increasing panic. “Papa Kazu! Papa Kazu, wake up! This is not funny! Papa Rei, hurry! Ambulance!” -------------- OR: Kazuki had a head injury and lost his memories. Rei and Miri worked together to make him remember, and Kazuki fell in love all over again.

The Authentic Guide to a Fake Relationship by Etiladill

Kazuki has always known exactly who Rei is—confident, untouchable, always in control. Another alpha, just like him.

So when new evidence comes to light, his whole world is suddenly being flipped upside down. Cue panic, chaos, and a very stubborn father breathing down Rei’s neck, demanding he bond with the perfect alpha, preferably by yesterday.

Kazuki’s solution? Fake dating. It sounds simple enough.

But helping socially repressed, utterly clueless Rei navigate the world of courtship is a full-time, hilarious disaster. And yet, as Kazuki coaches and Rei tries his best, sparks fly in the most inconvenient ways.

Pretending to be in love might just be harder than falling for each other for real.

Limpiando la sangre by Lerishain

La familia ha pasado diez años de tranquilidad después de dejar la mafia y enfocarse en lo que de verdad importa, Miri. Mas hay asuntos que todavía no se han resuelto y se mantienen como secretos individuales, o eso pensaban... Mientras Kazuki pasa por un conflicto de identidad, Rei revela sentimientos que guarda hace años, y Miri, desentierra el pasado que sus padres prometieron ocultarle para siempre.

A Message by shadow_seek3r

Kazuki realizes something is not right when he gets home. Rei went out to do a job, Miri was off at a friends for a sleepover. He's on his own. Or: The organization sends a message.

Out of touch by Shadowless13

Kazuki may not have all the training that Rei has, but he knows when he’s being followed. He makes the necessary changes. It's not enough. 0-0-0-0-0-0-0 When Kazuki doesn't return from a grocery run, Rei refuses to feel concerned. Kazuki's a grown man, an accomplished hitman, he can look after himself. Then it turns into 24 hours, and Rei reacts as any emotionally suppressed assassin would.

And I don't know if I'ma see you again by TheCartoonistQuill

An au where Kazuki and Rei do leave the organization, go to the seaside, open a diner, live together. Just not without Miri.

Miri has left with her mother ten years ago and they haven't seen her since. They had made sure she and Misaki were safe, they had killed Ogino and made sure the organization didn't have them in mind, and then they were out of the picture like they were never in it.

Rei had accepted it. Kazuki hadn't.

And then they kissed... No wait they already did

Really, who could be a better coach than your boyfriend?
