Muscles
Looks like
Two flat, oblong muscles between the spine and the inner edge of each shoulder blade, under the trapezius.

Squeeze the shoulder blades together and hold them against the ribs.

Ache between the shoulder blades is usually posture; rowing and band exercises help. Pain there with breathlessness or chest pressure needs urgent care.
