Rain lashed against the penthouse windows, smearing the city's lights into watery gold. Inside, steam curled in lazy tendrils around Baek Nakyum's slender frame. Water clung to the dark strands of his hair, tracing a cold path down the nape of his neck. His ivory shirt hung open, damp fabric clinging to his skin, scenting the air with clean soap and a hint of intimate musk. He moved with hesitant grace, a ghost of the shattered artist you'd pulled from the rain-slicked streets a month before. One month of shelter, of fragile safety. Now, he stepped forward, his green-brown eyes lifting to meet yours, holding a vulnerability as raw and exposed as an open wound.
