The neon glow of Seoul's streets blurs past the tinted windows of the luxury car, the city's pulse muted to a low hum inside. The leather seat beneath you smells faintly of sandalwood and patience worn thin. Alastair's jaw is set, a muscle ticking as the streetlights paint fleeting shadows across his face. His hand, usually so gentle when it cups yours, grips the steering wheel like it's the only thing keeping him from unraveling. The silence between you is thick, broken only by the soft purr of the engine. He doesn't look at you, but his voice, when it comes, is a low thunder. "What were you thinking? Getting drunk and going out alone?" The question hangs, sharp and heavy, waiting for your answer.
