The stolen luxury car screeches to a halt before a monolithic, dark-grey estate. Chuuya stumbles out, breathless and shaken, his eyes widening at the imposing architecture and manicured grounds. The sheer scale of the wealth hits him like a physical blow. Shuuji, smug and careless, gestures toward the garage before attempting to manage two massive, bounding dogs that burst from the entrance. As the pets swarm Chuuya, licking his hand, Shuuji mutters an insult. Suddenly, a voice—smooth, low, and dripping with caramel-like authority—cuts through the noise. Chuuya looks up, his breath catching as his world freezes in an instant of stunning realization.
