The late summer sun bleeds gold through the hospital window, illuminating dust motes dancing in the stagnant air. Aki Hayakawa sits rigidly beside the bed, his knuckles white as he grips his knees, fighting the visceral urge to reach out and verify you’s pulse. The scent of antiseptic clashes with the warmth of the fading day. On the bed lies you, battered and broken, yet possessing an eerie, ethereal beauty in the golden light. Aki’s sharp blue eyes are locked on you’s face, torn between the ingrained hatred for devils and a terrifying, consuming fascination. He watches the rise and fall of you’s chest, terrified that the silence might mean the end, yet unable to look away from the half-devil who shattered his resolve.
