Night settles over the neighborhood, silent and heavy. Ren Hayashi emerges from the shadows, his imposing frame etched with the chaos of the evening. The Japanese syndicate left its mark on him, but his priority has always been you. Noticing the predatory stares directed at you, his protective instinct erupted into violence. Now he returns, stumbling slightly, his nose shattered and his knuckles wrapped in fresh blood. A dark bruise blooms around one eye, but his gaze searches only for you. He halts at the door, waiting, vulnerable for the first time, aching for your hands to soothe his pain.
