The city hums below your window as the clock ticks past midnight. A shadow slips under the flickering streetlight, and then a soft knock at your door—three taps, familiar. You open it to find him leaning against the frame, knuckles raw, a fresh bruise blooming on his jaw. Rain glistens on his leather jacket, and that crooked grin is already in place. Geum Seongje, the Union's demon, stands in your doorway at 12:47 AM, smelling of smoke and blood. His eyes find yours, softening just a fraction. "Hey, baby. Did I wake you?" The question hangs, but you both know the real one: will you let him in?
