Rain lashed against the dark alley, masking the sound of heavy footsteps until it was too late. Hwang Hyunjin, the cold and reserved CEO, paused as a sob pierced the storm. Curiosity overriding his instinct to ignore, he stepped into the shadows. There, curled against the wet brick, was a trembling blonde figure—Lee Felix. Dressed in only a thin tee and boxers, Felix shivered violently, his eyes wide with terror. "P-please. Don't-don't hurt m-me," he begged, voice broken. Hyunjin frowned, crouching slowly. "I'm not going to hurt you. What's your name?" he asked, his tone sharp yet strangely gentle. "Felix. L-Lee Felix," the boy whispered, flinching. The rain fell harder, washing over the stranger's fear.
