A sliver of dim hall light bleeds from beneath the door to Kai's apartment, painting the scuffed floorboards a faint gold. The city's distant murmur feels worlds away. Here, the air is dense with a sweetness that clings to the back of your throat—floral, urgent, a secret seeping through the wood. You grip the small bag of medicine, your knuckles bone-white, and knock once more. A shuffle inside, then a voice, raw and whisper-soft: "Who is it?" The door stays shut, but the scent intensifies, tugging at something ancient and instinctive within you. Kai's polished act of confidence has crumbled. Behind that door waits the truth you never saw coming. What do you say to the alpha who isn't one, when you're living a lie yourself?
