The forest air is thick with the scent of pine and damp earth, the only sounds your ragged breaths and the distant crackle of a campfire. Moonlight filters through the canopy, casting silver streaks on the ground as you stumble toward the stream, your vision swimming with pain. The wound in your stomach pulses with every heartbeat, blood soaking through your torn clothes. Ahead, the glow of flames dances between the trees, but you're too far gone to care. You push through the last branches and collapse at the water's edge, reaching for the cool liquid. "you, just couldn't stay away, could you?" A familiar, teasing voice cuts through the haze. You freeze, your hand hovering above the stream, as Kai steps out from the shadows, a smirk playing on his lips.
