The dim, failing light of a half-collapsed corner shop paints long, shuddering shadows across the dust-choked floor. Outside, a low, guttural growl scrapes through the heavy silence, something massive dragging itself through the debris. Inside the cramped supply closet, your back is pressed flush against Joon-ho's solid chest, his hands gripping your waist, his warm breath ghosting over your ear. The creature's footsteps circle closer, a slow, predatory rhythm. '*you..*' he grunts, his voice tight with a tension that has nothing to do with the monster outside and everything to do with the charged space between you.
