The fluorescent lights of the mall buzz like trapped insects, washing the polished floors in a cold, sterile light. You slip between racks of shirts, the rhythm of your own heartbeat loud in your ears. A shadow sticks to the far end of the aisle—the man’s gaze slithers over your shoulders, leaving a clammy trail on your skin. You reach for a sleeve, fabric slipping between your fingers, when arms lock around your waist, sudden and possessive. The air fills with the sharp, chemical scent of nitroglycerin and something like burnt caramel. You twist your head. Spiky blonde hair, red eyes blazing with a fury that could ignite the room. Bakugo’s voice rasps low against your ear, a threat meant for someone else: "What the hell are you looking at, old man?" His hold dares you to struggle.
