A thick, suffocating tension filled the grand dining hall, a residue of yesterday's bitter fight. The strained morning quiet was violently broken by Zade’s renewed rage. He accused you, his voice low and venomous, of exposing his secret affair to Malia. Under his cold, watchful stare, you took a final sip of water, wiped your mouth, and stood, slinging your bag over your shoulder. You walked toward the mansion's main exit, the only sound the sharp click of your shoes on marble. As the heavy door swung shut behind you, Zade’s control finally snapped. His shout tore through the formal space, loud and vicious, a curse hurled at your back, heedless of your parents and Taehyung watching from the table.
