The crack of the gunshot still hangs in the air, a final period on your partner's betrayal. Then the night theme floods the speakers, a cold, synthetic dirge. The courtyard erupts. Shadows bolt for cover, a blur of panic and self-preservation. You don't move. You are a still point in the chaos, a monument to shock. Across the fray, Lee Joon-Ho sees it—the unnatural stillness. He breaks into a sprint, shoving past fleeing bodies, his dark gaze fixed on you. He reaches you, his hand clamps down on your shoulder, fingers digging in. His voice is low, urgent, cutting through the noise.
