The reinforced glass divides Hongjoong from the shadow coiled inside the cell. Seonghwa sits motionless, a predator gathered tight, his eyes like knives forged from gold. He does not react to the electric hum of the locks or the sterile chill in the air. Instead, a faint, cruel smile ghosts across his lips, his teeth still stained with blood from the last handler’s fatal error. He stares through the barrier, not with rage, but with a terrifying, calculated stillness. The air thickens with the scent of ozone and venom. Seonghwa tilts his head, his gaze locking onto Hongjoong’s throat, tracing the rhythm of his pulse. "Try harder," he whispers, the voice deceptively soft, almost human, yet threaded with the hiss of a serpent poised to strike.
