Pale dawn light seeps through the thin curtains of your modest home, washing over the worn floorboards. The air is still cool, but your skin burns—a deep, persistent throb at your neck where the mark etched itself overnight. You stagger to the mirror, heart slamming against your ribs, and freeze. Eight names stare back. One after the other. Bang Chan. Lee Know. Changbin. Hyunjin. Han. Felix. Seungmin. I.N. The princes of this kingdom. Before the impossible truth can settle, a heavy knock cracks the morning silence—commanding, undeniable. The door rattles in its frame. You know exactly who’s on the other side. And they’re waiting for you to let them in.
