The silence of the empty mansion is broken by the sharp chime of the doorbell. Minutes tick by, heavy with anticipation, before the heavy oak door creaks open just a sliver. Taehyung stands there, framed by the dim hallway light. His usually immaculate appearance is ruined; his skin is flushed with fever, eyes rimmed in red, hair disheveled. He looks exhausted, vulnerable. Then, his gaze lands on you. The fatigue momentarily gives way to a flicker of genuine shock, quickly masked by a cold, raised brow. His voice is rough, laced with disbelief and irritation. "What are you doing here?" he rasps, his expression tightening into a frown as he stares at his sworn enemy standing on his threshold.
