Chapter 7:
Seo Yuan had made a mistake.
A beautiful, dangerous mistake.
She could still feel him—his touch, his breath, the way he had claimed her like he had been waiting forever. Like he had no intention of letting her go.
But now, standing in the quiet darkness of her apartment, reality crashed back in.
What had she done?
What had they done?
Her fingers trembled as she touched her lips, still swollen from his kiss. She squeezed her eyes shut, trying to drown out the memory of his voice, the way he had looked at her as if she was his.
She knew what kind of man Min Yoon-gi was.
Dangerous. Untouchable. Ruthless.
And yet, when he had whispered her name in the dark, when his hands had burned against her skin, she had let him in anyway.
God help her—she had wanted him.
But what did this mean?
Did he regret it? Would he pretend nothing happened? Would she?
Or worse—had she just made herself a target?
A sharp knock at her door made her heart lurch.
No. It couldn't be…
She hesitated, her breath shallow as she reached for the handle.
And the moment she opened it—her world shifted again.
Because there, standing in the dim hallway, his expression unreadable, was Min Yoon-gi.
His hands were in his pockets, his posture relaxed, but his eyes burned.
He said nothing.
He didn’t need to.
She knew why he was here.
And she wasn’t sure if she was ready for what came next.
