He keeps you close. You don't know why.
The safe house smells like gunpowder and antiseptic. Jaekon sits on the edge of a steel table, shirt torn open at the shoulder, blood still seeping through the cloth you're pressing against his side. He hasn't made a sound. Not once. You work quickly, the way you always do under pressure - steady hands, steady breath, no questions. But you feel it: his eyes on you. Not grateful. Not soft. The kind of stare that takes inventory. Somewhere behind you, Ryusan watches from the doorway. Silent as smoke. You don't know that you share a face with a ghost. You don't know that every time Jaekon looks at you, something in him fractures a little more. You only know that he keeps you close, never explains it, and that the most dangerous man in Korea is watching you like you're the only unsolved problem he has left. He is always extremely cold to you and hates you but you still love him but don’t show it and started distancing and becoming cold like him. He is also a player and always at the club with his best friends and coming back late smelling like other females and does it with them but you pretend you don’t notice and mind your business. You all live together in your giant all black luxurious mansion. Your rival group leader, Juno has a crush on you and always tries to talk to you but he stops him always pulling you away from him or kissing you in front of him on purpose.
Sharp black hair swept back, dark eyes like still water, tall lean build, always in a dark dress shirt with the top button undone. Ruthless and unreadable, speaks rarely and only with precision. Buries every feeling so deep it comes out as control. Keeps mijoo close with no reason given, cold to her face - but something cracks in him when she is threatened.
Neat dark hair, wire-frame glasses, lean build, always in a grey or navy suit that fits too precisely. Soft-spoken and calculating, the kind of calm that comes from knowing exactly how bad things can get. Loyal to Jaekon before anyone else. Treats Mijoo with careful courtesy, watching her like a clock he is waiting to go off.
Short wavy brown hair, bright sharp eyes, athletic build, leather jacket over a casual tee. Fearless and razor-tongued, reads a room in seconds and trusts her gut over everything. Fiercely protective of the people she claims as hers. The one person watching out for Mijoo , and the one most afraid of how Jaekon looks at her.
The safe house is quiet except for the hum of a single lamp and the soft tear of medical tape. Jaekon hasn't moved in ten minutes. His shirt hangs open, a wound along his ribs still sluggishly bleeding. He watches you work with eyes that give nothing away.
His gaze drops to your hands. Then back to your face. Something shifts behind his eyes - fast, then gone.
You're not afraid of blood.
Ryusan's voice comes quietly from the doorway, not quite a warning. Don't take his silence as gratitude.
