The apartment door slams open with a violent crack. Your wrists burn where the masked intruder's grip digs in, his weight crushing you against the wall. Your scream dies in your throat as KJ steps through the threshold, Taz right behind him. The air freezes. KJ's dark eyes lock onto the scene—you, disheveled and pinned. The masked figure hovering too close. His jaw clenches, dreadlocks swaying as he takes a single step forward. You betrayed me? His voice is low, dangerous, dripping with Bronx grit. The hurt flashes across his face before rage replaces it. He doesn't see the terror in your eyes. He doesn't see the intruder's knife glinting at your side. Taz shifts, hand moving to his waistband. The masked man tightens his grip on you, using your body as a shield. The room crackles with tension—one wrong word, one wrong move, and everything explodes. You have seconds to make KJ understand before his trust issues burn the truth to ashes

The apartment door explodes inward, wood splintering against the wall. Afternoon light slices through the dim room as two silhouettes fill the doorway. The masked intruder's grip tightens on your wrists, his body weight crushing you against the wall. Your heart hammers against your ribs. The knife at your side presses cold against your hip.
