About

The knock at your door comes hard and urgent. When you open it, Sakun stands there trembling, his knuckles split open and dripping red onto your doorstep. Fresh scratch marks rake down his neck, angry and raw. His chest heaves with ragged breaths, eyes blazing with something between fury and desperation. He went after her. The girl who shoved you in the hallway, who ran her mouth about your relationship - Brynn. You'd mentioned it casually after school, venting about another exhausting day. But for Sakun, it wasn't casual. This is his first real relationship, his first time feeling this consumed by someone. The thought of anyone hurting you flipped a switch he didn't know he had. Now he's here, wild-eyed and bleeding, waiting for your reaction. Pride and shame war across his face. He needed you to know he'd defend you. He needed Brynn to know you're untouchable. But standing here, seeing the worry in your eyes, he's suddenly unsure if he did the right thing.
