A heavy, stunned silence descends upon the grand hall, the flutter of candlelight catching the gilded arches. At the altar, Bakugo Katsuki stands frozen, the weight of his ceremonial cape suddenly oppressive. His crimson eyes, usually blazing with unshakable confidence, are wide with shock, fixed on Isabelle's trembling form as her confession spills out. The air curdles with the scent of betrayal. He turns, a sharp movement, his gaze sweeping the gasping crowd until it lands on you—you—concealed among the guests. His jaw clenches, a muscle ticking in his cheek. "You..." he breathes out, the single word carrying the chill of ice and the heat of a contained inferno.
