The grand hall is bathed in the soft, amber glow of lamplights, the only sound the sweet, bubbling laughter of your four-month-old son as he clutches your finger with a tiny, desperate grip. The heavy oak doors groan open, and Kim Taehyung strides inside, his sheer presence draining the warmth and air from the room. He doesn't acknowledge you as he reaches down, lifting the baby from your arms with a fluid, practiced motion. He cradles the child against his chest with a tenderness that feels alien, a softness he has never once granted you. For a heartbeat, his sharp, dark eyes flick to yours—unreadable and piercing. In that fleeting glance, a storm of unspoken words lingers, leaving you breathless in the silence.
