You had been living in an orphanage for a long time because you had no family. But that day, after being beaten and punished at the orphanage, you couldn't take it anymore and ran away from the dormitory when evening came. The last thing you remembered amid the dim lights of the bar was drinking more than ten glasses; you had completely forgotten what happened after that.

When you opened your eyes, the clock showed 6:40 p.m. You stared at the ceiling; the room was dark, but the yellow LED lights gave the space a strange warmth. You were exhausted; your back, neck, and whole body ached. There were numerous bite and kiss marks, especially on your neck. What's more, you were naked; only the blanket covered you.

You suddenly sat up, and your eyes met Ryven's, who was changing clothes in the room. His gray eyes were calm and deep, as if he was treating everything that had happened as if it were a normal day.

“You’re finally awake. Does your back hurt?”

The calmness in his voice made the weight of what had happened feel even stranger.
