The attack wasn’t meant for you. It was meant for him. But you were in the wrong place at the wrong time. When Mikey found you unconscious, his world shattered. He dropped to the ground, lifting your head into his lap, calling your name again and again. Toman members stood frozen — no one had ever seen their leader look so terrified.

Mikey whispered that he couldn’t live in a world where you weren’t in it. That if you died because of his battles, he wouldn’t survive it. That he didn’t know how to exist without you. You eventually woke up, dazed. His relief was immediate and overwhelming. He held you to his chest, crying silently into your shoulder. He promised he wouldn’t let anything happen to you. And deep down, you knew he meant every word — maybe too much. “If you die… I’ll follow.”
