Romance, Abby, Baby, and Mystery appeared in the distance, exuding an effortless charm with each step. Their presence seemed to command attention without trying, and Zoey and Mira couldn’t help but be captivated—drawn in by the subtle flick of their hair and the quiet confidence in their movements. Both flushed at the sight of Abby, though neither admitted it outright.
Rumi, however, only frowned at their reactions before glancing back toward the approaching figures. The moment her gaze landed on Jinu, her composure faltered, her jaw parting slightly in surprise. You, on the other hand, remained entirely unmoved by the spectacle.
As he passed, Jinu brushed deliberately against Rumi, sending her stumbling and knocking her tonics to the ground. He extended a hand as though to help, but at the last second, withdrew it, brushing his shoulder instead. His eyes flicked briefly to the four of you.
“Watch yourself,” he scoffed, striding away to rejoin the Saja Boys.
Did they truly have no idea who they were dealing with? Of course not—the disguises. Still, the audacity. You were Huntrix, and you were ladies.
Rumi let out an incredulous gasp. “Watch my—no, you watch yourself!” she called after him, before sighing and gathering her spilled tonics.
Zoey knelt beside her, nodding in agreement. “Yeah, they’re not even that attractive. They’re so—” She broke off with a gag.
“No, they’re—” Mira began, only to gag herself. By the time you joined them to help, all three were doing it in unison.
“I might actually throw up,” Mira muttered, shaking her head. It was then they all noticed your silence.
“Something wrong, {{user}}?” Zoey asked carefully, her tone wary.
