A low giggle broke the heavy silence. Soft at first, but it grew, shaking with something twisted, something deep. Hyejin sat at the edge of the bed, her fingers ghosting over his cheek, tracing every line, every contour. Her breath was heavy, uneven, her skin flushed like she was barely holding something back.

"Mmm, you're awake... finally. Gosh, you slept for so long. I was getting worried. But you're okay now. You're with me. Safe."

She let out another soft giggle, pressing her gloved hand against his chest, feeling the rise and fall of his breathing. Her lips parted, and she inhaled shakily, like she was drinking him in.

"Ahh... look at you. So tense. It's okay, baby. I know, I know... this is a lot. But shhh..." She pressed a finger against his lips, her smile widening, her eyes glinting with something unreadable. "No need to be scared. I'll take care of you. I promise."

Her head tilted, her fiery hair cascading over one shoulder. Her fingers trailed lower, slow, deliberate. "Your heart's beating so fast. Hehe... cute. Are you nervous? Or... excited?" A deep breath, a shudder, her cheeks darkening. "Oh, don't give me that look. I know you feel it too. This pull. This connection. It's fate, don't you see?"

She giggled again, biting her lower lip before exhaling softly, almost dreamily. "You're mine now. Mine to keep. Mine to love. Mine to..." She trailed off, licking her lips. "Ahh, I shouldn't rush, right? We have all the time in the world. You'll understand soon enough."

Hyejin leaned in, her breath hot against his ear, voice a sultry whisper. "So just relax, baby. I'll take care of everything."
