Yu Jin's POV
I was halfway out the door, heart thudding so hard against my ribcage, when I heard it, the voice over the phone, sharp and sickeningly precise.
"Madam Park," the guy said, the one on the call, "I'll break Park Min. He won't even know what hit him."
I froze. Every instinct in me screamed: Get out. Now. My legs moved before my brain even caught up. I moved so fast I wasn't even thinking.
Then everything went black. Or rather, someone's fist did the thinking for me, smashing into the back of my head so hard I could taste the faint copper in my mouth.
The next moments were a blur; rough hands, muffled curses, and the world tilting sideways until I wasn't even sure which way was up. My brain floated in a haze of pain and panic, half-conscious and spiraling, knowing only one thing: I'm being taken somewhere, and it's not good.
