As soon as Yuno turned his back, I bolted. My heart was pounding, and my thoughts were a mess. What was that? Why did Yuno touch me like that? It wasn’t normal it wasn’t right.
For the first time in a long time, I felt something I hadn’t felt in years: fear. Not the kind of fear I usually felt when I was in control, when I knew what I was doing. This was different. It was the fear of the unknown, the fear of being caught off guard.
I needed to clear my head. I needed to think.
I left the agency, heading straight for my usual spot a quiet café hidden away from the busy streets. As I sat down, I tried to make sense of what had just happened.
Yuno. What was his deal? Why was he so interested in me? And why did his touch feel so…wrong?
I had dealt with people like this before, people who were drawn to me for reasons they couldn’t explain. But Yuno was different. He was more persistent, more invasive.
And for some reason, I couldn’t stop thinking about him.
