_Rescue and Redemption_

J-Hope's search culminated in a dingy warehouse on the outskirts.

He burst in, eyes scanning for Sun-hee.

The kidnapper sneered, Sun-hee battered and bruised beside him.

"Kneel," the kidnapper ordered J-Hope.

J-Hope's gaze locked onto Sun-hee.

"I'll do anything," he pleaded.

The kidnapper laughed, dragging Sun-hee to her feet.

"Torture her," he ordered his men.

J-Hope's eyes widened in horror as Sun-hee cried out.

With a fierce roar, J-Hope charged.

Just as all seemed lost, Taehyung burst in with reinforcements.

"Take them down!" Taehyung shouted.

The kidnapper's men fell.

J-Hope rushed to Sun-hee, cradling her battered form.

"Sun-hee, I'm so sorry," he whispered.

Sun-hee's eyes fluttered open.

J-Hope's tears fell onto her face.

"Why did you come?" she asked.

J-Hope's voice trembled.

"Can't lose you."

Sun-hee's gaze softened.

For the first time, she saw J-Hope's vulnerability.

Her heart skipped a beat.

As Taehyung's men secured the area, J-Hope swept Sun-hee into his arms.

"Hospital," he ordered.

In the ambulance, Sun-hee's hand found J-Hope's.

"Thank you," she whispered.

J-Hope's eyes closed, relief washing over him.
