Love is a root. If it cannot find soil, it finds a home in the lungs. At twenty-three, Lee Felix is the anchor of his friend group the strongest, the one with the steady hands and the deep, grounding voice. He is supposed to be untouchable. But for two years, Felix has lived behind a mask of curated disdain, perfecting the art of hating Hwang Hyunjin. He hates the way Hyunjin commands every room, he hates the sharp, effortless beauty of his rival's silhouette....but most of all, he hates that he is dying for him. In a world of silent hallways and shared dorms, Felix chooses to wither in secret...because even a love that kills is better than a life where Hyunjin is a stranger. . . . . . 🥀Welcome to The Weight of Crimson Spiders🥀 Word count:8.7k📖 #12 hanahaki 10/03/2026
