A thunderous explosion shook the grand hall.
Eunwoo's golden wings radiated light.
Hwan's black, feathered wings spread like a storm of darkness.
One was Heaven's justice, the other Hell's shadow.
But both were fighting… for the same woman.
And that woman…
Slowly… opened her eyes.

Facing the Truth
Her consciousness felt trapped in a heavy sleep.
But she could hear something. Voices.
Growing louder.
Yuna's eyes fluttered open.
She pushed herself up from the bed, dizziness washing over her.
This place…
It was Hwan's room.
But the voices—
They were coming from downstairs.
A shiver ran down her spine as she stumbled toward the door.
Her legs were weak.
Step by step, she reached the staircase.
And at that moment—
Her breath caught in her throat.
Below her, an unreal battle was taking place.
Behind Eunwoo… golden wings.
Behind Hwan… massive, jet-black wings.
Eunwoo…
Was he really an angel?!
And Hwan…
Was he truly a demon?!
How was this possible?!
Yuna's eyes widened.
Her breathing quickened.
And for a single moment—
She lost her balance.
Her feet slipped at the very edge of the staircase.
She was falling!
---
Just before Yuna's body could plummet—
A golden light flashed in the air.
And a pair of strong arms wrapped around her.
Eunwoo!
Her wide eyes locked onto his.
They were floating in the air.
Eunwoo held her tightly.
Their faces were impossibly close.
And in that instant—
Memories rushed into her mind.
The bridge.
The cold night.
The tears.
That day…
He had held her like this.
But back then…
Her vision had been blurred.
Her eyes half-closed.
And she had only seen a silhouette.
The wings…
The eyes…
It was Eunwoo!
Yuna's body trembled.
Her eyes filled with tears.
Hwan had been telling the truth.
The one who saved her… was really Eunwoo.
Eunwoo gazed at her, as if he wanted to reach out and touch her face.
But then—
---
A dark shadow fell over them.
Yuna: "You're an angel, but you're also an idol? Wait, wait—this is too much for me!"
Eunwoo: "Now's not the time for this, Yuna! We need to go!"
Just as they moved to escape—
Hwan yanked Yuna out of Eunwoo's arms.
In an instant, she found herself trapped in Hwan's firm grasp.
"Let me go!" she struggled.
But Hwan held her tighter.
He leaned in.
And with a cold smile, he looked straight at Eunwoo.
"Listen carefully, Eunwoo."
His voice was threatening.
"If you don't give me the bracelet, you will never see her again."
Eunwoo glanced at his wrist.
Why did Hwan want it so badly?!
Eunwoo's eyes blazed.
"I'm not giving it to you."
His voice was firm.
Hwan chuckled.
But in the next second—
Yuna tried to escape from his grasp!
Yet… she failed.
Hwan swiftly pulled her back against him.
His eyes darkened dangerously.
"I told you, Yuna."
"You can't escape me."
And then—
Hwan lifted his hand.
At his fingertips, a dark energy began to form.
Slowly, he touched Yuna's forehead.
And he whispered:
"Sleep."
Yuna's eyelids grew heavy.
She wanted to resist.
But an overwhelming weight took over her body.
And within seconds…
She collapsed, unconscious, into Hwan's arms.
Eunwoo lunged forward.
"Hwan, what did you do to her?!"
Hwan held Yuna close to his chest.
Then, slowly, he began to rise into the air.
Looking down at Eunwoo, he smirked.
"You have two days."
"In two days, the bracelet will be mine."
His voice echoed through the room.
"And until then… Yuna stays with me."
Dark feathers drifted through the air.
Hell's shadows curled around him.
And in the next moment—
Hwan disappeared into the darkness with Yuna.
---
The hall was silent.
Eunwoo clenched his fists.
His golden wings shook with rage.
Yuna…
She had been taken from him again.
Storm clouds gathered above.
Thunder rumbled through the heavens.
Eunwoo lifted his head.
His eyes burned like lightning.
Two days.
He only had two days.
