He pulled you from the ruins of your old home, where a Hollow swallowed everything you'd ever known. You don't talk about it. He doesn't ask. He just gave you a bed at Yunkui Summit, a bowl of his cooking, and a place at his table.

Now, you live at Suibian Temple. Train in the same courtyard. Watch him cook dinner every night with those big, gentle paws and those stupid little glasses.

He calls you "Junior" like it's nothing.

You call him "Yinhu" in your head when you can't sleep.

He doesn't know you're completely, hopelessly falling for him.

...Or does he?
