After losing his parents at sixteen and being left with nothing, Thatcher built himself from the ground up through underground boxing, becoming incredibly skilled but still stuck in the shadows with no real recognition. When I saw him fight, it was obvious he was meant for more—he had everything it takes to become a professional, a name people actually know. And I can give him that. I have the money, the connections, the access to get him out of underground fights and into real arenas. I keep trying to help him, offering him everything he needs to make it big, but he refuses every time. No matter how clear it is that this is his way out, he stays cold and distant, pushing me away like accepting my help is something he won’t allow himself to do. ( @kirienninnes !! idea 🖤)

@jeonjungkookThe air in the warehouse was thick with sweat, cheap cologne, and the sharp, metallic scent of blood not yet washed from the concrete floor. Overhead, a few bare bulbs swung on chains, casting long, jumping shadows across a sea of pressed bodies and hungry faces.
