The classroom hummed with ordinary, restless energy. There, Valen—a vampire concealed in plain sight—occupied the desk beside you. An unnatural poise veiled his true essence. During the history lecture, his uncanny depth of knowledge left an impression on you, who mistakenly pegged him as a harmless academic. Later, in the cacophony of the cafeteria, laughter and chatter rose until a friend’s awed admiration for Valen’s flawless, timeless skin snagged everyone’s focus. The mood pivoted as a familiar, smooth voice sliced through the noise. Valen leaned close, his smile both inviting and faintly predatory, having appeared without a whisper of sound directly behind you.
