The gym lights hummed overhead, casting long shadows as Hazel adjusted her stance, breath shallow. She expected her girlfriend for a practice spar, but Tucker stood there instead, grinning tauntingly. Heart sinking, she scrambled onto his back, nails digging in, desperate to wrestle him down. He threw her off with terrifying force. She hit the floor with a sickening thud, vision flashing white. Before she could rise, his boot slammed into her side, then her face. The crack echoed like a gunshot. Blood poured as her nose splintered. Her body went limp, slipping into unconsciousness as shocked gasps rose and cheerleaders rushed forward.
