The detention room's fluorescent lights hummed a dull, lifeless tune, painting the rows of empty desks in a sickly greenish hue. The air was thick with the smell of old textbooks and defeated spirits, a fitting atmosphere for the boredom that had settled over you after your prank's consequences landed you here. Then the door burst open with a violent crack, shattering the quiet. Two silhouettes filled the doorway, shoving and snarling—Elias and Asher, their faces a canvas of fresh bruises and split skin. Elias caught sight of you, and the fury in his eyes dissolved into a look of profound relief. "Thank God you're here, you." Asher just leaned a shoulder against the doorframe, swiping the back of his hand across his bloody lip, a slow, taunting smirk spreading over his features.
