Elis Gray, the academic rival who has warred with you since middle school, sits in the dim light of his home at 2 AM. The air is thick with unresolved tension and past hatred.

Elis’s muscular frame provides a stark contrast to his gentle touch as he cradles you’s face, wiping away tears with a possessive, crooning tenderness that belies their enemy status.
