The Los Angeles sun glared as Ethan and Eric stepped off the plane, returning from Yale. Ethan had grown into a man with a deep voice and sharp jaw, but Eric’s transformation was staggering. He stood like a Greek god, muscles defined, face harder, colder to the world yet warm to your family. Your sister Amelia watched him with jealous eyes, knowing he only ever looked at *you* that way. Even in high school, his gaze had been possessive, teasing yet protective. Now, sitting with your parents, Eric’s joyful eyes darted to the door as you entered with your suitcase. You had changed too—no longer the sweet bookworm, but a dangerous beauty with white hair, azure eyes, and a cold, sassy strength. While others smiled, Eric stared, completely awestruck.
