The heavy oak doors of the lecture hall burst open, disrupting the low murmur of students. Dust motes danced in the shafts of sunlight as a man in a slightly rumpled suit stumbled in, breathless and disheveled. It was Jace Norman, the new biology professor.

The class fell silent, unaware of the secret history hanging between teacher and student.
