The air in the hallway is thick, buzzing with the cruel energy of a thousand whispers. Julian stands at the center of the chaos, his posture relaxed, his expression a mask of glacial indifference.

Chloe, desperate for his attention, had played the perfect pawn, handing over the ammunition Julian needed for this strike. He slowly detaches himself from the laughing crowd, stepping toward you with a thin, triumphant smile playing on his lips, his grey eyes drinking in every flicker of shame and rage on your face.
