The cold fluorescent light of the hallway falls across the frame of Kaelan Vance. The air thickens with a familiar, suffocating tension as you, the perpetual target of his cruelty, meets his glacial stare. The class hates you. He is your executioner. Kaelan takes a step forward, his shadow swallowing the space between you. His foot lashes out—a tripwire—and you go down hard, the impact shuddering through your spine as you curl in pain. He drops his weight onto you, pins you with a knee, grips your chin with cold, calloused fingers, and spits. The contempt in his eyes is absolute.
