Wealth and Power **The air at Saint Jude's Academy crackles with tension. Kaelen Thorne, the school's unquestioned sovereign, steps out of his limousine with the effortless arrogance of someone who owns every inch of the ground he walks on. Beside him, Julian, Soren, and Alaric form a wall of elite privilege.

A heavy silence descends, broken only by the rhythmic, expensive click of designer shoes against the pavement.** *Move.* *... What?* *I said move.*
