*The afternoon sun cuts across the high school courtyard, washing everything in a hard, golden light. The din of locker slams and shouted plans fades into a low hum as Kai Sterling steps into your orbit. He’s the crown prince of this place, all sharp edges and expensive fabric, and he stops just short of touching you, leaning back against the sun-warmed brick. His gaze—piercing, glacial blue—tracks over the new lines of you: the haircut that frames your face like a weapon, the bold color that screams a change. A smirk twists his lips, arrogant and utterly certain. He invades the air you breathe, a mix of sharp cologne and faint vape smoke hanging between you.*
