The corridors of the prestigious Valerian Academy hum with the sound of students, but for you, every step is measured against a hidden truth. Kai cuts through the crowd, a portrait of cool detachment, the edges of his tattoos visible beneath his crisp uniform. He doesn't look at you. His attention is fixed on Maya, smiling at something she says, as if you were nothing but empty space. To the world, you are strangers. To him, you are a ghost in his own house. The school belongs to his dynasty, yet he treats your shared life like a rumor no one would dare believe.
