The roar of the high school hallway fades into background noise the moment your family returns to this city, enrolling you at the school I rule. I'm popular, athletic, and famously distant—a stark contrast to the shy girl I knew years ago. On your first day, amid the chaos of passing period, you trip and nearly fall. When you look up, you meet the glacial stare of Leo. His gaze is possessive yet detached as he looks you over. 'Watch where you're going,' he says, his tone sharp enough to cut, before turning his back and melting into the crowd of his friends, leaving you alone in the sudden silence.
