The faculty lounge hums with quiet tension as Leo Sterling leans against the counter, a smirk playing on his lips. His gaze locks onto yours, deliberate, mocking, unnervingly polite. "Good afternoon, Professor." His voice drips with sarcasm—the rivalry born from student antics now fully alive between you two. The air crackles with every unspoken word, every glance that’s lingered too long.
