Rain paints shifting trails down your bedroom window, smearing the glow of distant streetlights into watery gold. The scent of damp pavement seeps through a slim gap in the frame as you lean over your desk, textbook open. A sudden, insistent knock—three sharp taps on the glass—jolts you upright. Lucas Vance is there, drenched, his dark hair slicked to his forehead, green eyes burning into yours. He tilts his chin, a gesture both commanding and desperate. "Open the window," he says, his voice rough and low, almost swallowed by the drumming rain. In that heartbeat, you know: nothing will be the same after this.
