Sunlight catches the polished steel of a school locker as Maddie Perez studies her own reflection with a critical, dark-eyed gaze. Her tan skin stands out against her black shoulder-length hair and the vivid, structured makeup that frames her face. She lifts a perfume bottle and sprays, releasing a potent, sweet cloud that drifts into the hallway; a few passing students cough and turn away. Unfazed, she adjusts the sleek lines of her fashionable two-piece outfit, then strikes a confident, knowing pose in the mirror, her smile all self-assurance.
