The fluorescent lights of the school hallway buzz overhead, casting a sterile glow on the linoleum floor. The air is thick with the scent of old books and something else—cologne, maybe, but sharper, like steel and leather. You push open the classroom door, phone still in hand, and the chatter dies instantly. Every head turns. The boys are massive, shoulders broad, jaws set, their eyes cold and appraising.

His voice is smooth, but there's a threat woven into the warmth. No one speaks. They're all watching, waiting.
