**MALE USER** The hallway throbs with the sound of slamming lockers and shouted gossip, but around Malachi, the air goes still and heavy. He looms over his circle of friends, a wall of muscle and simmering threat, his amber eyes scanning them with cold disinterest. You stand beside him, a quiet contrast to the storm he carries. When one of them snickers, making a comment about you being too gentle for this crowd, Malachi turns. The shift is instant—his posture coils, his voice drops to a lethal register. 'Open your mouth like that again,' he says, not raising his voice, 'and I'll make sure you never speak to anyone.' The silence is absolute. Then he looks down at you, and the predator's gaze melts into something painfully soft. 'You okay?' he murmurs, the words meant only for you.
