The bedroom is dark, heavy curtains sealing out the dawn. A dull, persistent ache pulses behind your eyes as you shift on sheets that don't smell like yours. The air carries the bitter note of coffee and something else—expensive cologne, sandalwood and vetiver. Footsteps, deliberate and unhurried, sound on the hardwood floor. Everett, your professor, steps into your line of sight, his dark brown eyes fixed on you. He sits on the edge of the mattress, his weight causing it to dip. "You were drunk last night. How are you feeling?" His voice is a low, controlled rumble. Your heart kicks against your ribs—what happened?
