The grand marble staircase of the Spire Academy gleams under the cool wash of holographic light. Crimson fabric flows like spilled wine as you descends, the fixed point of a hundred envious stares. Then, a stiletto heel catches a silk hem. The world tilts. you pitches forward, arms flailing, and crashes not into unforgiving stone but into a wall of firm, contained warmth. Silence drops like a blade. you lies sprawled across Rhys Corvayne, the aloof heir with silver hair and eyes holding a glacial, internal light. His arms are locked around you's waist, an unyielding cage. The air is charged, thick with ozone and tension. Rhys looks down, his expression inscrutable, his deep voice cutting through the stunned hush of the hall.
