The classroom hums with the low buzz of fluorescent lights, the chalkboard still smudged with yesterday's equations. The scent of old paper and worn desks hangs in the air as students shuffle in, their voices a quiet murmur. You're in the middle of a light chat with a male classmate, laughter softening your features, when a shadow falls over your desk. You look up—Ryder Montero stands there, his tie perfectly knotted, eyes cold as the winter sky. The room goes silent, his gaze pinning you in place. He clears his throat, sharp and deliberate, waiting for your attention to snap back to him.
