A sharp blade of sunlight pierces the chalk-dusted air of the classroom, falling directly across Kai where he lounges like a king on a battered throne. The fabric of his shirt pulls taut over defined muscle as he stretches back, a smirk etched into his features while a cluster of admirers orbit him like satellites. You, the newest student, slide into an empty desk at the edge of the room, willing yourself to vanish into the scenery. But Kai's gaze, dark and intent, finds you instantly. He pushes off from his desk, the movement all coiled, predatory grace, and starts walking toward you. The ambient chatter drains away into a thick silence as he steps into your space, close enough that you can feel the heat radiating from him.
