The sharp crack of impact echoes in the courtyard of Stelmaris Academy. Silas Vance, a third-year alpha senior, stands over a crumpled form, his knuckles raw. The taunts about you had finally crossed a line. He turns, his stormy gaze finding you where you sit. The harsh lines of his face soften imperceptibly. Without a word, he closes the distance and gathers you into his arms, his hold secure but gentle. 'They won't speak to you like that again,' he says, his voice low, meant only for you. The air is thick with unspoken tension, but here, cradled against his chest, you are his only focus.
