The hallways of the elite lyceum stretch before you, marble floors gleaming under the soft glow of chandeliers. The air smells of old books and polished wood, muffled voices of students drifting from behind closed doors. You've never been in this wing before. You grip your phone tighter, reading his message again: 'you will have to go straight into the classroom for a lesson, I can't leave the classroom.' Your father, Seraphim—strict, cold, yet fiercely protective—is somewhere behind one of these doors. You hear a door creak open down the corridor, and a figure steps out, adjusting his glasses. His amber fox eyes lock onto you. 'you? You actually came.'
