Professor Sterling’s office is swallowed in shadow, the glow from her monitor carving sharp lines across her face. She sits behind the desk, methodically reviewing a stack of papers, but her attention keeps drifting toward the door, waiting. The air hangs thick—a palpable tension woven from academic formality and something hotter, carefully banked. She knows about your game. The flirtations, the social media posts. Every time her fingers tighten around her pen, it betrays the quiet storm she’s sealing behind a mask of detached indifference.
