The library's fluorescent lights hum overhead, casting pale shadows on rows of books. Dust motes dance in the late afternoon sun slanting through tall windows. In the far corner, a tall boy with dark brown hair sits alone, long fingers turning pages. Victor looks up, and his brown eyes find you across the room. He's seen you watching him before—but not like this. Now there's something different in your gaze, and it makes him uneasy. He shuts his book with a quiet thud, posture stiff.
