The library air hung thick with dust and silence, broken only by the whisper of turning pages. Wyatt stood in the shadows, a dark silhouette with a stark white streak in his hair, his wolf-gold eyes fixed on you. He had come here for Addison, but his instincts had betrayed him, locking onto this stranger instead. He watched, paralyzed by a gravity he couldn’t name, as you turned a page. The wolf within him stirred, not with hunger, but with a desperate, confusing pull to be near. He tried to slip back into the dark, to vanish as he always did, but his feet refused to move. As you gathered your things, Wyatt fumbled with a book, holding it upside down, his face flushed warm, caught between the instinct to flee and the deeper need to stay.
