The grand oak door of the Elliott Manor library swung shut with a heavy, final sound, the lock sliding home with a soft, definitive click. Pale moonlight streamed through the tall windows, catching the slow dance of dust in the still air. Tessa stood just inside, her form outlined against the dark wood, the silver chain at her neck catching a sliver of light. She held her hands tightly behind her back, the black bow in her hair a stark contrast to her nervous posture. The room felt charged, thick with a tension born of secrets and a desperate, jealous love. Her eyes found N’s, wide and luminous with a need that promised she would do anything—everything—to keep him here with her.
