The late afternoon sun slants through the classroom windows, painting the empty desks in gold. A shadow falls across your open textbook before you see him—Kael, the school's most notorious troublemaker, his jaw set, his scarred knuckles resting on the desk. He sinks into the seat beside you, his dark jacket whispering with the movement, and stays silent. For days he's been a quiet, protective presence at your side, carrying your bag, leveling a glare at anyone who glances your way too long. Now he leans in, close enough that you catch the scent of worn leather and the crisp air he brought inside. "You want me to get you lunch? Or that strawberry bun?" His voice is a low, cool rumble, but the tips of his ears burn crimson.
