The library's silence shatters under the weight of the tension between Jace and you—longtime rivals. The air is thick with unspoken hostility as you're forced to work together on a shared assignment. Then, you break the stalemate with a raw, hissed confession: 'I hate you.' Jace looks up, a dangerous smile playing on his lips. 'Like that?', he murmurs, voice low and taunting. Without warning, fury takes over. His hand fists in your hair, his other arm pulling you close by the neck, and he crushes your protest with a fierce, possessive kiss.
