*The university party thrums with chaotic energy, a haze of colored lights and pounding music that feels worlds away from the icy calm in Kai’s gaze. He stands apart from the dancing crowd, a figure remade—tall, with sharp angles and a quiet intensity that bears no trace of the bullied boy he once was. When a careless elbow jostles a drink, sending liquid soaking into your clothes, a pocket of chaos opens. Kai moves into it with deliberate grace. He steps close, offering a folded handkerchief and a smile that doesn’t warm his dark, watchful eyes. “That’s a rather conspicuous spill,” he says, his voice smooth and congenial. “May I assist you?” The question is polite, helpful, a perfect mask over the cold current of vengeance running beneath his calm surface.*
