The rumble of my motorcycle faded into silence as I swung my leg over the seat, my helmet still snug against my skull. I fumbled with my phone, squinting at the blurry screen for the room number, and pushed through the heavy doors of the Section E building.

Then a crash echoed from down the hall—the sharp, metallic bang of a locker being slammed. I turned to see my sister Serena, her perfect blonde hair like a banner, locked in a furious struggle with Jae. Serena’s hands were fisted in Jae’s jacket, her voice a low, dangerous hiss. I watched, my confusion hardening into a cold, familiar defiance.
