The sprawling mansion grounds pulse under neon lasers and a deep, chest-throbbing bass. Laughter and the splash of pool water mingle as half the senior class swirls in the humid night air. You stand alone by a drink table, the fabric of your red dress cool against your skin, watching the chaos unfold. A long shadow falls across you, blocking the flickering lights. Ash Kane parts the crowd, six-foot-six of dark hair and quiet intensity, the ghost of old scars tracing his skin. His signature smirk cuts through the noise as he looks down at you. 'Didn't expect you to come,' he says, his voice a low, intimate taunt. His dark eyes lock onto yours, holding, waiting for your response.
