Stephanie’s POV:

Morning didn’t come any faster than usual, but it came eventually. As the first rays of sunlight seeped through the curtains, I forced myself out of bed. Today was the day of the Rank Duel Challenge (RDC), and the weight of that knowledge sat heavy on my chest.

After a quick shower, I dressed for the challenge. I chose black leggings and a black crop singlet, opting for something that would allow me to move freely. Slipping on my black sneakers, I tied my hair into a neat bun.

    Stephanie’s POV: My heart skipped a beat. The air rushed from my lungs in a sharp gasp, and my knees weakened beneath me. I clutched the strap of my handbag, gripping it so tightly my fingers hurt, as if it could keep me upright. But my thoughts were already spinning. I hadn’t expected to see them. Not now. Not today. Not after twenty-one days of agonizing silence. I tried to steady myself, to gather my scattered thoughts and pretend I was strong. It was useless. My legs trembled beneath me, and I was suddenly afraid I might crumple onto the floor. Their presence was doing something terrifying to me—body and mind alike. I stood frozen near the doorway, unable to look away. It was as though a spell had settled over me, holding me there. Seeing them again felt like seeing them for the first time. The mate bond surged through me, raw and overwhelming, like a wave crashing over my head. They looked different now. More dangerous. And undeniably striking. Tyler stood at the center,

    Stephanie's POV: Tomorrow might be different. That was the little lie I kept telling myself, day after day. But days turned into weeks, and reality finally crashed down on me. Three whole weeks passed, and neither Aiden nor Caden ever showed up at school. It wasn't just school, though; I didn't hear a single word from any of them altogether. No phone calls. No text messages. Absolutely nothing. No matter how many times I picked up my phone throughout the day, staring blankly at the dark screen and hoping for a notification, it remained completely quiet. Eventually, the silence became too heavy to bear. Not being able to take the agonizing guessing game anymore, I swallowed my pride and decided to ask around. I needed to know if they were okay. When the news finally traveled back to me, I heard they were doing just fine. They were living their lives normally. Honestly, it was supposed to be good news. I had spent weeks worrying sick about them, and I had even swallowed my pride

    Stephanie’s POV: I stood near the edge of the rooftop, resting my hands on the cold concrete railing. From up here, the entire university campus looked like a busy ant farm. I stared down at the sea of students pouring out of the main buildings, laughing, talking, and hurrying toward the gates. They were all ready to go home and enjoy their evening. I looked down at my wristwatch. The hands pointed directly at 5:00 PM. I let out a heavy breath, watching the glass face of my watch catch the dimming sunlight. For a while, I honestly thought today would never end. Every single minute had dragged on like an eternity. My lectures had ended at 2:00 PM, which meant I had been standing on this exact rooftop for three long hours. I stayed up here because it gave me a clear view of the entire courtyard and the parking lot. I had been waiting, hoping to see two familiar faces show up, but they never did. Today was just a painful repeat of yesterday. Aiden and Caden didn't show up to school

    Stephanie’s POV:“Dringgg!”The sound of my alarm made my eyes snap open, but all I was met with was darkness. I had forgotten that I was wearing my sleep mask.The alarm kept ringing, and I stretched my hand towards the side table to switch it off. Unfortunately, I missed it completely and knocked it over instead.Thud!The alarm fell to the floor, but that didn't stop it from ringing."Oh, come on!" I groaned.I stretched my hand towards the sound, trying to locate my phone. However, I reached too far and lost my balance.Thud!I landed on the floor with a groan, sending an aching pain through my body.For a few seconds, I simply lay there, wondering how my morning had managed to become so terrible in less than a minute. I finally removed the sleep mask from my eyes and blinked against the light coming through the curtains.I was lying on my back, staring at the ceiling.What a way to start my day.I let out a tired sigh before turning to reach for my phone. I switched off the alarm

    Stephanie's POV:As soon as I reached my room, I closed the door behind me and let out a frustrated sigh. I walked over to the bed and sat down, trying to calm myself.I took a deep breath, inhaling slowly before letting it out.It didn't help.My encounter with Ares kept replaying in my mind. I knew it wasn't a big deal. At least, it shouldn't have been. I shouldn't let a few rude words get to me, especially when they came from someone like him.But no matter how hard I tried to push the memory away, it kept bothering me."I gave you a little attention and you are already looking for something more. Don't get ahead of yourself. It's not going to happen."His words played in my head again, and I could feel my anger rising all over.I clenched my jaw.The nerve!I stood up from the bed and began pacing around the room, running my fingers through my hair.What was that even about?He literally made it sound as though I was throwing myself at him. As though I had gone looking for him bec

    Ares's POV:As soon as I couldn't feel her presence anymore, I stopped punching the bag and let out a long breath.I stood there for a moment, staring at the bag as it swung gently in front of me. My hands were beginning to ache, but I barely noticed. My mind was somewhere else, occupied by thoughts I had been trying so hard to push away.The discussion I had with my brothers earlier that morning was still fresh in my head.Alaric had told me to stop trying to win Stephanie over or get close to her because it was no longer necessary. He had made it clear that I needed to keep my distance and focus on the plan.I could still remember the look on his face when he said those words.His eyes.They were filled with disappointment. He had looked down at me as though I were beneath him, as though I didn't deserve to be standing in front of him.I hated that look.It wasn't the first time he had looked at me that way, but it never got any easier. The last time had been years ago, after I had

    Caden's POV:The morning sunlight filtered through the curtains, casting a soft golden glow across my room. It was warm, comforting even, but my mind was anything but calm.

    Caden's POV:The silence stretched between us, thick and suffocating, like a storm cloud pregnant with unshed rain. It was the kind of silence that wasn’t empty, it was heavy with unspoken words, emotions too tangled to unravel in the moment. The weight of it pressed on my chest, making it hard to
