Ice Queens Need Love TooCHAPTER SEVENTEEN-EXTRAThe WatcherThe empty classroom smelled faintly of nail polish remover and cheap vanilla candles, just a sugary cover for the bitterness beneath. They lounged on the edge of their bed, one foot bouncing against the carpet, scrolling through their phone.Post after post. Snippets of hallway chatter they’d nudged into motion. One of them was a blurry shot of Aurora alone by the lockers. The watcher opened the comments under it, and the watcher smiled as they read. They decided to read one out loud A sly comment about Knox “finally getting what he wanted.” Beneath that one, fifty more followed after. The watcher preened. These were threads of their work drifting through the school’s group chats like oil on water.Perfect. Extremely satisfactory too. Now they would wait for the results to yield, in utter content bliss. The watcher grinned, tossing the phone onto the desk and sinking back into her chair with a sigh. For once, the balance

Ice Queens Need Love TooCHAPTER SEVENTEENKnox's POVI caught her just as the last bell rang, slipping out of English like she couldn’t get away fast enough. She moved with that quiet precision she always had, binder tucked close, eyes fixed straight ahead, except today there was an edge to it, like she was bracing for something she couldn’t quite see.I didn’t go straight to her. Pushing would only make her dig her heels in deeper. Instead, I walked a little ahead, close enough for her to notice but not so close she’d feel cornered.“Hey,” I said, keeping my tone light, like the rumors weren’t clawing at the back of my brain. “You headed to the library, or making a break for the bus?”Her eyes flicked toward me, quick and wary, then away again. “The library,” she said, the word clipped. "I need to catch up on a few topics. "Alright. So she wasn’t ready for anything more than that."Okay," I slowed my stride until we were side by side, careful not to crowd her space. “Do you mind if

Ice Queens Need Love TooCHAPTER SIXTEENAurora's POVThe hallway between the science labs and the library buzzed louder than usual for a Thursday. Voices tangled together, sharp and quick, like bees stirred from a hive.I hugged my binder to my chest and slipped out of chemistry, still smelling faintly of ethanol. Halfway down the hall, I heard it .My name, followed by a burst of muffled laughter.I froze mid-step.Two sophomores hovered near the trophy case, heads bent close. When they noticed me, one fumbled with her phone; the other ducked her head, but not before I caught the flicker of guilt in her eyes, and the way they darted toward Knox’s locker.A prickle ran up my neck. All though this behavior wasn't new to me, it was really odd now. I started walking again, slow, deliberate. If they wanted a reaction, they weren’t going to get it. Still, the air felt heavier with every step, thick with the weight of whispers I couldn’t quite make out.That was until I could.“...said she

Ice Queens Need Love TooCHAPTER FIFTEEN-EXTRA 2The watcherThe late-afternoon light slanted through the high windows of the commons, throwing long amber bars across scuffed linoleum. Clusters of students sprawled on couches or hovered near the vending machines, voices weaving together in a low, restless hum.From a seat tucked back against the wall, they watched. Knox leaned against the frame of the science wing door, easy smile tugging at his mouth as Aurora approached. She kept her gaze cool, almost aloof, but there was a fraction of a second, barely there when her shoulders softened, like she was letting herself breathe near him.That tiny shift snagged in the watcher’s chest like a hook. So she hadn’t learned after last time. She was letting him in.The notebook in front of them blurred. They forced themselves to focus, flipping a blank page and uncapping a pen as cover. Inside, a different current moved: sharp, electric, dangerous.They rose slowly, slipping into the current

Ice Queens Need Love TooCHAPTER FIFTEEN-EXTRAThird Person POVThe science building had gone quiet, its fluorescent lights humming dully above rows of empty tables. Most students had already fled into the evening, but someone lingered in the corner of the hall, back pressed to the wall where shadows softened the edges of their outline.They hadn’t meant to stay. Something had made them stay...forced them to stay. Curiosity had rooted them there. Not only curiosity, but the low, steady murmur of Knox’s voice as well. What could we say, the young man was not only handsome, but mesmerizing as well. He was charming, and pleasant to look at. Through the narrow glass pane of the classroom door, they caught sight of him. A smile began to spread across their face, until they realized he wasn’t alone. Aurora, the Ice Queen, was inside with him as well. The person nearly hissed, but controlled her emotions not to blow her cover. She couldn't let them know she was watching. Aurora, obliviou

Ice Queens Need Love TooCHAPTER FIFTEENAurora's POVBy Thursday, the week’s rhythm had started to settle, but nothing was new. They were all just the same patterns. Classes, kid's chatter and gossip, and not so surprisingly,Knox's ever growing popularity and the whispers that followed him down the hall. When we crossed paths, I tried to keep my head down, but somehow my focus always drifted toward him. It didn't matter where we were. The moment he walked into a room, my head would spring up. It always left a familiar but yet strange feeling in my heart. Now, in English, I sat with my notebook open, copying lines from the board. The teacher droned about old century English and French plays, paper rustled, someone’s pen clicked too loudly, and so many other sounds that buzzed in the room. Out of the corner of my eye, Knox slid into the empty desk beside mine. He didn’t ask if it was taken. He just moved with quiet certainty, like he’d known I wouldn’t send him away.Well, not tha
