CASSIAN

I should have gone to class. My students would be waiting, probably grateful for the reprieve when I didn't show up. Instead, I found myself walking toward the administrative wing, my footsteps echoing on the polished marble floors.

The scent of pine and something floral still clung to my jacket from the infirmary. Rae's scent. It shouldn't have affected me the way it did, but here I was, abandoning my responsibilities because I couldn't shake the image of her trying to hide her tears behind defiance.

The headmistress's office door was heavy oak, carved with intricate patterns. I knocked twice and waited.

"Come in."

Miyori Fox sat behind her massive desk, her hair pulled back in a perfect chignon. She looked up from her tablet with those unsettling violet eyes that seemed to see straight through you.

"Professor Rhys," she said, setting the device aside. "Shouldn't you be teaching Introduction to Supernatural Literature, or is it inter-species relations right about now?"

  • Reckless Royals of Nocturne Prep   Sick People Seek people 2

    CONRADThe laundry room in the basement smelled like detergent and fabric softener. I fed Rae's stained uniform into one of the washing machines, watching the brown tea stains disappear under the rushing water. The white shirt would probably never be the same, but at least she'd have something clean to wear tomorrow.I kept thinking about what she'd said upstairs. About how I didn't understand because I was privileged. About how Saraphina didn't kill herself. The way her voice had cracked when she talked about being alone, about just wanting to exist without being hunted.She wasn't entirely wrong. I didn't understand what it was like to be her. But the line would never be black and white. I knew what it was like to be different, to have people look at you like you were something they couldn't quite figure out. Something that didn't fit into their neat little categories. My father was the biggest contributor to that.The machine hummed as it filled with water. I leaned against the wal

    RAEKieran walked me back to my dorm, his hand steady on my elbow as we navigated the hallways. The iced tea had started to dry in my hair, making it sticky and matted against my scalp. My uniform clung to my skin in uncomfortable patches, the fabric stained brown and sweet-smelling.Conrad caught up to us halfway there, slightly out of breath like he'd been running. He fell into step beside me, and I could feel his eyes on my face."I'm sorry," he said quietly. "I don't know what happened back there. I just... froze."I didn't look at him. "I frankly do not care."The words came out harsher than I'd intended, but I was too tired to soften them. Conrad flinched like I'd slapped him."You do not have to feel like such a monster," I continued, my voice flat. "Because I get it. You are going out of your way to be kind to make space for me here. You are doing your best to be kind."I turned to look at Kieran then, taking in his rigid posture, the way his jaw was still clenched tight. "You

    RAEI asked three different people for directions to the prep room before I finally found it. Each one looked at me like I'd grown a second head, but they all said the same thing I already knew from my handbook: most people stayed there to refresh and talk before dinner. The last girl, a sophomore with perfectly straightened hair, actually wrinkled her nose when she spoke to me.The prep room was exactly what I'd expected from a place like Nocturne. The entirety of it was polished marble and gleaming mirrors, with clusters of girls touching up their makeup and adjusting their uniforms. The chatter died when I walked in, replaced by the kind of pointed silence that felt heavier than any noise.I found an empty corner and tried to look busy, fidgeting with my fingers while pretending to check my appearance in one of the smaller mirrors. The staring was immediate and obvious. Girls kept glancing at me through their reflections, whispering behind their hands. I caught fragments of convers

    RAEThe door clicked shut behind Kieran, and the silence that followed felt deafening. I stood there for a moment, my back pressed against the wood, trying to catch my breath. The takeout bag sat forgotten on my desk, steam still rising from whatever he'd brought me.I had just told him about Luca. About the mate bonds. The words had tumbled out before I could stop them, desperate and stupid and completely reckless. Now both of them would know things I wasn't ready to share, things I barely understood myself.I just wanted to get him off my back and nothing had more shock value than that.That was the only thing that saved me. He was too self-absorbed to handle the thought of sharing. Maybe it would keep him away, at least for a while. Maybe.My hands were shaking. I balled them into fists, pressing my knuckles against my thighs until the trembling stopped. This was not how I'd imagined my first day would end. Hell, this wasn't how I'd imagined any day would end.I pulled out my phone

  • Reckless Royals of Nocturne Prep   Welcome Committee

    ANNALISEThe prep room buzzed with the usual pre-dinner chatter. Girls clustered around the long mirrors, touching up lipstick and adjusting their hair before we all filed into the main dining hall. I sat at the center table, the prime spot that had been mine since sophomore year, watching the controlled chaos through the reflection in front of me.That's when I saw her slip in through the side door. I was surprised. Shocked even.She moved like she wanted to disappear, shoulders hunched, steps small. She picked the loneliest corner and sat at one of the smaller mirrors nobody ever used. I almost rolled my eyes. Still pretending she didn’t exist. But my gaze lingered anyway.A couple of boys passing the doorway glanced at her before looking away quickly. Nothing special, not really, but enough to twist something in my chest. Even pathetic things could draw attention if they were new."Look who's playing invisible again," I said, loud enough for the girls around me to hear. My voice ca

  • Reckless Royals of Nocturne Prep   The Firstchild

    CONRADThe knock on my door came shortly after lunch. I was sitting at my desk, trying to focus on the history essay that was due tonight, but my mind kept drifting to this morning. To Luca's rage. To the blood on his knuckles. To the way he'd grabbed me and slammed me against the wall like I was nothing."Mr. Firstchild," came the voice through the door. "Please report to the Headmistress's office immediately."My stomach dropped. I set down my pen and straightened my tie. Whatever this was about, it couldn't be good. Maybe Luca had gotten himself in more trouble. Maybe the Headmistress wanted to know how horrid his mntal health had become if he was even threatening Annalise.The walk to the administrative wing felt longer than usual. My footsteps echoed on the polished floors, and I found myself checking my appearance in every reflective surface I passed. Hair combed, uniform pressed, everything in its proper place. I'd learned early that presentation mattered at Nocturne. That fitt
