They continued to hover around me. My eyes were closed, but I could feel all of them staring, wondering, worrying, and possibly still trying not to lunge at one another. And then a few minutes passed and it seemed they thought I had fallen asleep. I kind of almost did, except a part of me remained awake long enough to hear the creak of the wooden floor, or the subtle scrape of a chair being pulled, then the sound of simultaneous deep sighs nearby. And then… “I didn’t expect this…” Luca said quietly. “None of us did, I presume.” Gavin murmured. There was silence for a bit and then I heard Harley speak. “This bond, this whole thing, is all too new for her, for us. It’s pulling too hard and if it’s affecting us, it’s affecting her even more. I believe that’s why she’s like this… drained, tired, whatever else.” “And how the hell would you know that?” Gavin asked, clearly still ready to fight, but I could sense the curiosity and suspicion in his voice. There was a sligh

More students began to gather around us, obviously intrigued by what was going on, or what was about to happen. I could tell that for the first time ever, Eva, the Academy’s notorious queen bee, was about to be put in her place. “E– excuse me? What did you just say to me? You know, just because you’re hot or whatever, does not mean you can order me around. I mean, who the hell are you, anyway?” Eva scoffed as she straightened her back and lifted her chin, trying to not look like she was actually terrified. Her minions at the back were also visibly shaken and honestly? I may or may not be enjoying this. Harley proudly scoffed, not a single sign that he was intimidated. “You don’t need to know who I am. What you need is to learn some manners or else–” “Or else what? What are you going to do, nobody? Do you know who my father is?!” Eva was furious as she stomped her feet on the ground and threw daggers at Harley through her eyes. I noticed Harley was about to move, but Luca

ALPHA GAVIN “She was what?!” Luca’s voice carried through the open hall like a fired arrow. I didn’t look up from my tray, already expecting the aftermath of what happened just a couple of hours ago. “On top of you,” he said again, sliding into the booth across from me. “Literally. On top. Gym class, the hall. You. Her. Gravity. Sparks. The works.” He grabbed my phone, started typing something, then pushed it toward me. And there it was, a photo somewhat blurry but unmistakable: Alessi half-collapsed on top of me, my hand still bracing her back. Someone had taken it from the bleachers. Probably one of those gossip-crazed students with too much free time and a social media following dedicated to spreading rumors in the Academy. I couldn’t help it, though. I stared at the photo a little too long. “Gotta say, for someone who claims to be emotionally detached,” Luca said, “your hand placement suggests otherwise.” “I caught her. That’s all.” Luca smirked. “You caught fe

It had been a full day since gym class and the whole… Gavin thing. And somehow, I still hadn’t stopped thinking about it. Not just the way he caught me, twice, or the almost-kiss that made my lungs stop working. But the way he pulled away. Like he was afraid. Of me. Of himself. I told myself it didn’t matter. That I shouldn’t care. That I was better off not diving into the feelings that made my chest ache and my head spin. And yet… I still found myself glancing over at him when I had the chance. Watching the way his jaw clenched when he thought no one was looking. The way his fingers flexed absently as if he was remembering something. Like he was remembering me. After my last class, I stopped by the library to return a book. Unexpectedly, I noticed Gavin’s bag on the desk in the corner where he usually sat. He always had the same setup: old notebook, headphones next to his phone, a spare hoodie that still smelled faintly like cedarwood and something darker. I set

Moving out wasn’t supposed to make me feel like I was some sort of failure. Except it did. Worse, I hated doing it when it felt like I was packing up pieces of a life I barely got to live. And though the dorm wasn’t really all sunshine and rainbows, I still tried to make it mine. I had added some colorful banners I made myself and a few cutout pictures from old magazines. I was set on staying here for the entire school year. Set on having a nosy neighbor and one that gave me the stink eye every time we passed by each other. Now, there was just a room with a bare mattress, an almost broken desk drawer, and the faint scent of strawberry ice cream from the candle I wasn’t even allowed to use. “Need me to grab anything else?” Luca asked as he looked around the room. He had ditched the Academy blazer and his sleeves were rolled to his elbows. Of course, muscles and veins are on full display. Don’t even get me started on the thoughts I’ve had to suppress since I saw sweat
