ARES’ POVThe city lights flickered past us as I drove through the shadowed streets of Los Angeles. The scent of concrete and late-night tacos hung in the air, mixed with a distant saltiness from the ocean breeze. The occasional palm tree whizzed by, casting fleeting shadows across the dashboard.From the corner of my eye, I kept stealing glances at Noah.His head was leaned out the window, his short hay fluttering with the night wind like he was some carefree teenager out on a midnight joyride. As if that wasn't enough, he stuck his hand out too, letting it slice through the air. The city was sleeping, but Noah was alive—too alive.“You really want to go on that school trip?” I asked, my voice calm but firm, slicing through the heavy silence between us.There was a pause. Then his voice came, softer than usual. “Yeah,” he said, almost like an exhale. “It’s not just a school trip to me. It’s like… a breather from all this. From my brothers. From my messed-up life.”He turned toward me

NOAH’S POVThe first thing I felt wasn’t the warmth of the sun slipping through the blinds, it was pain. A throbbing, full-blown war in my skull."Ugh," I groaned, clutching my head. It felt like someone had dropped a goddamn stereo speaker on it during the night. I couldn’t move right away. I just lay there, breathing in the sharp scent of clean linen and something else—cool and earthy, like the aftermath of snow.Wait… where the hell am I?The events of last night were fogged out like an overexposed film reel. All I remembered was Professor Rex handing me a glass of wine, with that smug, dangerous glint in his eye.Okay. I think I understand why the throbbing headache. I must have gotten drunk.Oh God.Did I tell him anything? That can't beI pushed myself off the bed, nearly tripping over my own legs as I dragged myself to the bathroom. Turning the faucet on, I splashed my face with cold water and stared into the mirror. My hair was a full-blown disaster—stuck-up strands and pillow

NOAH'S POV“Gavin, hurry up!” I yelled, gripping the handle above the car door like my life depended on it. My heart was racing faster than the car. Penny had just sent a picture of her and Nathan at Siege’s private airport. I hadn’t told them yet that my brothers had finally changed their minds and were letting me go for the school trip I wanted to surprise them—dramatically, of course.“I’m not gonna be the reason Lucas locks you up in that house like Rapunzel again,” Gavin snickered, his hand lazily draped over the steering wheel. “Just call your friends and tell them to stall the flight.”“Ugh, you’re not helping. Just drive faster!” I snapped, ignoring the smug grin tugging at the corner of his lips.The moment we swerved into the private terminal driveway, Gavin hit the brakes. “Here we are, your royal highness,” he announced, like he hadn’t just nearly murdered us with his terrible driving.I flung the car door open before he could even park properly. “Gavin! My bags!” I shoute

NOAH'S POVA low groan slipped from my lips as the morning sun crawled across the hotel window, stabbing directly into my eyes like it had a personal grudge. My stomach grumbled loud enough to make me wince. Damn it. I hadn’t eaten properly yesterday. Lucas had made breakfast before we left, but I was in too much of a rush to even take a bite. Now, my stomach was throwing a full-on tantrum.I blinked the sleep out of my eyes and glanced around. Sebastian’s bed was empty. Of course it was. He was probably out being annoyingly perfect while I looked like a half-dead raccoon.Dragging myself from the bed, I shuffled into the bathroom and splashed cold water on my face. Bathing was not an option, not while my stomach was holding a riot. I threw on a clean T-shirt, ran my fingers through my tangled mess of hair, and left the room, bouncing a little as I walked through the hallway toward Penny’s room. The plan was simple—grab Penny, find Nathan, and inhale some pancakes before my insides d

NOAH’S POVThe softness beneath me felt unfamiliar—too gentle, too clean. I blinked against the golden light pouring through the curtains, mind foggy, muscles oddly relaxed. For a second, I didn’t even know where I was.Then two sharp green eyes stared down at me.I jolted upright. “Penny!”My voice cracked, and I nearly headbutted her in my haste. Without thinking, I lunged forward and wrapped my arms around her, burying my face in her shoulder.God, I missed her.Not even a full day had passed, but the silence she left behind had pressed on my chest like a weight. It was too still, too empty. As though something essential had been scooped out of me.She didn’t hesitate—just hugged me back, warm and tight, like she always did. Penny never cared about the rules. Never made things complicated. Whether I was Noah the boy or the girl I really was, she loved me anyway.When I pulled back, I found her studying my face with concern.“Where were you?” I asked, breathless.“Nathan said you ha
