“Powerful together…I like that.” ⸻ Scene 5 – Lingering Rivalry and Foreshadowing Even in their safe space, Harper knew Talia would find new ways to insert friction into campus life. The rivalry wasn’t over—but Harper and Emery’s alignment, emotional intimacy, and strategic control gave them an edge. The night ended with a final, lingering kiss, hands tracing the curves and edges of familiarity. Not urgent, not reckless—just trust, intimacy, and partnership. Outside, campus lights twinkled. Talia’s shadow lingered somewhere beyond, a reminder that not all battles were finished. But inside, Harper and Emery had reclaimed their space, their narrative, and each other.

"Better than old times. We're on the same side now." We fought together. My strength covering his speed. His strategy complementing my aggression. Eight years of rivalry had taught us each other's patterns. Now we used that knowledge to become a perfect team. A soldier came at us. Ben ducked low. I went high. We took him down in seconds. Another attacked from the left. I blocked. Ben struck. Perfect coordination. "We're good at this," Ben panted. "We always were. Just pointed at the wrong targets."

I didn’t want to, but my eyes moved anyway. The video started with Rowan running towards a young man. It wasn't really clear but I couldn't miss Rowan even if I was sleepy. The helicopter noise didn't let me hear much but I saw them hugged. “What… is this?” I asked, confused more than ever. “My guess?” Mr Livingston said casually. “Family reunion.” I shook my head immediately. “I don't understand.” “Then, I'll make it understandable for you,” Mr Livingston said. “He left.”
