Jenny seemed preoccupied and added nothing to what Franky said. "Lisa's father owns a law firm, but even she kept quiet." Franky gestured toward a contemplating Lisa, who, just like Jenny, was paying no attention to the topic of discussion. She was thinking about what she had seen when she skipped physics class. She had planned to wait it out in the girls' bathroom. Instead, she went to the Elites' classroom. The room was less of a classroom and more of a hangout for the richest kids. Not the rich kids, the 'richest.'

One look and it's obvious the answer is B. At the very next second, I heard a voice in my head. [This may seem like an easy question, but it's a trap. A lot of people will pick B by mistake, but the correct answer is C.] Immediately after, the sound of pencils scratching on paper filled the room. Many students were filling in their answers, and from the looks of it, they all chose C. I kept my eyes fixed on Yvonne Goff's hand. She, the campus belle, sat diagonally in front of me. And sure enough, I saw her filling out the answer as B. After setting her pencil down, she smirked smugly.

She sat up slowly, her expression dazed, sated. He leaned down, his lips brushing her ear. "Detention's over. But this lesson... this is just getting started." _____ The university library was a cathedral of silence and old knowledge. The advanced literature class moved in a hushed cluster through the stacks, a week after the detention incident. Tension hummed between teacher and student like a live wire. Stolen glances in the hallway, the brush of a hand when passing papers, each touch was electric, addictive. Mr. James Throne watched Elena from across the Rare Manuscripts room. She was pretending to examine a first edition of Frankenstein, but her eyes kept drifting to him. She wore a simp

Gable walks in a moment later and launches into a lecture on Victorian poetry as Eli tries desperately to refrain from staring at the back to Lucia’s head. The class continues. Elias reads the words on the board and retains approximately none of them, which is not typical for him but is entirely expected given the circumstances. Thirty minutes in, the classroom door opens and a member of the staff steps inside, leaning over Mrs. Gable’s desk to whisper to her while handing over a slip of cream-colored paper. Mrs. Gable listens, her eyes flickering across the classroom until they lock onto the back row. She straightens, clearing her throat as the assistant exits.

He sat near the back of his political theory lecture, pretending to focus on the professor while rereading the same line in his notebook over and over again. Nothing was sinking in. His phone sat face down beside him, and every time it buzzed, his heart jumped before he could stop it. Beside him, Maya dropped an iced coffee onto his desk. “You look insane,” she whispered. Eli blinked at the drink. “Thank you?” “You’re welcome.” He rubbed a hand over his face. “Is it obvious?” “You’ve looked like you’re awaiting trial since class started.” A reluctant laugh escaped him. Maya leaned back in her chair, lowering her voice. “For the record, people are talking way less than you think they are.”

she added quickly. Selena studied her daughter closely. “Oh, I’ve even prepared a few things,” Eli continued, lifting the small bag she was holding. “I brought my initial counseling report from Saint Loisse. Some notes from the placement tests—to see which class I’ll be assigned to. And, well… I’m in the advanced student’s class. In case Grandma wants to see.” Selena folded her arms across her chest. Her gaze sharpened, assessing. She let out a breath, as though patiently dealing with a child.

“Come on, let’s get to class before we’re late. Don’t let her win by getting under your skin.” He was right. I took a deep breath, trying to steady my racing heart, and let them guide me into the lecture hall. It was a massive, bowl-shaped room with tiers of stone benches rising toward a high, domed ceiling. My eyes immediately found Isabella and her friends, who had saved front-row seats. They turned to watch us enter, smug smiles on their faces. I felt like a bug under a magnifying glass.

Instead the notebook stays blank and my thoughts keep running the same loop. "Mr. Hayes." Professor Dawes's voice cuts through the room. "Would you read the opening lines of Holy Sonnet XIV for us? Your interpretation during our last seminar was particularly insightful." My head comes up. Eli sits at the front of the tiered classroom, broad shoulders hunched over a worn copy of Donne's collected works. He does not flinch at being called on. He does not exhibit the frozen panic that moves through most students when put on the spot in front of sixty people.

But under Elena's gaze, he couldn't bring himself to refuse. He could only nod helplessly. Elena hurried out the door to catch the bus. Shaun wanted his driver to take her, but she declined, and he didn't insist. Brightsun Elite High School. Elena jogged all the way to her classroom. As soon as she stepped inside, she noticed some unusual glances. When she looked over, her classmates quickly lowered their heads, as if trying to hide something. Elena didn't pay much attention. She calmly walked to her seat and sat down.
