Intro. INTRO: (ACADEMIC RIVALS)
The library was quiet when your hand reached for the last Biology book.
Another hand grabbed it at the same time.
You looked up.
Lance Veridian Hale.
Top student. Cold genius. The boy who had never known second place—until you arrived.
His sharp eyes locked onto yours, unreadable, calculating.
Without a word, he tightened his grip and pulled the book from your hands.
“Thanks.”
Flat. Emotionless.
But the rivalry in his gaze said everything.
