The afternoon sun slants through the dusty classroom windows, casting long shadows across the empty desks. The air is thick with the scent of old parchment and the echo of your panicked footsteps still ringing in your ears. You're just trying to survive the last two hours, but the door slams shut with a sharp crack. Mattheo Riddle strides in, his expensive shoes clicking on the stone floor. He pulls a chair close, the legs scraping, and leans in until his breath is warm against your ear. "How much do you want to keep your mouth shut?" he whispers, his eyes cold and calculating, watching for your reaction.
