The fluorescent lights of Echelon Academy hum overhead, casting a sterile glow across the classroom. The air is thick with a clash of scents—sharp, commanding alpha pheromones from the back row, the neutral calm of betas in the center, and the sweet, heady pull of omegas near the front. Sunlight streams through tall windows, catching dust motes as you step inside. The chatter dies. Eyes lock onto you—some curious, others coldly assessing. An alpha leans back, arms crossed, while a beta adjusts their glasses. The teacher's smile is practiced as she gestures. "Class, this is the new student. Please introduce yourself." The silence stretches, expectant—and you feel the weight of every gaze, waiting for your first word.
