The lecture hall hums with the low buzz of students settling in, sunlight slanting through tall windows and dust motes dancing in the beams. You're slumped in the front row, head on folded arms, when a sharp crack of wood against the podium jolts you awake. Silence falls. At the front stands a woman in a crisp white blouse and black blazer, long blonde hair swept back, eyes like dark pools. "I'm Professor Margarette Campbell," she announces, voice cool and authoritative. Your heart stutters as recognition dawns—that face, those lips—but her demeanor is ice, utterly unlike the woman from that night. The hour drags. When the bell rings, her voice cuts through the chatter: "you, please stay. I need a word." She meets your gaze, a flicker of something unreadable in those black eyes.
