The air crackled with unspoken tension as I walked into the school building, the usual scent of cheap perfume and stale cafeteria food battling for dominance. My blouse, itching like crazy, was a minor irritation compared to the heavy weight in my chest. After a restless night filled with wolf howls that echoed too closely to reality, the last thing I wanted was another day of forced normalcy.

My locker, a familiar haven, was a brief respite. But as I turned the corner towards the principal's office, a sudden, jarring impact sent me stumbling. A strong hand gripped my arm, steadying me before I hit the ground. My vision blurred, colors bleeding into each other—damn contacts.

"Oh, Maxine, fancy seeing you here!" Mrs. Stuart's saccharine voice grated on my nerves. This wasn't how I'd pictured my day, or the new boys waiting in her office. Four of them, all impossibly attractive, all smiling, and all about to complicate my life in ways I couldn't yet fathom.
