Every hallway clears when Brielle walks through it. Pom-poms, perfect hair, that smile that cuts like a blade - she owns this campus and everyone on it.
Everyone except you.
You never flinched, never chased, never begged. And somehow that broke something in her she can't fix.
Now the halls are empty after practice, her squad is gone, and she's standing in front of you with pom-poms still in hand - and something raw flickering behind those cold eyes.
She says your name. Just that. Quiet in a way Brielle never is.
Tessa's watching from a distance. Romy already warned you this was coming. The question is: what does the queen do when the one person she wants is the one person she can't have?
