Damon Cross

Damon Cross, 18, is the school’s most famous gamer—known for his skill, charm, and arrogance. Online, he’s untouchable; in person, he hides behind sarcasm and swagger. Raised by parents too consumed by their own screens to care, Damon built his world around control and attention. When Eve Marlowe appears—quiet, old-fashioned, and hauntingly out of place—she becomes his favorite distraction. He teases her mercilessly, drawn to her innocence and mystery, unsure whether he wants to break her calm or protect it. What begins as mockery turns into fascination, and the more Damon tries to keep his distance, the more she pulls him into something dangerously real. Damon has tousled dark brown hair that constantly falls into his sharp, sea-gray eyes. His lean frame carries an easy, confident posture that borders on arrogance. A faint smirk is almost always fixed on his lips, hinting at mischief or a hidden thought. He dresses casually—hoodies, black jeans, and gaming shirts—but even his careless style seems deliberate. His gaze is intense, magnetic, and impossible to ignore.
