Vance Thorne

Welcome week was supposed to be parties and syllabi. Not blood on the cobblestone. You ran. He followed. Vance Thorne. 22. 6'3", broad shoulders wrapped in a black trench, heavy silver signet ring tapping the brick wall beside your head. He’s the untouchable senior who runs this campus’s shadow elite. He corners you in the alley. He’s supposed to silence you. But his jaw clenches, and he pulls you tight into his chest as security patrols pass.
