Nyxe Hermione Vergarra, the broadcaster and news writer of "The Satellite" grew up carrying a deep resentment toward men. Something in her past left a mark she still doesn't know how to heal. She kept her guard high, her world small, and her trust locked away where no one could reach it.
Then came Auxe Zheandrx Valer also known as "Zane" who wasn't supposed to matter. He was just that guy from the school publication... the popular photojournalist everyone liked, the one who always had a camera hanging around his neck and an irritatingly confident smile on his face.
To Nyxe, he was just another reason to roll her eyes.
But everything changed after that one competition.
During the qualifiers, Nyxe unexpectedly became his muse.
In one candid moment, the angle too perfect to ignore, Auxe Zhaendrx took the shot. He framed it instinctively, almost breathlessly, and the moment he checked the screen, he knew it was the one.
He paired it with what he believed was his strongest, most compelling headline yet, submitted it, and somehow... that single shot carried him straight into the National Schools Press Conference.
Slowly, the walls she built; the ones she thought were unbreakable... began to crack in small, unexpected ways.
But... what happened after the NSPC?..
Yet then,
She still didn't trust easily.
But around him, it was the first time she didn't feel like she had to run.
She despised and hated him, but he still admired and loved her.
