He didn't need it explained. He could feel it too.

She didn't mean to fall in love. Not with strict parents. Not with a topper rivalry. Not with someone who noticed when she got tired. It was just a college mela. Just one Ferris wheel ride. Just one moment at the top when the world paused. But sometimes, love doesn't arrive loudly. Sometimes it begins quietly - with a hand placed over yours and a heart that starts shifting without warning. And the worst part? She had already fallen. He was just beginning.

Tygon and Lila begin their university placement at Straylight, the same company where Nine works. He is supposed to be overseas on a long-term project, giving Tygon hope that she can avoid him and concentrate on the job. At the end of their first week, project assignments are released. That is when Tygon discovers, in the worst way possible, that Nine has returned early. Worse still, she and Nine are placed on the same project team. Tygon is determined to remain professional, avoid him entirely, and pretend nothing ever happened. But between their tangled past, her growing symptoms, and the secret she is carrying, staying away from him becomes impossible.

Rhea never planned on falling for anyone. Especially not him. Reign is her best friend's older brother. Older. Quieter. Unpredictable. The kind of person you notice without meaning to and avoid once you do. The kind you're not supposed to feel anything for. It doesn't start with a kiss. It barely starts at all. Just glances that linger too long. Silences that feel heavy. Moments that cross lines without ever touching them. Between summer nights, unspoken rules, and an attraction no one is meant to see, Rhea tries to stay in control. But Reign never promised to be harmless. And some stories begin exactly where you should look away.
