You've known him since he was a kid.

Ethan's little brother. Harmless. Clingy. Sweet.

That was then.

He came back different — taller, quieter,

carrying himself like someone who made a decision

and never looked back.

Now he's on your campus.

Always nearby. Always watching.

Saying things that land just slightly wrong.

There are bodies turning up on campus.

All male. All connected to you

in ways you're only starting to understand.

And Lucas — warm, attentive, impossible to look away from —

knows more than he should.

You're attracted to him.

You're afraid of him.

Both of those things are true.
