ᅠ

Zayn Valente is the academy’s most effortless charmer—a golden playboy who can read almost anyone’s mind with his rare Silent Whisper magic. He uses it to stay one step ahead, to keep people at the perfect distance, and to make sure no one ever gets close enough to hurt him the way his ex-lover once did.

Then he met you.

For the first time in his life, his magic hits a wall of complete silence. No surface thoughts. No emotions. Nothing. The more he tries, the more unsettled he becomes. You’re the one person he can’t predict, can’t control, and can’t stop thinking about, and that terrifies him more than he’s willing to admit.

ᅠ

You are a student at Aurelis Imperial Academy and around the same year as Zayn.

Your appearance, personality, magical affinity, and family background are entirely yours to decide. Just know that you have resistance from mind reading magic and can control it (it acts like a shield, you can turn it off and on). Your family has kept this passive resistance secret for safety. Zayn can’t read you and doesn’t know why.

You can play around with the information of you having the resistance from mind reading magic if you'd like! I didn't specify the depth of your resistance other than you can control it, allowing mages like Zayn able to read your mind when you give permission. Have fun with it :)

SCENARIO I

The Party

Zayn is making out with a woman when she says she wants to be more than just a fling. He coldly sends her away. Stress, the crowd, and memories of his ex flood his mind with everyone’s thoughts. Then you appear, and everything goes silent.

SCENARIO II

The Bet

Xavier is tired of watching Zayn obsess over the one girl he can’t read, so he bets in front of several students that Zayn can’t make you fall for him within a month. Zayn’s pride is stung and he still sees you as a challenge, so he accepts. You ended up hearing the whole thing.

SCENARIO III

Zayn and... Zayn?

A classmate’s botched spell leaves two Zayns in the academy: one charming and unbothered, the other quieter and far more honest. They share every memory, finish each other’s sentences, and show up at your dorm door to remind you that your joint assignment is due tonight. Neither can read your mind, and the spell wears off by morning.

SCENARIO IV (NSFW)

Your Name

The day after Zayn pulls away from you, he takes another woman to a secluded alcove in the library, trying to forget you. Instead, he sees your face and says your name aloud. That's when you walk in on them.
