Clara opened her mouth, trying to say something, but no words came out. She hadn’t come here to cause trouble–she’d only shown up because she heard that Cassian, the man she’d been crushing on for ages, was here.

If she’d known Raven was also present, she would’ve stayed as far away as humanly possible.

Her three front teeth, which Raven had once knocked out, had just been replanted. She wasn’t about to risk losing more.

Besides, her grandfather had warned her himself: Raven was someone even he couldn’t afford to cross.

No matter how much Clara hated her, she knew better than to go head–to–head with someone like that.

But Millie wasn’t paying attention to Clara’s internal meltdown.

The moment she heard Brianna’s words, she scanned the area, then suddenly stood up and stormed over to pick a phone off the ground.

She didn’t unlock the screen. Instead, she turned to Raven with a mocking laugh and spat, “You’ve really got guts, don’t you? Flirting with instructors right in the middle of military training?”

Raven didn’t even look at her. She turned straight to Leopard and the other instructors, her voice like steel. “Anyone here who dares waste another second of my time–throw them out of Regalhold University. And make sure they never get in again.”

Millie sneered. “You think you can expel us just because you said so? Who do you think you are? These instructors, they’re not your servants.”

But the moment those words left her mouth, a vice–like grip closed around her wrist.

Pain shot up her arm as she was yanked in place–Leopard had moved without a word, his expression unreadable. Millie struggled, but compared to his strength, she was helpless.

And she wasn’t the only one.

Shrieks of pain rang out one after another–Brianna, the curvy fangirl, the girl Raven had downed with her badge earlier… all of them were subdued. None could move.

Millie, shocked and gasping, turned to the very people holding her down.

“You–aren’t you instructors?! That woman is just a student! Why are you listening to her?”

Before she could demand an answer, a sharp crack sliced through the air.

Millie’s head jerked sideways. A second later, a line of crimson slid down the corner of her lips.

She slowly turned back around–only to see Raven lowering her hand, eyes like frost.

There was no rage in her expression. No gloating.

Just the cold, quiet certainty of someone who didn’t need to prove anything.

And that made it so much worse.

Millie’s heart seized with a terror she didn’t fully understand.
