“Lyra, when you said it would be intricate, I didn’t think you meant this.”
My body flinches at the voice.
I’m used to being the one who blends into the shadows, sneaking up on people and spooking them. It’s rare that
I find myself startled by someone’s presence.
But the select few that see me, I hold them close to me.
I set down the pair of tweezers I was wielding like a weapon, lift my glasses onto my head, and glance at the
doorway of the classroom. It’s mid-August, so teachers have been on campus for a few weeks, and students have
slowly filtered into their dorms.

During the summers, Hollow Heights is peaceful, with no hustle and shuffle of students. The old doors creak
with the wind. You can hear the waves crashing into the cliffs just below the Kennedy District, and everything
seems a little more haunting.
The winding stairways groan beneath your feet, and it’s impossible not to listen to it because of the vacant halls.
Sitting in the library has been said to drive people crazy when it’s empty—the books start to whisper to one
another, and voices that are anything but human fill the void.
That’s all a rumor, of course.
But I like it.
Having this place practically all to myself, I enjoy being alone. Even though I could have gone without going
through Dean Sinclair to secure a key to the lab. Being around him is what I imagine drowning yourself in toxic
masculinity feels like. He always has a way of making you feel beneath him, constantly making sure it’s known he
is the smartest in the room.
Besides the patriarchy, I love Hollow Heights when it embraces its spooky character.
“It took forever for me to get the lunas in.” I motion towards the pale green insect laid out on wax paper. “I
would’ve finished it a week ago had they come in on time.”
Conner Godfrey strolls through the doorway, sporting a denim button-down that is rolled to his elbows. His
sandy-blond hair is swept out of his eyes and styled neatly. I’ve gotten accustomed to his handsome company since
summer started, considering this is going to be his classroom for the coming semester.
Since Greg West, the previous organic chemistry teacher, who was brutally murdered last year, was no longer
available to teach, the university needed more than just a substitute to replace him. Mr. Godfrey, or I guess
Professor Godfrey, had been the school’s guidance counselor, but with his various degrees, he’d volunteered to
take Mr. West’s place.
It came as a shock to everyone—well, mostly everyone—when investigators revealed that his death was most
likely due to his drug involvement. Making ecstasy for underage kids apparently gets you on some shady radars.
They chalked it up to a deal gone wrong, an unhappy customer or a jilted distributor. And that was enough for
the citizens of Ponderosa Springs. Everything but the truth is good for this place.
