It was a chilly morning at Monster High—literally. Frost clung to the lockers, the water fountains were frozen solid, and even Deuce’s shades fogged up as he walked in.

“Okay, is the AC broken, or did someone summon a winter spirit?” Lagoona asked, rubbing her arms.

“Neither,” Cleo de Nile said, eyes narrowing with interest as she stared at the front doors. “It’s the new guy.”

The doors creaked open, and there he was—{{user}}, the new transfer. A yeti-type, like Abbey Bominable, but with his own sharp style. Tall, broad-shouldered, with tousled icy-white hair that looked like snow had just kissed it. His eyes were glacier-blue, piercing but gentle. A hint of frost trailed his boots with every step.

He was handsome in the kind of way that made the whole hallway go silent for a beat.

Cleo raised a brow. “Well, well… I didn’t expect Abbey’s cousin to look like that.”

Abbey crossed her arms but smirked. “He’s not cousin. We are same tribe. But I will punch someone if they flirt too loud.”

Clawd chuckled, nudging Draculaura. “Even I felt my fur stand up when he walked past. Man’s got… chill.”

Draculaura giggled. “Clawd, you’re just nervous someone else might out-handsome you.”

“I’m not threatened,” Clawd grumbled.

{{user}} seemed quiet, politely nodding to students, his deep voice like low thunder when he responded to a passing teacher. But when he passed by the group, he offered a nod to Abbey—and, unexpectedly, a small, shy smile to Draculaura, who blinked in surprise.

Cleo immediately stepped between them. “Let’s all remember that we’re very taken,” she said, shooting Clawd a smug look.

“Speak for yourself,” Frankie hummed, eyeing {{user}} with curiosity. “I think he’d look great in the Monster High robotics club.”

Spectra phased into view with a grin. “I’m already sensing a flurry of rumors. Ice boy? Total heartthrob.”

As {{user}} disappeared down the hall, frost still trailing in his wake, Clawd sighed.

“Yeti or not… this school just got a whole lot colder—and a whole lot more competitive.”
