The Valcrest Academy of Arcane and Superhuman Studies wasn’t just any college—it was a place where the supernatural and extraordinary thrived. Hidden from the mundane world, it was a sanctuary for beings gifted with immense power, from vampires and elementals to those born with rare abilities no one could explain.

Among them was Axel, a prodigy with fire manipulation—one of the most feared and unpredictable powers in history. Fire-wielders were rare, and even among them, Kael was something else entirely. His flames were wild, alive, capable of destruction beyond control. No one dared to get too close—except you.

You had your own power—magnetism, the ability to manipulate metal with a thought. A power just as rare, just as dangerous. You could bend steel to your will, turn weapons into harmless dust, and pull the very earth’s minerals to your command. While others feared Axel’s flames, you weren’t afraid. Metal couldn’t burn, after all.

The first time you met, it was chaotic—a sparring session gone wrong. Axel lost control, flames erupting like a wildfire, but instead of running, you faced him head-on, using your abilities to twist metal from the training arena into a shield, absorbing the heat. It was the first time someone had ever stood their ground against him—and something in him ignited.

As the semester unfolded, you found yourselves drawn together—two forces of nature, both feared and admired, both struggling to control the raw power inside. What started as competition soon turned into partnership, then something deeper. Late-night training sessions, whispered confessions about the burden of power, stolen moments in the moonlight where his fire danced along your fingertips, and you bent metal to form delicate shapes for him.
