Summary:

And of course, walking down the hallway is the one person with the power to take this all away from him. Adam can pick out the sound of Ronan Lynch’s footfalls. Shoes were the only non-regulated part of their uniform, but Aglionby had never seen Doc Martens before Ronan Lynch had graced its wainscoted halls. Adam did not have to look to know that Ronan’s uniform probably also looked non-regulated.

Adam looks anyway. Ronan’s scrolling through his phone, headphones in, but the ice in his eyes warns others back, as exotic and deadly as a blue coral snake. He threatens everything Adam is learning to let himself have. Because rather than warning Adam away—Adam who never shies from solving a problem—Ronan Lynch’s colors draw him in, render him immobile.

Ronan Lynch knows his secrets and has never breathed a word. Adam knows he never would.
