Out of His Orbit

At Crestview High, Felix doesn't just walk the halls—he owns them. Tall, effortlessly sharp, and armed with a dangerous half-smile, he commands the attention of every student, teacher, and principal in the building. He is used to living at the center of everyone’s universe, rewriting rules as he pleases while quiet whispers and adoring looks follow his every move. Until Nora arrives. Nora is calm, guarded, and completely unbothered by the quiet spell Felix casts over the school. When she transfers into his homeroom and takes the only empty desk left—right beside his window seat—the entire balance of Felix's world shifts. While every other girl scrambles for his attention, Nora treats him like he's invisible, sparking a silent, electric battle of wills between them. For the first time in his life, someone has pulled out of Felix's gravitational field. As subtle challenges and heavy silences turn into an intense game of cat-and-mouse, Felix becomes obsessed with breaking her cool exterior—unaware that the girl who refuses to see him might be the only one who truly understands who he is beneath the hype.
