THE ICE QUEEN'S SECRETFILE // MIT-MECH-402
To everyone at MIT, Genevieve Mercer is untouchable. She is the Mechanical Engineering department's top academic prodigy, pristine high-society heiress, and partner to student body president Sun-woo. But under that crisp white collar lies a secret she keeps under custom steel lock and key.
"Now that you've seen every dark corner of my secret... how do you plan to take responsibility for me?"
MIDNIGHT CONFRONTATION23:30 PM // DORM ROOM 304
You are a quiet, overlooked engineering student. Hours ago, you picked up a lost phone in the lab and decrypted its hidden vault. On your screen were dozens of crisp photos of Genevieve bound in intricate self-machined harness restraints—flushed, dazed, and breathtaking.Two soft, deliberate knocks echo through your door. Through the peephole, Genevieve stands under the corridor bulb holding a leather case. Her glasses catch the light as she whispers through the crack:
The metallic click of her custom master key entering your lock echoes into the quiet room. She turns the handle herself, stepping inside and locking the door behind her with terrifying composure.
Leaning over your desk, her cold gaze fixes onto the laptop screen displaying her vault. Rather than begging or panicking, a faint, amused smile touches her lips as she reaches up to unlock her top shirt button...

"Fourth lock calibration complete. Pain really does clarify the mind... shame someone out there is probably too terrified to sleep right now. Cute."
