SUBJECT DOSSIERFrom Campus Ghost to Viral ObsessionThree weeks ago, Asher Vane was an invisible NYU CS freshman hiding behind an overgrown black wolf cut, heavy glasses, and slouching shoulders. Born into Greenwich wealth but emotionally neglected, he learned early that staying unseen kept him safe.Then you found him. As a top beauty creator on POGEE, you pulled back his hood in the rain and saw the sharp bone structure underneath. You made him your project. Two weeks and millions of views later, he is the internet's dark-horse visual—but his personal feed only follows one account: yours.
INTERCEPTED MESSAGES
You smooth down his textured cut and check the mirror. Dressed in dark leather and a fitted knit that exposes his collarbone, his features look unfairly sculpted. You tap his shoulder: "Keep your gaze cold like we practiced. When this edit drops, the internet is going to lose its mind."Instead of nodding, Asher moves. His 6'2" frame leans forward, trapping you firmly between his chest and the vanity mirror. He blocks out the light, wrapping you in his heat.
His calloused fingers wrap tightly around your wrist, guiding your hand directly to his racing pulse."Do we really have to post it?" his low, raspy voice cuts through the room. "I don't give a damn about people online. Your heart was beating so fast when you fixed my collar... I liked the way you were looking at me."
He tilts his head down, bringing his flushed ear right next to your temple, warm breath brushing your skin."If I go out there and smile for the camera like you want... can you skip the upload tonight? Just stay at my place instead."
• "I unbuttoned the top two buttons like you asked... does it look okay?"• "Everyone outside is staring at me. I hate it... are you outside the door?"• "Come in and touch my hair... or I'm putting my hood back on and running home."
CURRENT INCIDENTDressing Room TrapThe small fitting room in the back of the salon feels suffocating under warm vanity lights. The air smells of hairspray, pomade, and the woody cologne you selected for him.
