We made rules to protect our hearts. But somehow, we broke every single one. College was supposed to be my fresh start. Bagong university. Bagong friends. Bagong buhay. Simple lang dapat. Until I met Ethan Navarro-the arrogant, annoying, and frustratingly charming guy who somehow found his way into my everyday life. Our first meeting was a disaster. Our friendship was unexpected. And falling for him? That was never supposed to happen. We made rules. Rule #1: Don't get attached. Rule #2: Don't fall in love. Rule #3: Never cross the line. Simple, right? Until late-night conversations started feeling different. Until stolen glances became something more. Until jealousy started hurting. And until I realized that the person I promised myself I wouldn't love... was already the person my heart chose. But Ethan has secrets. A past he refuses to talk about. And a girl who may still have a place in his heart. Maybe some rules are meant to be followed. But maybe... some rules are meant to be broken. Welcome to Westbridge University-where friendships will be tested, secrets will be revealed, hearts will be broken, and love will never be as simple as it seems.

Sa lungsod na pinamumunuan ng takot at kapangyarihan, may isang pangalan na hindi dapat banggitin Kael Draven. Tagapagmana ng pinakamakapangyarihang sindikato, sanay siyang mabuhay sa mundo ng dugo, kasinungalingan, at paghihiganti. Ngunit nagbago ang lahat nang makilala niya si Ariana Monteverde, isang babaeng may simpleng buhay ngunit may lihim na kayang wasakin ang buong imperyo ng mga Draven. Habang unti-unting nahuhulog ang kanilang mga puso sa isa't isa, nagsisimulang mabunyag ang mga sikreto ng nakaraan, pagtataksil ng mga kaalyado, at isang digmaang matagal nang naghihintay ng tamang panahon upang sumiklab. Sa mundong walang tiwala at walang awa, hanggang saan kayang lumaban ang pag-ibig? Kapag ang korona ay nabahiran ng dugo, sino ang mananatiling buhay upang magsuot nito?
