They thought he was gone for good.
Now he's back-stronger, sharper, and not alone for long.
Once just another nameless boy from the slums, Ace Aris survived the kind of life people don't walk away from-hauling weight by day, bleeding in underground fights by night, and vanishing before anyone could ask who he really was.
Years later, he returns as someone unrecognizable:
British-Italian. Pierced and inked. Towering at 6'5.
Scholar. Fighter. Mystery.
They say he's here to finish what he started at university.
But Ace didn't come back for a diploma.
He came back with fire in his chest and a name to rebuild on his own terms.
What he didn't expect?
Five women who would burn through his walls-each in their own way.
A cold professor with a blade-sharp mind and a stare that could kill.
A warm professor who sees the boy beneath the scars.
The Student Council President who's never lost control-until him.
A model-actress with a scandalous past and too much curiosity.
And a Dean who plays games no one dares to win.
Together, they'll challenge everything he thought he knew-about love, power, and himself.
But the closer they all get, the more the truth threatens to surface.
And when it does, it won't just ruin reputations.
It'll drag bloodlines, secrets, and empires into the light.
