"I haven't even done anything to you and you're already crying." Xavier murmurs. I can only sob harder in response. "You're going to show everyone aren't you?" He grabs a lock of my hair, almost endearingly and tucks it behind my ear. "If I was going to show everyone, I would have done it already." "Then delete the video." I say, hating how wildly desperate I sound. "I'm begging you please, Xavier." Those last two words hang in the air between us in a way I don't fully understand. Xavier tilts his head slightly and there's a darkness that's filtering through his gaze. It makes my face burn under his scorching stare. ───── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ───── When Isa Carrow transfers from Oakbridge Highschool to Cedora Hills Private Highschool, with the help of her rich aunt, she believes that she is granted an opportunity at a fresh start, a way for her to redeem herself and prove that her past does not define her.

"He looked like an angel. Not like those people who call their lovers angel because they wanna be sweet, but in a way where if I met God today, Ryder, holy and good, would be standing right there. By God's right-hand side, obliged to give me a tender kiss. It's quite funny though, Ryder can never be holy." Aiko, the second child, has sealed the most important deal of her life. To be the next heir of the Rockefeller empire, Aiko has to complete the ten difficult tasks her brother, the supposed-heir, wrote on a leather-bound notebook and return it to him with proof before her graduation. Including a task of making a certain rich boy fall deeply in love with her. In Venisde Academy, she was a girl with a bleeding crevice tucked in her mind to which all hope for some sort of blithe burned to ice. But she could thank it, she would've been much more timid, if not for Zachary Vildan, until the boy left without a word one morning. Unmistakably, wordlessly, severing all ties with the girl. Every single thing was checked off on her list, yet for the past 2 years, she's been stuck on the tenth. 10) Make Ryder Peterson fall for you. It was the most difficult one of all, and approaching her senior year, she has lost all hope of Ryder ever falling for her. Just as she was about to give up on an empire that she once dreamed she would have in her hands, one night of chaos filled with mafias, blades, and four of the most powerful rich boys of Venisde Academy promising a contract with her would make her lost dreams reappear and tumble back onto her fast as she could ever imagine it to be.
