Lana Del Rey is a hot and confident bad-girl who has been too bad. Her partying has ultimately led to her being sent away to a boarding school - Kent School in Connecticut. The change of location doesn't mean anything to Lana, and she will carry on with her party-girl lifestyle the best she can in this boring new school. Also at the school is Marina Diamandis, the popular, pretty, introverted Greek girl on the cheer squad. Marina is quiet and somewhat lonely, with only a few real friends. She is very interesting to Lana. Maybe Lana will be good for Marina - it wouldn't hurt to boost her confidence and bring her out of her shell. Lana likes Marina's attitude and brattiness that are reserved only for her, but getting close to Marina might be more difficult than first thought due to the scars of her troubled past. -------- Some major content warnings for this story ⚠️ : - a lot a lot of sex - alcohol use - drug use - mentions of disordered eating (bulimia) - mentions of grooming - mentions of domestic abuse - implications of sexual assault please do pay attention to these and protect yourself if you think anything could be potentially triggering to you <3 thank you But! Let it be said that, as serious as the bottom four listed themes are, I wouldn't say this story is too intense because both the girls are recovering from their pasts. The discussions of the topics are brief and as vague as I can make them without doing their seriousness' an injustice in their portrayals. This story is long, gritty and smutty. I hope you guys enjoy reading it as much as I've enjoyed writing it. If there's one thing I've learnt from writing for you guys these past few years, it's that you're all very sweet to me and the most supportive readers I could ask for <3 Enjoy xoxo

What begins as stolen glances becomes a dangerous entanglement. But when Astra discovers the truth about her family's crimes-and the betrayal that could start a war-she's torn between the kingdom she was born to protect and the man she was never meant to love.
