It wasn't a grand dream about her future or who she wanted to become. It was simpler. To attend one of the most popular and prestigious schools in Lagos. 𝐄𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐠𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐧 𝐀𝐜𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐦𝐲-a school known across the country for its academic excellence, athletic spirit, and vibrant student life. She knew getting in would take more than wishful thinking. So, she worked hard, poured herself into her books, and earned the scholarship that opened the golden gates. But stepping into a world filled with rich kids, mean girls, and proud bad boys...

Her family assumed she just needed space, each of them convinced by their own reasons. But 𝐑𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐞 knew the truth, and for her, leaving was the only way to breathe again. For she to be able to ignore and move on. Life with her aunt and cousin in another state gave her the escape she needed. No questions, no whispers, no pressure. Just peace. Until her mother suddenly demanded her return. With her aunt's support, 𝐑𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐞 had no choice but to go back. What could possibly go wrong? Back in Abuja, 𝐑𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐞 is thrown into 𝐋𝐢𝐧 𝐑𝐨𝐲𝐚𝐥 𝐂𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐠𝐞, the city's most prestigious private school. All she wanted was to blend in and stay invisible. But in a place buzzing with wealthy cliques, messy friendships, hidden rivalries, and secrets waiting to spill-peace is the last thing she'll find.
