THE RANKING INSTITUTION: HELL ​Free education. Zero tuition. A golden opportunity. ​That's the lie Isha Malhotra swallowed before she walked through the gates. ​This isn't a school. It's a ruthless psychological machine where human worth is reduced to a single digit. Here, your rank is your currency, your power, and your lifeline. The elite at the top command absolute submission. The dregs at the bottom endure living nightmares. ​And Rank 0? It's a death sentence. No one has ever survived it. ​Desperate to stay alive in a system engineered to break her, Isha inadvertently crosses paths with Rishab Mehra. He is the institution's undisputed apex predator-cold, untouchable, and lethally calculating. ​In a den of vipers where trust is a fatal flaw and emotions are leverage, aligning with Rishab is a high-stakes gamble. He could be her ultimate shield... or the very monster that destroys her. ​Because in this school, you don't just fight for a grade. You fight for your soul. Welcome to :- THE RANKING INSTITUTION ☠️

Things nobody should know. Because while she was busy watching him... Someone had already been watching her. And the most dangerous part? She wasn't the only one obsessed.
