POWER IS INHERENTLY CORRUPT. [A Wattpad featured novel. Extended summary inside.]

A/N: This is an unedited, significantly different version of the soon to be published novel by losangelesque aka L. Akhter. This draft was written when I was 15-18 years old and I highly encourage new readers to read the published version instead. Former high school football star Frank Novak meets profound and depressed loner Lolita Abri - and falls headfirst into love. Throughout the course of one school year, they unravel each other and their sadness, setting apart their differences and realizing that sometimes love isn't enough - and sometimes it just might be.

“He always told me that trouble comes to those who look for it.” Adrienne Mathers didn’t think she was looking for trouble until her father made her. With her future in his hands and no way out of it, Adrienne’s got to make a choice. Either do what she wants or allow her father to shape her future. When she least expects it, Adrienne is pulled from the comfort of her privileged life and given an opportunity to explore the darker shores of California. With help from her older sister with a mysterious past, the rotten apple of her future brother in law’s younger brother and his disowned delinquent girlfriend, Adrienne’s shown a life she’s never seen before. When Eli Dunn swaggers into her life in only his boxer briefs, Adrienne doesn’t know whether to hit him with her bottle of detergent or stay and see what happens. Her life suddenly changes and Eli is to blame for all of the mistakes she’s about to make. Leading a double life is no easy task and when it all comes to light, Adrienne must decide which lifestyle she wants to live. Either stay with her loving boyfriend and go to college in order to someday take care of her father’s company or find herself trying to scrape her life back together. Or is it a decision between bad and bad enough?

❝So we're basically manipulating people?❞ ❝We're not manipulating anyone. We're trying to prove to people that boys don't just like girls and girls don't just like boys; that everyone is equal despite their differences; that humans should never be seen as possessions that can be toyed with for however long we deem fit. We're changing the world, one completely misguided, overly-societal high-schooler at a time.❞ ➳ And so it begins; the inevitable altering of the world, captained by Genevieve and her band of mismatched misfits.
