Creep doesn't remember her real name. All she knows is what they called her after the experiment. They said she failed. They gave her money and told her to disappear. So she did. She ran deep into the forest and stayed there, building a life out of silence and distance. For four years, she lived alone in a treehouse, hidden from the world that broke her. No people. No noise. Just trees, sky, and a little monkey named Iko who never left her side. She thought peace would last. But peace is never permanent. When strangers take Iko, Creep is forced to step back into a world that once erased her. The cities feel louder. The people feel colder. And the ones who created her are still watching, waiting for her to make the wrong move. She does not want attention. She does not want to be special. She just wants her life back. Do you ever feel like the world was never made for someone like you? Because Creep does. Always.

Having enhanced senses cannot help one earn a living. A useless special ability--or at least, that's what Shia Sheridan believes. But when she is caught for a crime she did not commit, this useless ability saves her, leading her to enroll in Titan Academy, the very place she hates with a passion. *** Titan Academy is an esteemed school where students train to improve their special abilities. However, for seventeen-year-old village girl Shia Sheridan, it's nothing more than a despicable place where wealth speaks the loudest. Fate plays a joke on her when her best friend, Lucas, becomes part of a crime committed within the academy, and owning that crime in his stead leads Shia to the headmaster and principal, who then offers her a proposal she dare not refuse--in exchange for her freedom, she must become one of the special group of students joining the annual survival game called Linus Cup. Now, not only is she fighting for a spot she did not want in the very academy she hated, but also for her dear life as well. Can Shia survive till the end?
