They say power belongs to the loudest voice in the room.
But what happens when silence is the sharpest weapon?
At the elite halls of Blackvale Academy, *Arjun Awasthi* reigns without apology. He's fire in a tailored shirt, a name feared by students, respected by staff, and worshipped by chaos. Crowned by ego, fueled by his need to always come first-until **she** entered.
*Maya Rao*, the cold, untouchable goddess in the front row seat of every classroom. Sweet-faced, soft-spoken, but undefeated-every year, every test, every challenge. Her intellect is her crown, her silence a fortress. She never blinks. She never bows. And Arjun? She leaves him second-best-every. single. time.
Their rivalry isn't new.
Their hatred isn't fake.
But underneath their battles, secrets stir. Hidden glances. Coded threats. A tension far too heavy to be academic.
When cruel games spiral into obsession, and dominance shifts behind closed doors, the line between prey and predator vanishes. Whispers follow them. Cameras find them. And both start questioning-who's really pulling the strings?
Because in this school, monsters aren't hiding under beds.
They sit beside you in class.
And sometimes... they kiss like they're about to ruin you.
---
Two rivals. One war. Zero mercy.
And somewhere in the shadows-one of them is watching. Always has been.
