selena has always believed that adulthood means handling things on her own - even when it hurts. juggling two jobs, crushing tuition costs, and a pride she refuses to let crack, she makes a choice she never thought she would: she enters the world of online arrangements, searching for stability without strings.
what she finds instead is control, intention, and a connection that feels far more dangerous than desperation.
as boundaries blur and attraction grows, selena is forced to confront the difference between survival and desire, power and consent, need and choice. some contracts are clear. others are written between the lines.
and some terms change everything once they're broken.
