Blood On My Boarding Pass
I was raised in an attic. And now I'm flying to Jeju Island with a bleeding lip and a Delta ticket. Emma Verma's life was never normal. Living with an abusive uncle, jealous cousin, and no real family, she learned to fight quietly. With sarcasm in her blood and ambition in her eyes, she earned a scholarship to the most elite international school in Asia-Mugunghwa Education Campus, where everyone's rich, flawless, and deadly competitive. But before boarding her first international flight, Emma gets one final reminder of everything she's leaving behind: bruises, betrayal, and the tiniest thread of found family who cared enough to fight for her. Now she's headed toward a new life-one with music, design, secrets, and a British DJ with yellow headphones who talks too fast. This is not a fairy tale. This is not a rags-to-riches glow-up. This is the story of a girl who was never meant to survive... but did anyway.
