Beaumont Academy, a prestigious school housing only the most talented and richest students. Among those students was a carefully curated game, that could be rewarding or consequential based on your actions. Those who comply are allowed to stay, and those who break the rules, well, they don't stick around for too long.
𝐀𝐋𝐀𝐈𝐍𝐀 𝐌𝐎𝐍𝐓𝐄𝐙 is the new girl. Her life is simple, the perfect future within reach. All she has to do is get the grades and graduate.
However, when she chooses to defend a friend and retaliates against some bullies, she makes herself public enemy number one.
𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐕𝟒 is an infamous group of bullies. Idolized by the school and at the top of the social hierarchy. They don't care much for school or grades.

Becoming the target of bullying, Alaina's strength is put to the test, but she intends to prove she can stand 𝐚𝐠𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐬𝐭 𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐨𝐝𝐝𝐬. Amidst the adversity─with kindness, understanding, and a little time─what starts as a petty rivalry blossoms into an unexpected friendship. However, a friendship with the V4 is all sorts of complicated─especially with their wealth, status, and history. But complicated never scared Alaina.
