1 part Ongoing At Crestwood Academy, wealth isn't just a privilege-it's a weapon. The students are heirs to empires, legacies of influence, and the unseen rulers of industries. There are two kinds of elite: Show Ponies (SPs)-those whose families are splashed across headlines, famous athletes, politicians, and Hollywood royalty and Shadows, the ones no one sees coming. Their names don't appear on rich lists, but their money moves in silence, pulling the strings of the world's most powerful industries.
Aria. No one knows who she is. No one knows where her wealth comes from. Not even her last name is public knowledge. But when she transfers into Crestwood, she becomes the center of whispered speculation. She's too poised to be just another rich girl, and the way the faculty-and even some of the parents seem to dismiss her? Suspicious.
Some families are playing a much bigger game, one that extends beyond Crestwood's walls. And Aria? She might be the most dangerous player of them all.
But power always comes with a price. And when the truth about Aria's family starts to unravel, Crestwood will never be the same.
