Hello, readers! Just a heads-up: There are 4 stories to this series, and this is Book 1 of it. Thank you!
This book has only been published on Wattpad and on AO3 by me. Anyone who tries to plagiarise and upload my book onto another website would be reported immediately (for example, websites like https://novel2u.net and teenfic.net). I mean, I AM grateful to those who have already attempted to plagiarise my books and who seemed to like my book so much as to put in the effort to copy and paste entire chunks of my book into another website, but still. Doing so disrespects me as I had actually spent the time to write my books out whereas you, the plagiariser, haven't.
Now, with this settled, let us begin!
Trigger Warning: Blood and violence.

*****
Ella Volkov is a gifted music student, but she's depressed and starting to crack under the pressure of high school. Her overbearing father won't even let her choose what instrument she plays. Then she finds herself alone at a party with Ren, her best friend's crush. She'd always thought he was rude, but after that night he's all Ella can think about. Now she's trapped. If Ella dates Ren, it will ruin her friendship with Jenny. But if she stays true to Jenny, she's losing the one person who can see past her scars. It's up to Ella to decide if she will forge her own path, or stay in the "perfect" box designed for her...
