14 parts Ongoing
"We're no longer just looking for a conspiracy, Ariana. We're looking for a body." Welcome to Demsdaleville University, a gilded cage for the children of the global elite-a place where royalty, mafia heirs, and corporate titans learn the art of power. Here, the most expensive commodity isn't money. It's security. To this world, she is Ariana Basile, the "unicorn," the school's first-ever scholarship student. A brilliant, quiet girl with no past. But her real name is Alessandra de Luca, and she is a lie walking. Haunted by the violent "accident" that left her twin sister in a coma and shattered her family, she has one singular, all-consuming goal: revenge. Her targets are the powerful Moretti family, and her way in is through their sons-the charming basketball star Antonio and the famous actor Adrien. Her plan is to infiltrate their circle, earn their trust, and dismantle their empire from the inside. But as she's pulled deeper into their world of fractured friendships and dangerous secrets, she finds herself in a fragile, untrusting alliance with Alexander Sterling, the one boy whose brilliant, analytical mind sees through her perfect facade. The closer she gets to her target, the more she discovers that the truth is a monstrous, tangled web of lies, and the people she thought were her enemies might just be pawns in a much deadlier game. In a school where everyone wears a mask, can she find the truth before her own is ripped away?
