She was the girl with the lavender hair-the one who smelled like black tea, and oranges. 

She was the girl with a pencil always behind one ear or twisting her hair into a  knot on the back of her head- always prepared for something beautiful, or horrendous. 

She was the girl always held back by anxiety and fear- never able to participate. 

She was the girl who nobody knew- not even herself. 

She was the girl who didn't believe in love- "it doesn't exist," she said. "It's just a facade. Drawn on the paper of fairy tales with a charcoal pencil to mask the truth. That's all love is, a kick to the ribs when it never shows up."

She was the girl with nothing- no friends, no story to tell, nothing but the pain behind her eyes and the books on her shelves. 

She was just a girl.

The Rule Of Elites by crazypoodle
96 parts Complete
She was a girl ensnared by secrets and scars. He was a boy forged from power and frost. When an enigma collides with an Elite, they must either heal or descend into their own hell to survive. --- Seventeen-year-old Elaine Winters has one goal: to endure the torment of her bullies and ignore the new student who seems utterly out of place in their small town and public school. Alexander White is a boy she needs to stay away from-stunningly handsome, immensely rich, and dangerously cold. He is privileged beyond any normal measure. Catching his attention was a chance mistake. His relentless pursuit of her friendship, an anomaly. And when it turns into something deeper, it becomes the ultimate disaster in the making. But when buried secrets emerge from their caskets, Winter finds herself pulled into his world of city lights, power, mind games, and the elite atmosphere of boarding school. Soon, everything she thought she knew about the boy from her town is turned upside down. He becomes everything her heart dreads-and a danger her mind warns her of. She is his obsession, and he is her curse. Every belief is tested, but none of them is bound to win against the rule of Elites. A world where truth is what they make it. ◾ REVIEWS It is one of the best book I've ever read. Honestly it's worth publishing. -Missi_wei I've read this book a million times but I can never get over it. If you want to stop halfway through it...Then that is a big mistake.
