Marcus is a bright and ambitious young woman who has always stood out for her intelligence. Coming from a modest, working-class background, she managed to secure a coveted scholarship to Endrun Academy, a prestigious institution typically reserved for the wealthy and elite. Despite the stark contrast between her upbringing and that of her peers, Marcus approaches life at Endrun with quiet confidence and an unwavering determination to succeed.
When Akia and Marcus first met at Endrun Academy, their differences were impossible to ignore. Akia, the wealthy and respected heiress, saw Marcus, the scholarship student, as an outsider who didn't belong in her world of privilege. She dismissed Marcus's quiet confidence and hardworking nature, viewing her as nothing more than a charity case. Marcus, however, remained unfazed by Akia's sharp remarks, meeting her disdain with calm intelligence and an unshakable sense of self.
At first, Akia couldn't stand Marcus's presence.
What began as annoyance turned into curiosity, and soon Akia found herself drawn to the very qualities she once despised. Slowly but surely, her icy demeanor thawed, and feelings she never expected began to bloom. Marcus, in her quiet and unassuming way, had done what no one else could-captured the heart of the untouchable Akia.
