Noeun Academy had always been a place of discipline, prestige, and ambition-until Rina Lee's body was found lifeless in the abandoned music room. Her death was labeled as *unnatural*, the details of her demise whispered behind trembling lips and restless eyes. The school's once-bustling halls now carried an eerie silence, as if the very walls held secrets too sinister to tell.
The investigation was swift, and suspicion fell upon six students-six who had little in common except for one terrifying truth: they were the last ones seen with Rina before she died.
Kai, the quiet and unbothered, whose cold demeanor betrayed nothing. Jungwon, the soon-to-be school president, whose perfect record now bore a fatal stain. Ni-Ki, the troublemaking heartthrob, charming yet dangerous, hiding more than just a reckless streak. Keira, the popular bully, known for making lives miserable-but had she finally taken things too far? Bella, the invisible girl, blending into the background so effortlessly that no one ever noticed her... until now. Aecha, the school topper, brilliant and calculated, with a mind sharp enough to orchestrate anything.
Each of them had a reason to be with Rina.
But as the days passed and fear turned into paranoia, something became clear-Rina's death was not as it seemed. The deeper they dug, the more twisted the truth became. Whispers turned into warnings. Nightmares into reality. The six students, once strangers, found themselves bound by a connection none of them understood.
Because Rina had left them something before she died.
And now, whatever had killed her... was coming for them next.
Y/N's life had always been sheltered, tucked away with her mother in a quiet corner of the city. Her father's absence, a void that echoed through their home, had left her wary and distant, especially around boys. There was a reason for her guardedness-a betrayal that had wounded her young heart and taught her to keep her distance.
Then, the winds of fate shifted. Y/N's mother, seeking a fresh start, announced her marriage to an ex-mafia leader. In an instant, Y/N's world tilted on its axis. She would soon be thrust into a new reality, living under the same roof with seven mafia stepbrothers.
Tension brewed like a gathering storm. Y/N's apprehension mounted. What kind of men were these stepbrothers? Could she trust them, or would she be swallowed whole by their world of secrecy and danger?
In the mansion that would soon be her new home.
As she prepared to step into this new chapter of her life, Y/N couldn't help but wonder: Would she find refuge in the midst of her seven mafia stepbrothers, or would she be consumed by the shadows they cast? The answer lay in the uncertain future that awaited her, where trust was a luxury and survival a necessity.
A beautiful story of pure and unbreakable bond of brother and sister ❤️
