Colton Warner is the archetype of a trust fund heir, a textbook nepo baby who carries himself like he owns Warner Hill Academy. In many ways, he does.
WHA isn't a school for just anyone. Its towering fees ensure that only the wealthiest and most elite can walk its halls. And as the son of its owners, Colton has always moved above the rules. Untouchable. Unquestioned. Or so he believed.
Until he went too far.
What began as another act of cruelty spiraled into something far darker. Because Colton isn't just a bully. He's a tyrant.
Known for his volatile temper and vicious streak, he thrives on control, on fear. At WHA, survival means staying invisible, obeying without question, or leaving altogether. But even escape offers no guarantee. Once you're on his radar, you belong to him. He'll break you down piece by piece until you're begging at his feet, as though he were something to be worshipped.
But Colton isn't a god.
He's something far worse.
Now, he's found a new target.
Alison Young.
A scholarship student. An anomaly at Warner Hill Academy, where wealth has always been the only currency that matters. Her admission is unprecedented, a way to restore the school's image.
Alison, with her exceptional academic record and near-perfect scores, was the ideal candidate. Brilliant. Unassuming. Replaceable. She has no idea she's just been offered to the devil.
