16 parts Ongoing MatureSamantha Hale was never supposed to cross the tracks. Born and raised on the Northside of Riverdale, she was the kind of girl the Southside Serpents loved to hate-polished, sharp-tongued, and far too fearless for her own good. When she's forced to transfer to Southside High after her family's quiet downfall, the last thing she expects is to find herself wrapped up in the chaos of gang life...or in the orbit of Sweet Pea.
He's everything she's been warned about-tall, reckless, and carved from the kind of danger that keeps you up at night. To him, she's just another Northsider playing dress-up in a Serpent's world. To her, he's infuriating, arrogant, and impossible to ignore. Every glance is a challenge. Every word, a fight waiting to happen.
But hate burns hot. And somewhere between late-night arguments and stolen glances under the flicker of neon lights, that fire turns into something else-something neither of them can name.
When a deal gone wrong forces them to work together, lines blur. Enemies become allies. And in the shadows of Riverdale's underbelly, secrets are born. They tell themselves it's just tension, just a temporary truce-until the sneaking around becomes addictive, and their lies begin to taste like love.
Now, every whispered confession is a risk. Every kiss could ruin them. Because in the world of the Serpents, loyalty is everything...and falling for the wrong person can destroy you both.
He was the bite she never saw coming.
She was the poison he couldn't resist.
And once you're bitten by a Serpent, you never heal.
