Everyone at Ravencourt has something to hide.
Perched in the cold shadows of the mountains, Ravencourt Institute is a school for the brilliant, the broken, and the damned-a last chance for those who have already run out of chances.
When Emily Perret arrives, she's already infamous. The public knows her face. They know what she did. But Ravencourt doesn't care about the headlines, because every student here has a story they'd kill to keep buried. Behind stone walls and iron gates, Emily is thrown into a world ruled by secrets, fear, and power. Among the tangled corridors and fog-draped courtyards, she meets Amara Cross-cold, magnetic, untouchable. The kind of girl who smiles like she already owns your fate.
As alliances form and collapse, and as teachers seem to be hiding even more than the students, Emily begins to uncover something far darker than her past.
A student is about to die, and their death will unravel everything. Loyalties will fracture. Games will turn dangerous. And no one-not even the innocent-looking ones-will escape untouched.
At Ravencourt, nothing is ever what it seems. And survival comes at a price.

Velbridge Academy
Welcome to Velbridge Academy - where royalty, wealth, and legacy aren't just inherited... they're weaponized. Tucked behind gilded gates and hidden from the public eye, Velbridge isn't your typical elite boarding school. It's the academy of the crowned, the heirs of empires, and the future rulers of the world. Power isn't taught here - it's expected. When Lilith Aurelian, an ordinary girl with a quiet past and a sharp mind, earns her place among the thirteen - a group made of royalty, aristocrats, and heirs - she doesn't just step into privilege. She steps into centuries of secrets, tension, and rituals built to break the weak. What begins as icy stares and velvet walls becomes something else entirely. Between intimate spa rooms divided only by curtains, private jets that whisper confessions in the dark, and late-night lounges where power slips through murmured words and steady hands - Lilith discovers that belonging is far more dangerous than exclusion. Friendships bloom. Trust fractures. Love simmers beneath silk robes and stolen glances. And just when the group begins to heal, a single mistake threatens to unravel it all. Because at Velbridge, one wrong move isn't just social suicide - it's legacy death. This is Velbridge: where loyalty is tested, intimacy is a silent language, and the only thing thicker than blood... is the silence that follows betrayal.Complete
