the alliances

At St. Duvall Academy, excellence isn't a goal - it's survival.

Han Joon-seo, the school's top student, has built his reputation on perfection. Discipline. Control. No one gets close enough to see the cracks forming beneath his polished calm.

Enter Alexei Volkov - a Russian transfer student with a sharp tongue, impossible talent, and zero respect for boundaries. He's brilliant, infuriating, and somehow
always one step ahead.

They're assigned as roommates. Then as partners. And suddenly, every late-night argument, every stolen glance across the dorm room, starts to blur the line between rivalry and something neither of them is ready to name.
But beneath the pride and sarcasm, both boys are unraveling - Joon-seo under the weight of his own expectations, Alexei under the ghosts of everything he left behind.

And when competition gives way to concern, their unlikely alliance might be the only thing that saves them from themselves.
