On campus, Kian Alpha is invisible. The quiet one. The boy who never raises his voice, never starts trouble, and always seems harmless. To everyone else, he’s just another student — maybe even too soft to survive in a world where reputation is everything. But that’s the mistake they all make. Kian hides in plain sight because he knows what he really is. He knows he carries a darkness worse than the loudest gangs around. And if anyone ever pushed him too far, they’d see it.Adeline Morningstar is the opposite. Everyone knows her name. She’s bold, ruthless, and feared across campus. She plays the mafia role like she was born for it — sharp words, cold looks, and a reputation that makes people step out of her way. But inside, she’s still young. She still feels, still hurts, still carries emotions she doesn’t show. Behind the tough exterior is a girl who hasn’t forgotten how to be human.Their worlds shouldn’t mix. But in the middle of student rivalries, hidden gangs, and the dangerous games played on campus, Kian and Adeline’s paths collide. One is hiding his darkness. The other is hiding her softness. And together, they might discover the truth they’ve both been running from.
