At Deucalion Academy, we don't have a graduation rate. We have a survival rate.In the academy, power and ferocity are held above all.So you can imagine how popular it made me when on my first day, I got our strongest demigod warrior killed.The entire school, from the headmaster to the kitchenhands, hates me. None of them lift a finger after the leader of the Titan Class pins a target on my back.Alexander Damien rules Deucalion Academy by his power alone. A son of Zeus, he sizzles the blood with a touch, and a smirk.No one stands a chance of staying above ground once he decides your life is forfeit.For everyone's sake, they better pray Alexander and the Titans destroy me.Something was done to me. A god's curse is warping my powers and turning me into a creature deadlier than we've ever faced. Unless the divine betrayer holding my chains is stopped, all the monsters of Olympia mean nothing.The one who'll lay waste to our land and wipe the demigods from existence... is me.
It wasn't supposed to be like this.Evergreen Academy was meant to be my fresh start. My hair was on point. My skin was flawless. And now I wore the hell out of my clothes instead of hiding them.Even running into Ryder hadn't thrown me. So what that the silver-eyed devil who tormented me for years now ruled my new school with a band of boys everyone called the Knights. The four of them were devastatingly rich, enviously handsome... and heartbreakingly cruel.But the Evergreen Knights didn't scare me. I had my own plans and no reason to enter their little world... until one fateful night and a masquerade ball changed everything.I saw something I shouldn't have and now I've been Marked.They'll do everything they can to break me but they don't know the monsters I've faced. They don't know I've been broken before.If they want to take on Valentina Moon... bring it on.
They broke me.Ryder, Maverick, Ezra, and Jaxson didn't think I would come back for my second year.The coldly cruel knights of Evergreen believed the Mark would be all it took to get rid of me... to keep me quiet.But now I've got a whole new reason to stay. Those four will know a pain far worse than what I've endured.They tore me apart until there was nothing left... and now I'm going to return the favor.
Five people bound by the most terrible secret... and something else.I never thought I could forgive them. I didn't believe there was still a heart inside of me that could forgive. But my boys, my knights, were taking down my walls and claiming a piece for themselves.All I wanted was to lock our secret away and enter junior year as though the past never happened......but someone won't let me.Someone knows what we did and the price for their silence may be more than I can give.The game will only grow more vicious until lines are drawn in the battle for who truly rules Evergreen Academy.
They are everything to me.I love Jaxson, Ezra, Maverick, and Ryder the same and in vastly different ways all at once. It's a love that threatens to consume me. To take over every waking second of my final year......if only hidden enemies, ancient secret societies, and unsolved murders weren't also competing for my attention.This will be my hardest term yet.Not just for the horror of the present, but for the uncertainty of my future. How can I have a life with my knights when someone is determined that I don't survive my senior year at all?But I will find them. I will expose them.And by the end... only one will be left standing.
ValentinaEvergreen Academy was supposed to be my fresh start......and Somerset University my second chance.All I wanted was normal. Normal classes. Normal professors. Normal sorority.I wanted the Somerset Sallys to be like every other Greek house.I wanted the pretty, fun, sweet sisters to be genuine. I wanted the smile of their enigmatic leader not to conceal a secret.And I wanted the story they told me to be true.I should have known that was too much to ask.EzraSomerset University was the first step.I'd make excellent grades, better connections, and take over the Media Maven's empire.Joining a fraternity wasn't part of the plan. Neither was stumbling into a disturbing plot, witnessing a kidnapping, and having the world think I'm delusional.The Somerset Sams are not what they seem, and when they struck, they brought me to my knees.But I am not what I appear to be either. Beneath the charming persona is the man who'll protect the woman he loves at all costs.For Valentina Moon, I will be what I have to be.Ruthless.
ValentinaI don't know the secrets that lurk within my sorority, and apparently neither does anyone else.My search for the truth behind the disappearances meets with blank stares and pleas of innocence.But someone knows.They're watching. They're waiting. They're hiding. They're attacking the man I love.The only way to put an end to it is to bend the Sallys to my will.I'm taking over and hunting the kidnappers down.Before the next person to disappear is me.JaxsonValentina and I share a lot of things: a love of music, dancing, and the feeling that someone is out to get me.A year of playing servant to the wealthy, demanding, and talented is what I expected.But I wasn't ready for sabotage, malicious whispers, and an unknown enemy following me wherever I go.Wicked is the one who promises with their lips but lies with their eyes.When the unthinkable happens and Valentina is taken, I make a promise of my own.I will save the woman I love... and destroy anyone who gets in my way.
MaverickThe more answers I unearthed, the less I understood.I stepped into this game not knowing the rules, and now, they're playing me to their beat.Old faces reappear.New friends circle.I got closer to the puppeteer as they got ever closer to me.And when they struck, I wasn't ready.ValentinaA queen sacrifices for her subjects.A president makes the hard decisions.And a girlfriend does whatever has to be done.I'm all three, and for my friends, sisters, and love, I'll bring the Sallys and Sams to their knees.
ValentinaThe only thing I know for sure is I don't know anything at all.Zeta Rho Sigma was never just a sorority and I was never really in control. A point they drove home when they toppled the final chess piece.The man I love is gone. A wall of silence and blank faces surround me. Every day I sense I'm getting tangled tighter in someone's web.I will find the truth.I will get him back.And the Sallys and Sams will be brought to their knees.RyderNow, I'm pissed
My parents forgot something when they ran... me.After scamming most of our town out of their life savings, my folks disappeared in the middle of the night.Forced to take me in, my estranged aunt and uncle shipped me off to Raven River Academy the first chance they got.In my town, the line between the haves and the have-nots is actually a twelve-foot gate that keep the unwanted where they belong. Nothing could unite the two factions until I set foot on campus.For the first time in our history, they all agree on one thing: I must pay for my father's sins.But why should I care?The joke is on them because I have nothing left inside. No part of me that isn't already broken. I invite them to do their worst.Until The Angels enter the game.The most dangerous gang in town has a score to settle with my family, and Cassius, Clay, Hiro, and Royal are here to collect.Raven River soon becomes a battleground of lies, deceit, and violence, and I stand at the heart of it.The gorgeous otherworldly Angels will remind me that there is one thing left that I care about... and they'll destroy it in heavenly fire.
I knew when I started this path it would lead to destruction......but nothing could have prepared me for this.Drugs flooding campus. Tensions brewing between the factions. Old enemies reappearing. New secrets taking over my life. Love awakening a soul I long thought was dead.Cassius, Clay, Hiro, and Royal have named me one of them, but sharing a title is easy. Can we share all that comes with it?I'll be tested in ways I'm not prepared for-by enemies and loves alike. There's more going on with the academy, the Horsemen, and my parents' disappearance than I knew. What I do know is following that path will be dangerous.I can't tell who the angels, demons, or devils are anymore.I just know they're all after me.
It doesn't feel like the end.It feels like all of my problems are just beginning.There's more happening in my town of Raven River than I knew.More lies. More secrets. More pain.Enemies seen and unseen are circling and not even my guardian angels can protect me.There's a war coming and I'll fight because this time my Angels...My Horsemen...My loves......are the ones who need saving.
It's a common story. I'm sure you can guess how it goes.Girl winds up in the wrong place at the wrong time.She witnesses four gods of beauty and brutality murder some poor sap, and she's stupid enough to get caught.Come on. You know what happens next.You know they tracked her... me... down.I don't need to tell you that they claimed me. Ripped me from my safe, perfect world and bound me in chains to their throne.All of that is obvious.It's the part where they corrupted me, dragged me into their world of death and destruction, made me theirs in every way I didn't know was possible, and I became a soldier in a war that will bring all of Cinco City to its knees......that's when it gets interesting.
They ripped me from my safe, perfect world and bound me in chains.Now it's Cash's turn. The cold, hard, analytical leader has a problem he needs me to solve, and he's not asking.I've got problems of my own too. I'm falling for a man who refuses to love me, on top of fending off a threat determined to destroy me. Like I don't have enough of that going on already.As the search for Kieran ramps up, a few new players enter the scene. My boys will have me on the front lines. And Cash will have me bare, stripped, and vulnerable to his mercy.The time will come when I have to make a choice: Right or wrong?Love or money?Me or Cash?All I know is, one way or another, the war between us will end.
The nature of the game has changed.But my feelings for my guys haven't.As the search for Kieran intensifies, the battle between us reaches its pitch. And in every fight, Brutal shows up to win.My silent, savage love has his own reasons for starting this war, and nothing will get in his way.Something we have in common.I will defeat the undefeatable Brutal. I'll bring him into my loud, chaotic world and make him mine.In spite of the Kings.In spite of Kieran.In spite of the ledger.Brutal will bend his heart to me.I've never lost a fight either.
Decades ago, three men started a war......today, I win it.I had a plan.Step one: Steal the ledger.Step two: Takeover Cinco City.Simple, right?Nowhere in there was I supposed to fall in love with the men who knocked my plan off course.Saint, Cash, Brutal, and Mercer are everything to me. A fact I should not have let slip.A battle rages and only the last man standing claims victory.I must take back what's mine amid deception, lies, and a city-wide gang war laying waste to all in its path.The question is will the men I love be standing with me?
Our enemies are everywhere......and we can't see them.The Brotherhood has us in their sights. In their scope.The attacks are coming from everywhere and nowhere from a seemingly invisible enemy. But they won't be invisible for long.When we discover how the Brotherhood manages to stay five steps ahead, it's up to me to find and stop the traitor.The only problem is it requires me to revisit a place I swore I'd never go: my past.The battle for the city we love is heating up. The Brotherhood challenges the Merchants' right to rule, and Genny and the Savage Princes don't give a f*ck.Cinco is theirs and they'll fight to the death to protect it.And me... well, I just might be their secret weapon.
The town of Bedlam was born of rioters, revolt, pain, and murder.Over a hundred years later, nothing has changed.A shadow clings to our lives. Stalking, watching, waiting, taunting, and killing. And when it struck, I wasn't ready.I have to play their game now. Catch them, kill them, before Ruckus Royale or they'll claim another sacrifice.The trouble is a new band of outlaws are in charge, and Arsenio, Cairo, Jacques, Legend, and Roan don't take well to people ruining their fun.On the one night a year where anything goes, mayhem will sweep through the streets and the Kings of Ruckus will rule.I have my orders. A life to save and a life to take.And when my punishment comes for framing the Bedlam Boys, I'll welcome it. I'll let them free me of the sweet, innocent girl I never got to be.Under their twisted, scorching love I will atone for the crimes paid and the ones still to come.In the end, Bedlam will be brought to its knees to bow before its first queen.
