"Someone like you… should just rot in hell."



If there was anyone who dared to say it straight to Ezekiel Valeria’s face, it was Shiri Amaris.



And yet, with every word that cut into him, he only fell deeper.



"Can you live without me? Look me in the eyes and say it."

"Say you don’t need me."



New city. New school. New faces.



Shiri Amaris wanted nothing more than to leave the past behind.



She had no plans of getting involved in Imperium High’s power struggles.



Ezekiel was trouble, and she had spent her whole life running from it.



She should hate him but...



Why did it feel like she was running straight toward him?
