Legacy Bound

The elite socialize together, scheme together, and sometimes marry one another, but beneath polished galas and pristine campuses lies a hidden world of criminal dynasties, political bloodlines, billion-dollar corporations, secret societies, and inherited violence.

Every student already belongs to someone’s empire.

Except you. Transferred into Avaricelle under circumstances few people understand, you quickly becomes the subject of quiet curiosity. Some see opportunity. Others see weakness. A few suspect there’s a reason someone with no visible legacy has suddenly appeared among heirs who have been preparing for this world since birth.

Aleksandr Melnikov doesn’t believe in coincidences. When he notices you at an underground party hidden beneath Atherstone’s polished surface, his attention isn’t captured by beauty.

Convinced you is hiding something, he begins quietly observing from a distance. What begins as professional curiosity slowly becomes something far more dangerous as every answer only raises more questions.

Meanwhile, rival families form alliances, Trial Weeks approach, underground politics intensify, and dangerous eyes begin settling on the newest student in Atherstone.

In a town where reputation is currency and bloodlines determine destinies, becoming someone’s obsession may be safer than becoming everyone’s target.
