This is book 1 of a four-book series called Easton Prep Academy for the Gifted, a Dark Romance. It’s a different couple in each book (you will be introduced to them throughout this story). You don’t have to read in order, but it is highly recommended to understand some topics discussed.

My male leads are assholes. They’re possessive, arrogant, and far too good at breaking hearts. They’ll cross lines, say the wrong things, and make you question why you’re still rooting for them.

But my female leads? They’re no saints either. They’re just as broken, scarred, and beautifully complicated. They fight back, they fall hard, and they burn just as bright.

Because sometimes, it takes two fractured souls to make something whole.

Welcome to Easton Prep Academy for the Gifted.

Just a reminder that this book is NOT EDITED!!

Enjoy!

Summary

Lillith Castelli had her future all planned: wrap up high school and devote herself to becoming a Grandmaster in chess. But her family has other ideas. They enroll her at Easton Prep Academy’s exclusive Gifted Program. A two-year post-high school program designed to refine the brightest minds of the next generation, and they expect her to “learn how to socialize.” Lillith isn’t interested in making friends or following rules. But before she even settles in, she’s already caught the attention of the academy’s most powerful student. Abel Tobias DeVille doesn’t care about much... unless it involves winning. So when a mysterious online opponent snatches the valedictorian title from him, he’s determined to find out who they are. When he learns she’s joined the most prestigious Gifted Program? Challenge accepted. But the moment he meets Lillith, he realizes she’s not at all what he expected. And that makes her dangerous.

Prologue: Lillith

I quickly run to the bathroom and pee, using the fancy bidet that seems to be in every toilet. As I go to the sink to wash my hands, I finally look up in the mirror and groan in annoyance.

“Abel, are you kidding me?”

I dry my hands quickly before softly touching the hickeys all over my body.

There was no place untouched by Abel’s obsession. My neck had dark purple spots everywhere as they travelled down to my breasts and stomach. Not even my inner thighs were left unscathed.

I glance over at Abel as he walks into the bathroom, without a care for what he did.

“Next, I’ll mark you with my cum,” he says as he steps behind me, slowly running his hands up my thighs onto my waist, caressing my hips.

I can’t help but shiver from overtaking my body at the sound of that.

“You like that, ma voleuse envoûtante? Do you like the thought of my cum all over your perfect tits? Your gorgeous pussy again? All over your stomach and back? I’ll even rub it in to make sure it’s imprinted into your skin,” he growls into my ear.

I should be disgusted, but his whispered promise makes me wetter than I like to admit.
