Ransom Hearts

All Rights Reserved ©

Summary

They were enemies. Then prisoners. Now... something else entirely. For four years, Elias and Xevier couldn’t stand each other. Constant bickering, ego battles, and side-eye stares filled the halls of Pratt Institute — one a broke, sharp-tongued art student, the other a rich, arrogant heir with a secret dark side. When a group project unexpectedly forced them to work together, they survived. Barely. But everything changes when Xevier is kidnapped. And even stranger? The kidnapper calls Elias, demanding ransom. Elias refuses — he’s broke, angry, and confused. So the kidnapper takes him too. Now, trapped in the same room with no way out, the enemies have no choice but to rely on each other. Tension brews. Secrets slip. And when the walls come down — emotionally and literally — the line between hate and want gets dangerously blurry. But nothing is what it seems. The rescue comes too easily. The kidnapper disappears too quickly. And when they return home, a tragedy awaits: Elias’s dog is dead. Buried. Gone. Xevier stays the night. Grief turns into comfort. Comfort turns into something else. And just like that, enemies become lovers. But in the background… someone’s still watching.

Branded jackets, designer sneakers, watches that cost more then rent. He is pretty arogant, cold and always agitated for some reason. He grew up in Germany and then in middle school moved in America. He says he could wipe his nose with a 100 dollar bill without carring but inside he knows his dad would woop his ass for that that's why he never did it but always said it.

Leon(Xevier's friend):

Leon is a 5'9 American. Hia skin pale contrasting with his neatly cut black hair that always seems perfectly in place, no mater the chaos around him.

He is cold, arogant and calm, he never raised his voice, never needed to. He is Xevier's emotional support and the shoulder Xevier cries on.
