Story Notes

Summary

At Sterling Academy, perfection isn't just expected—it's demanded. Backed by centuries of tradition and power, it's where the world's wealthiest and most influential families send their children to be shaped into heirs. Anastasia Dupont has spent years trying to forget one night, one boy, and one mistake. But when an old, cryptic book resurfaces, and students begin falling ill and mysteriously disappearing after mandatory blood drives, Anastasia finds herself pulled into a web of secrets far darker than she ever imagined. Alongside her closest friends—including Alistair Sinclair, the boy she once trusted—Anastasia must uncover the truth behind the academy's polished facade before they lose one of their own forever. Because now at Sterling, promises aren't just empty words whispered in the dark. They're sacred. They're survival. And they might just be the only thing capable of keeping you alive.
