The Elites of Edgewood Prep

Kaiden: King of Edgewood Prep. Nobody dares to cross me with the darkness that consumes my soul. So when the pretty little Catherine O’Farrell walks into my kingdom and away from me, I’m more determined than ever to break her. My demons cheer for a new victim...but Catherine turns out to be anything but a victim. She can try all she wants to fight back, but she’ll soon learn there’s only one way to survive her senior year; bow to the king or die trying.

Catherine: Kaiden Monaghan has me locked in his sights. He may be king of Edgewood Prep, but his schoolboy antics don’t bother me. I’ve met the devil and have the scars to prove it. Determined to keep my dark secrets buried down deep, I keep my head down and try to get through the school days. But Kaiden has other plans and tries his hardest to break me. There's just one thing he doesn't know; you can’t break somebody who’s already broken.

Xander: Death. Destruction. Demoralization. My life may look picture perfect from the outside, but inside...there's nothing but heartache. The only good that was ever in my life was Penny. But as the years went by, I realized I bring bad luck to all those I care about. Distancing myself from her is my only option now. I've found myself in some hot water and can't let Penny get close to me. But as the days go by, I realize my innocent Penny is anything but. Determined to save her once again, I now have to prove myself to her. I've hurt her over the years with petty bullying, and now I have to pay. Will I be able to show my true feelings to her before it's too late?

Penny: In the past few months, I've watched my life crumble before my eyes. Everything I've ever know, ripped away in an instant. My perfect world, gone. I've lost my will to be who I was, losing myself in self-destruction. My friends and family try to help, but when you've hit rock bottom, there's nowhere to go. My self destructive tendencies turn on me, taking down the people I care about and the one person I despise is the one who can help end it all; Xander. But our friendship has crashed and burned, there's no coming back for it...right?

Danny: Darkness envelops my life, my world, and my heart. It is a void that I have grown accustomed to, until the day a small, tempting butterfly flutters in. With its delicate wings and vibrant colors, it disrupts the monochrome existence I have come to accept. Becca embodies everything that I have always tried to avoid - recklessness, impulsivity, and chaos. And yet, when I touch her, my hands find solace in her warmth. She allows me to use her, to release my inner demons upon her. But even as I do, I cannot deny the exhilaration and sense of liberation it brings me. Becca is a whirlwind that has invaded my dark world, leaving behind a trail of destruction and desires. But will this last? Or will she flutter away leaving me in darkness once again?

Becca: Sick. Twisted. Depraved. These are the words that have been used to describe me, and yet I embrace them. For in my darkness lies a hidden desire, a yearning for pain that consumes me and makes me feel truly alive. Ever since Katya left, I have closed off my heart and built tall walls around it, refusing to let anyone in. But then came Danny, with his own twisted desires that matched mine, and he broke through those walls, tearing them down as he fulfilled my darkest fantasies. In his arms, I finally feel whole again, succumbing to the pleasure and pain that courses through my veins. But how do we make this last when I’ve never planned past my eighteenth birthday?
