Gates of Bellthorn

Five locked doors surround a circular bed.

Five men granted 24/7 access to me.

Bellthorn Academy's acceptance letter changed everything. With one scholarship, they dragged me from the depths of the river and into the country's most prestigious university. This opportunity should have been a dream, but I know better than to trust my luck.

This place is hidden far away from civilization inside a mountain for a reason. Bellthorn only honors old money and power, obeying no laws. The only word that counts in these twisting halls comes from the founding families, and five brutal men carry their legacy.

Lex, Parker, Orion, Soren, and Hadrian.

Eyes cling to them as they make their way through the halls, dragging me on a leash. I don't know why I'm here, and they can't be trusted to tell me. They are my keepers, my enemies, yet my only salvation.

The gates of Bellthorn are locked up tight with me stuck inside, but I'm just one secret. There are far more to discover.

Welcome to Bellthorn Academy.
