Knights of Arcanum Academy
Bella Holiday - 2019
So, of course, Arcanum Academy has four. And worse? Not only are they equipped with looks that could kill, but they've got magic, too. Lachlan. Alexander. Sebastian. Gabriel. These boys are strictly off limits. Taboo. So high in a class of their own, I’d be surprised if they even knew my name… Even with me being stuck in each one of their classes. Not that I care. The conceited asshats think their god-like bodies, expensive cars and filthy attitudes make them the most desirable beings to ever have had the disprivilege to walk the halls of the Academy. And they act like they have some big secret only they’re good enough to know about. But I can say that, without a doubt, I'd rather eat dirt than spend time with any one of their elitist boys club, let alone care about their stupid secret. Because what they don’t know is, I've got a secret of my own. One they’d do anything in their power to find out… Including making my life a living hell.
