Their lives take a dramatic turn when Tucker returns three years later and a rival gang targets them, leading to a brutal attack that leaves them scarred both physically and emotionally.

8 parts Ongoing
For years, Righley fought a losing battle against the bullies who made her life a nightmare. No matter how strong she tried to be, she always ended up bruised, beaten, and alone. But one day while going home after getting beaten up, she crossed paths with her mother-whose quiet yet intense anger spoke louder than any words. That night, her mother came home with unexpected news, "Pack your things. We're leaving." Without explanation, Righley was uprooted from everything she knew and thrown into a world that made no sense-a prestigious academy for the wealthy elite. Academy for Cultivating Excellence in Higher Intelligence (A.C.E.H.I.) was unlike any school she had ever seen, filled with heirs, geniuses, and future tycoons. But the biggest mystery of all? How did she even get in? They weren't rich. She never applied for a scholarship. And yet, here she was. As she struggles to adjust to this new school, two unexpected figures enter her life- Acier Riane Romero, the cold yet brilliant basketball star, and Jeremiah Xander Dawson, the laid-back troublemaker who never seems to take anything seriously. In this new world, Righley will face jealousy, rivalry, and hidden agendas. She'll discover friendship, adventure, and maybe even love. But nothing can prepare her for the truth buried in her past-the truth her mother has been hiding all along. Who is she? What is the secret that brought her to this school? And will she be ready to face it when the truth finally comes to light?
