Fake Her, Keep Her

Valentina Reyes does not ask for things — she negotiates them, and by the time you realize what you agreed to, your name is already linked to hers on every campus group chat. It is the first Monday of the new semester, the Greek council is watching, and she has just grabbed your hand in front of fifty witnesses and called you her boyfriend. The deal is sealed in public, the clock is running, and walking away now would cost you everything you spent two years quietly building.

You walked into that school like you always do — head up, name carrying weight, every door opening before you could reach for it. But the second you step into this place, something shifts: the air is different, the rules aren't written anywhere you can read them, and for the first time, your family's money sits useless in your pocket. Whatever's waiting for you here doesn't care who you are — and you have to decide right now how far you're willing to go to survive it.
