THE BILLIONAIRE'S MASQUERADE

He bought her future with a signature. But what he wants... is her soul.

Aria Winters was only trying to escape her past and earn her degree when she signed the scholarship contract to the elite Blackthorn University. But buried beneath the fine print is a deadly trap; one that binds her to Lucien Vale, the masked billionaire heir who rules the campus like a dark prince.

Lucien doesn't do feelings. He hides behind charm, cruelty, and a mask both literal and emotional. To him, Aria is property. A prize. A pawn in a twisted game.

But what happens when the pawn starts to unravel the player?

In a world of secrets, lies, and betrayals, Aria must decide: surrender to the man who owns her... or tear off the mask and destroy him from the inside.
