Living With My Bully Alpha

“At Blackthorne Academy, reputation is everything. The powerful rule effortlessly. The weak learn to survive quietly. And once someone becomes a target, everyone joins the hunt. Lyra Voss learned that lesson the hard way. As a scholarship student surrounded by wealthy Alpha heirs, staying invisible was supposed to protect her. Instead, one mistake-and one cruel moment involving Kaiden Draven-turned her into the center of humiliation she could never fully escape. Kaiden never touched her. Never openly destroyed her. He simply stood there while everyone else did. And somehow, that hurt worse. Now, months later, Lyra wants only one thing: to finish school, take care of her sick mother, and stay as far away from Kaiden Draven as possible. But life has other plans. After losing her job and falling deeper into debt, Lyra is forced to accept a live-in position at Blackthorne Palace. The home of the very boy who helped ruin her life. Living under the same roof as Kaiden becomes unbearable in ways neither of them expected. Because the more time he spends around her, the more the version of Lyra he believed in begins to fall apart. She is not weak. Not attention-seeking. Not what he was taught to hate. And worst of all? She no longer seems affected by him at all. But when old secrets surrounding their families begin resurfacing, Kaiden is forced to confront the truth about the past-and about himself. Because protecting Lyra may cost him everything. And for the first time in his life, Kaiden Draven is no longer afraid of losing his reputation. He is afraid of losing her.”
