At the Westlake University, Eleanore Salvacion and Santiago Alcaraz have spent years at war-academic titans, intellectual equals, and sworn enemies. They're obsessed with outscoring each other, pushing harder, being better. The rivalry is their everything-until it starts turning into something else. Because if they're supposed to hate each other, then why does Ellie notice the way Sanjo's jaw clenches when she beats him on an exam? Why does Sanjo feel a sick sort of thrill every time she glares at him in a lecture hall? And why does their rivalry feel less like competition and more like foreplay? First, it was grades. Then, it was bodies. Now, it’s something far worse—because rivalry has a way of bleeding into obsession. And no matter how many times they try to walk away, the effect remains: they are each other’s greatest competition… and their greatest downfall. [18+]

In the year 4367, space is no longer the final frontier—it’s a playground for the rich, a network of luxury stations, high-stakes casinos, and floating estates orbiting the dying planet below. Earth, overcrowded and crumbling under political chaos, is a prison for those who can’t afford to leave. The universe belongs to the powerful. Or so they think. Emerald Voss never asked for a legacy. She built her own fortune through a wildly successful startup, but her father’s name still looms over her—one of the wealthiest resort tycoons in the galaxy, a man who owns entire moons. She’s never had to fight for anything, never had to care about anything beyond the next exclusive party or million-credit business deal. But all of that changes when one reckless, sleep-deprived decision leads her to stumble—half-conscious and starving—into the office of Lumina Zevaris. Lumina is a Krexal, a hulking reptilian warrior-diplomat feared across the stars. As one of the galactic ambassadors, she holds the fragile peace between humanity and the ancient alien civilizations that barely tolerate them. Cold, calculating, and battle-scarred, Lumina has spent years ensuring that humans don’t push too far, don’t step on the wrong toes, don’t ignite a war they can’t win. But the war is already here. A shadow moves across the galaxy—something ancient, something powerful, something that sees humans and all their petty wealth as nothing more than fuel. The great space stations and their golden towers will burn. The rich will flee, but there will be nowhere left to run. And somehow, Emerald is at the center of it all. She doesn’t know why. She doesn’t know how. But the universe—cold, uncaring, and infinite—has chosen her. And whether she likes it or not, she’s about to learn that some things are worth fighting for. That money can’t buy survival. And that in the end, the universe owes her nothing. This is the universe owes her nothing by yours truly. This is for an english project lmao.
