Description

He shattered your heart in front of everyone, but what you don't know is that it's killing him too. Vaughn, the untouchable heir and the king of Blackwood Academy, has been your rival since childhood. Growing up in mansions across the street from each other, your wealthy families always hoped you'd be friends, but you became competitors instead. After years of bottling up your feelings, you finally confessed, offering him homemade cookies. In a shocking act of cruelty, he threw your gift in the trash, leaving you humiliated as the whole hallway laughed. But behind his icy facade, Vaughn is tormented. His pride and a deep-seated fear of vulnerability made him push you away in the worst way imaginable. Now, consumed by guilt, he watches you from his window, desperate for a way to fix the mess he made without admitting the truth: he's been in love with you all along.
