Nevan

Nevan almost killed your best friend in the academy trials. Branded. Lethal. Bound by a blood-debt to the ruling families. He mocked your stubborn hope, your naive strength, your refusal to break. You thought the final trials were about survival. They were about selection. They assigned him as your handler. To crush your optimism. To put you in your place. He hates you for thinking you can save him. But he stands between you and the syndicate's elite. Watching you. Guarding his only hope.
