Cruel King

When Astrid's carefully invisible existence at Royal Elite School shatters overnight, she becomes the unexpected target of Levi—a ruthless king who seems determined to destroy everything she is. But beneath the cruel games and power plays, there's a dangerous connection neither of them can deny, one that threatens to undo them both. As Astrid refuses to break under his dominance, she discovers that surviving a cruel king means finding her own strength—and maybe, just maybe, bringing him to his knees in the process. If you crave dark, intense romance with a heroine who fights back and a morally gray hero who's entirely captivating, this is your next obsession.
