Shadows of the Renegade Freshman
By @Dont hack acount
Fifteen-year-old Erebus wants nothing more than to blend into the background of Neo-Veridia High. He sleeps through lectures, never smiles, and hides a lethal mastery of stealth and hand-to-hand combat beneath a baggy hoodie. Driven by the trauma of watching his family erased by the city's authoritarian regime, his entire existence is anchored to his only two friends: Luke, a calm, sword-wielding, emotionally wise anchor, and Meelo, a fiercely loyal but utterly reckless idiot. Erebus would gladly die to keep them safe. But when a routine school physical triggers a dormant cybernetic tracker in his blood, the ruthless Sector Peacekeepers deploy to hunt him down. To protect his found family, Erebus must abandon the shadows, weaponize his deadly training, and lead his friends into a high-tech underground rebellion. Survival means choosing between staying hidden or burning the corrupt establishment to the ground to keep those he loves alive.

In the rain-slicked streets of Pearlview, Sylvester De'Vonte builds a sanctuary for lost children, desperate to prove he is nothing like the sister who abandoned him. But his fragile control shatters when Enzo, a charismatic and wealthy benefactor, forces his way into the orphanage's management. Enzo is pushy, brilliant, and utterly relentless, stripping Sylvester of his hard-won authority under the guise of 'helping.' As their fiery arguments over finances and discipline turn into a psychological chess match, Sylvester finds his defenses crumbling. Enzo's sharp charm and endless banter mask a deeper, darker obsession—one focused entirely on breaking Sylvester's fierce independence. Caught in a claustrophobic battle of wills within the very walls meant to protect the innocent, Sylvester must navigate Enzo's suffocating affection. Every touch is a challenge, every smile a trap. To save his orphanage and his own mind, Sylvester must confront his deepest vulnerabilities before Enzo takes over everything he has left.
