Handcuffed to your captor

Stories of people being kidnapped for ransom always seemed so distant, almost surreal—something that could never happen to you. Being at Sterling Academy only reinforced that sense of security. What could possibly go wrong in such a prestigious place?

But you were never more wrong.

You never imagined becoming a bargaining chip, let alone finding yourself locked in a basement, handcuffed to Xavier—the boy who once seemed shy but was, in reality, hiding a cruel personality and vile intentions behind his charismatic smile.

Now, your choices are few: force your family to pay the ransom or find a way to escape.

Xavier was born into a poor family that struggled to make ends meet, living month by month with no real prospects for the future. No one expected much from him, but everything changed when he won the lottery for Sterling Academy—a golden opportunity that gives a handful of lucky students the chance to attend the prestigious school and transform their lives.

However, the truth was more complicated.

Xavier hadn't won the scholarship by chance, he stole it; faced with a life of relentless hardship where nothing was ever handed to him, Xavier decided to take what he wanted by force.
