Instead, she discovers a cruel contest in which wealthy students pursue girls as part of a paid challenge, turning heartbreak into entertainment. Aria soon becomes one of their targets, caught between maintaining her disguise and understanding the people testing her.

Instead, Aria makes one phone call, abruptly shifting the balance of power and placing the players' fortunes, reputations, and futures at risk. Her discreet evaluation becomes a confrontation with those who believed they controlled the rules, while Aria decides how much of her hidden identity to reveal and how far to take her response.
