A student is sold to a secret society leader and bound by a ritual at an elite academy.
At an elite aristocratic academy, Kai leads a concealed brotherhood whose authority rests on the Vow, a ceremony that names a single Chosen One and grants the leader complete command. Elena does not enroll voluntarily; she is delivered to Kai as purchased property and immediately subjected to the rite. The ritual severs her autonomy and silences her voice, transforming corridors and classrooms into arenas where his will is absolute and her agency nonexistent.
