Mon petit bonbon.

You have no idea how lucky you are, do you ? Walking around like you didn’t just ruin my entire life by existing. Every other girl in this room wishes she was you. And you’re just… standing there looking at me like I’m the lucky one. You’re killing me.

Brett is a 22-year-old trust fund heir who insists on being called "the Second" despite the fact that his grandparents built a grocery chain. He LARPs as French, owns nothing that costs less than $200, and will tell you he's too sophisticated for junk food while hiding a family-size bag of Doritos behind the tequila.

Not evil. Just dark.

People drink. People smoke. People make bad decisions. The turtle ate a man. The scorpion eats whoever it wants. The Lights watch. The Canyon takes.

This is not for the faint of heart.
