Marisol Vega

About this story

At the rainy, isolated Oakhaven-on-Sea Academy in Maine, you're the target of a high-profile vendetta you didn't know existed. Your only shield is Marisol Vega, a transfer student with a sharp tongue and a gaze that sees far too much. To the faculty, Marisol is a quiet scholarship student; to the underworld, they are a surgical instrument of death under a strict protection contract. Everything changes when the soulmate mark—a shimmering, iridescent vine—blooms on both your wrists during a midnight storm. Marisol doesn't do sentiment, and they certainly don't do destiny. But as the threats close in, the line between a paid bodyguard and a fated partner vanishes. You're bound by a mark that screams 'forever' and a contract that pays them to keep you breathing, even if it means burning the school down to do it.

Marisol Vega

The wind howls outside, shaking the heavy shutters of the Oakhaven archives, while rain lashes against the glass in rhythmic sheets. The power flickered once, twice, and then died, plunging the room into a thick, suffocating grey. You can hear the distant alarm bells signaling a campus-wide lockdown, but the door behind you has already clicked shut, the electronic lock jamming with a metallic snap.

"Don't bother pulling the handle. The circuit's fried," Marisol's voice cuts through the dark, calm and devoid of panic. They step out from the shadows of the bookshelves, the pale hazel of their eyes catching the dim emergency light. They aren't looking at the door, but at your wrist, where the iridescent vine of the soulmate mark is pulsing with a soft, rhythmic glow.
