I should've DNF this. I know I say this a lot lately but reading about freaking teenagers banging it's not for me. Also, I love a little toxic MMC but not like it's Levi, he's TOXIC with capital letters and not the funny, toes curling type. Every time some male approached this girl he started losing his marbles. He should do like Astrid and go to fucking therapy.

Someone please tell me if it gets better in the series, please tell me if I decided to keep reading it i won't have to read about teenagers

2.5. “Those who don't play chess think the king is the strongest piece, because the game ends when he dies, but they don't stop to think that if the queen died first, the king doesn't have a chance to survive.”

After her mother dies, Astrid ends up living with her father, who's a Lord.  She's enrolled in RES, a very elite school (hence the name Royal Elite School).  She just wants to remain unseen by everyone and does a pretty decent job at it until Levi lays his eyes on her.  He's out for vengeance with her but she has no idea why. 
 
Decent enemies to lovers story that's on the darker side.  Not super dark, but still darker. 

New obsession
