To My Forever & Always,
You'll likely not see this, or even consider a dedication in your name. Yet you support me no matter what. Giving me your strength when I need it most, and your embrace when my soul calls for yours.
Thank you for being you and allowing me to be me. While coming together and making the most beautiful us.
I love you, it's no secret, I say it a hundred times a day.
But to have it written in a book ... Well, that's more than infinity war!
This world isn't flowers and rainbows sweetheart. This world is death, it is corrupt, cut-throat and complete darkness. If you want any chance at surviving, I suggest you learn to see in the dark.
- Maverick Miller, Featherstone Academy

About The Author
Introduction
"We're here to assist with you with your transition to Featherstone Academy."
Suddenly thrown into a world representing bloodlines I know nothing about, forcing my past I refuse to remember into the present, has my world turned upside down.
It doesn't matter that I didn't want to go to college, it doesn't matter that I don't want to be here. I'll follow the rules or risk my life. The organisation that runs the criminal underworld is no joke.
Apparently, I'm an Ace now, but few are happy about my arrival.
Secrets have me wanting to run for the hills.
Boys have curly hair, skull tattoos, big mouths and gentle caresses.
A diamond has me wanting to make the world a better place.
For a lone ranger, my small world just got bigger.
What are you willing to do to survive?
#Aceholes
Prologue
My soul aches.
Blood, everywhere.
My small hands tremble as I look at what I'm holding.
"Meu Tesouro." I hear, but my eyes refuse to seek where it came from.
This is all too much.
Curling into a ball, I block the world out.
Blood, seeping through my clothes, my body unwilling to acknowledge its touch.
My heart hurts.
The darkness surrounds me, and I welcome it's presence.
My mind grateful for the respite.
There was . . . no me before this, only after.
Yet I don't remember why.
My subconscious locking it all away.
CHAPTER ONE
Leg up on the pedestal with his client now eye level with his dick, we're gonna be here all night at this rate. We've all got plans and if he doesn't stop thrusting himself in that poor girl's face, it’d be just my luck for Rafe to pop his head in. He owns Inked, the tattoo shop, and the MMA gym next door too. I can see his car parked out front from here, and I don’t want our plans to be blown.
Well, mine will be. He couldn't give a shit what these guys are up to, but he thinks I'm corrupt enough as it is.
"You done Marcus? We need to get moving.” I can't keep the irritation out of my voice, which only makes him smirk and try to up his game. This girl is loving it.
"You can't rush perfection like this, Luna.”
Perfection? Man, all he did was tattoo an infinity band on her wrist. I've been here a solid 12 hours, putting in my time to try and get Rafe to officially take me on as an apprentice so I can skip college. He won't even have a conversation with me about it, but I think if I keep showing up he'll eventually relent.
I'm ready to get out of here, so I give Jake the eyes and he starts shutting lights off in the back. Code for everyone to get out, the unspoken rule to grab your stuff and go. Everyone starts gathering themselves like its Pied Piper.
"Hey sweetie, you want to come hang with us tonight?" Marcus murmurs with his lips against her neck. This girl is hanging off Marcus' every word, but I can barely deal with him on his own, never mind when he's trying to get laid.
Thankfully, Jake pipes up, "Marcus, you know the rules. No girls tonight."
"Yeah, but Luna's coming so I thought ... "
"Fuck off Marcus, you know the rules, Luna doesn't count. Besides, she's got bigger balls than you anyways," Jake sniggers. Oh god, nothing riles Marcus up more than being interrupted and being compared to me.
I don’t need to be around for this, so I get to me feet grabing my jacket from the back of the chair, already heading for the door. West is observing them both from the door, aware this could escalate quickly.
"Listen Marcus, you can call it a night now or head out with us, either way you’re leaving." West says, turning and heading out the door I follow, not wanting to deal with his usual crap.
"You want a ride or are you taking Dot?" Jake asks, ever the organizer.
"You can go with West in the car, I’m taking Dot.”
"You sure you don't want someone to be your driver?"
"I'm sure. I prefer my space, you know that."
"I know, and you know I always gotta check." Lifting my shoulder to him I leave it at that. Jake’s always trying to care, but I don't entertain him.
