Pretty Ruthless. The Order. The Beginning

At Ashford University, power doesn't belong to the professors.It belongs to the students.The ones with the right names.The right connections.The ones who decide what happens behind closed doors.Becky Dawson doesn't belong there.She's not rich. Not connected. Not invited.But she knows something's not right.And every answer leads back to one man.Carrson Ashford.Cold. Controlled. Untouchable.They say he's dangerous. They don't know the half of it.Now Becky's on the hunt.Studying him, following him.Because Carrson isn't just a man.He's a door.The heir to a world built on power, ambition, and survival.But Becky isn't the only predator here.Carrson notices. Pushes to see if she'll break.When he presses a blade to her throat, she doesn't run.When he tells her to stay away, she steps closer.When he tells her to run,she waits to see if he'll chase.That's a problem.Because Becky Dawson?She wasn't supposed to be part of his world.But now that she is,Carrson can't decidewhether to destroy her...or make sure she never leaves.
