Blackwood's Indifferent Thorn

Kaelen Blackwood rules the halls of Blackwood Crest Academy with an iron fist. Every student fears or desires him, except one. Elara Vance, the new scholarship student, looks at him like he's nothing more than a minor inconvenience. She has secrets to keep and a desperate mission to save her family. Kaelen's taunts are just noise. But for a king who demands to be the center of everyone's world, her indifference is a declaration of war. He'll do whatever it takes to break her, to force her to see him. He's about to learn that some thorns are sharpest when ignored.
