Cult Campus

I must win on Monday. This Game is what I’ve sprinted, sparred, and sweated for. Not just because everyone calls me Sigma’s Savior. Not only for the Lunar Chalice. No. On Monday I must escape the hunter at the Massacre. Because if I don’t… I’m his.

On Tuesdays we escape. If we trip… we’re trapped. I was born to play by the rules. Smile for the cameras. Lead Omega. Pretend I don’t feel the eyes on me. But he’s always watching. Not just him—them. The Society. The system. The ones who say they own me. I thought I could play the game and stay safe. Perfect. Polished. Untouchable. Then came Terror Tuesday. Now I’m locked in a maze designed to test me, break me… trap me. And I can’t tell who the real danger is. The masked man who stalks me from the shadows? Or the ones waiting for me to fail? My name is Olivia Cardell.

On Wednesdays we bet. If we fold…we’re sold. I know how to win. At poker. At pain. At pretending nothing ever touches me. But Aiden Cardell doesn’t play games—he owns them. So when I challenge him to Seven Minutes in Heaven, I think I’ve got the upper hand. Until he locks the door. What happens inside that closet isn’t about lust or love… It’s about power.

On Thursdays, we hide. If we’re tagged… we’re bagged. Everyone knows the rules. Stay silent. Hide. Survive the fog. I was supposed to keep my head down. Fake compliance. Graduate. Make it out alive. Then I saw something I wasn’t meant to see. Now I’m being hunted. Apollo Griffin says he’s here to protect me. The Delta president. And my newly assigned husband. A man who follows orders. But in a system built on obedience, protection feels like another cage. If I stay, I lose everything. And if I’m tagged? I won’t make it to Friday.
