Summary
When Marie's mysterious benefactor intervenes to prevent her expulsion and secure her place in the School of Crimefighting, Jordan sees her as a threat, albeit a distractingly beautiful one. They're not sure how they go from seeing her as the competition to irrevocably head over heels, but it probably has something to do with her smile.
Or, Luke doesn't kill Brink (yet), and Jordan and Marie have time to fall in love.

Summary
Marie Moreau will do just about anything to survive. When a freak outburst from the school’s most promising student lands her in the spotlight, Marie takes it as an opportunity. Settling into Godolkin University is easy when you’re Number 2.
Lessons in ethics. Questionable classmates. A kind of sadistic Dean, who takes a keen interest in her for whatever reason. She can handle it all, until Jordan Li demands her help solving a mystery. In return: something she can’t refuse.
A great conspiracy. A lot of blackmail. A long-forgotten blood tournament.
Powers greater than theirs are plotting against them, but don’t they know? Marie’s a monster. She’ll do anything to survive.
---
(OR: Gen V with more mystery, more angst, more moral ambiguity, more powers, more slow burn, more everything!)

Summary
God, your head was a mess today. Could things possibly get any worse?
As it turned out, they absolutely could. Apparently, today and the universe had it out for you, and you really should have just stayed home and made Daniel go to this charity dinner alone. You should have known that saying yes on the first full weekend you’d gotten off in God knows how long was just tempting fate. Instead of being appreciative and spending the weekend in London at your flat, you’d leapt at the opportunity to get away from the city and spend some deeply needed one on one time with your best friend.
And now, here you were, in the midst of processing several world view shifting revelations about Daniel, as he nudged your foot with his in a bid to get your attention, both eyebrows raised in question, looking impossibly intrigued.
“Anything you’d like to share with the class?”
