کتاب The Claiming (رمان ادعا)

Cassandra King has spent her life locked behind the iron grip of a motorcycle club and the overbearing watch of her father. Rockwell was supposed to be her escape—a prestigious academy buried in the mountains, where she could finally breathe.

But Rockwell is no ordinary school—it’s a fortress of power, decadence, and ancient rites soaked in candlelight and sin.

Protected by her best friend Jack, Cassie thought she could survive anything.

Until she meets Frankie Majerio.

He’s beautiful. Poisonous. Unholy.A boy born of fire and ruin, with eyes like a storm and a smile sharp enough to scar.

He’s danger wrapped in velvet, all wicked charm and haunted eyes. The kind of boy who makes you forget who you are—and tempts you to become someone else entirely. Someone reckless. Someone his.

When Frankie wants something, he takes it—and now he wants Cassie.

To have her, he resurrects a dark tradition: The Claiming.

Beneath Rockwell lie twisted tunnels and cruel games. Five girls. Five masked hunters. One night beneath the academy in a labyrinth of shadows, where the only way out is to be caught.

But the real danger isn’t in being claimed.

It’s in wanting to be.

As Cassie is forced to play a game where power, lust, and obsession blur, she must decide who to trust—the best friend sworn to protect her, the devil who wants to own her, or the masked stranger stalking her steps with secrets of his own.
