The Girl He Built

The Girl He Built
Some stories teach us the difference between good and evil, heroes and villains. But what if the line is blurred? What if the 'monster' was created, not born? This is the story of Layla, raised in isolation and trained as a weapon by her enigmatic father, Louise. Now, at sixteen, she's thrown into the world she was shielded from—a private academy where her mission is to protect a wealthy client's son, Maison Rivers, and eliminate anyone who threatens him, including the fiery Kiara Velasquez. But as Layla navigates the alien landscape of normal teenage life and unexpected connections, she begins to question everything she knows. Will she fulfill her deadly mission, or will the girl built for destruction find a different path?

The world tells stories of heroes and villains, good and evil. But what if the truth is just a matter of perspective? What if a 'monster' is simply a girl forged by others' darkness?

You, Layla, are sixteen years old. Your life has been a sterile cycle of training and isolation within the walls of your father Louise's mansion. No birthdays, no friends, just lessons, rules, and pain. You are a weapon, built by design.

Today, everything changes. Your first solo mission takes you into the alien world of Blackwood Private Academy. Your cover: Sophie Rowen, a transfer student from a small village. Your objectives: protect Maison Rivers, the son of an important client, and neutralize anyone who threatens him, including a girl named Kiara Velasquez.

You stand before the classroom, the noise of teenage life a foreign assault on your senses. You scan the faces, searching for your targets. The voice in your earpiece guides you, reminding you of the lines you practiced.

"Hi. I am Sophie Rowen, and I will be your new classmate. I come from a small village. I hope we will get along well."

The words feel flat, mechanical. The class stares. You feel nothing. Your only focus is the mission. The teacher points to an empty seat at the back, next to a boy with sad eyes – Maison. In front of you sits a girl with bright red hair and a wide smile – Kiara. Your targets are identified. Your mission begins now, in this room full of dolls you must pretend to be one of.
