The Villain Institute

Written by Megan Linski and Alicia Rades

Narrated by Taylor Harvey and A.J. Carter

Love is even more dangerous behind bars.

Ava-Marie

My name is Ava-Marie, and I love living on the dark side. 

Getting into trouble is kind of my thing, but one night, I take revenge too far. I’m sentenced to a reform school for magical delinquents... though really, it’s a prison. 

As the only supernatural who can control both fire and water, I’m already a target. To make matters worse, I literally share a soul with Charlie, a sexy inmate from the wrong side of the tracks. Surviving at the Institute is almost as risky as falling in love.

But there’s a way out. The Warden is offering a pardon for the team who wins the Darke Games-- a sick, twisted competition where more prisoners come out dead than alive. 

They think I'm the bad guy. I'm about to show them just how much of a villain I can be.

Charlie

I shouldn’t be at the Institute. I’m in here because of her-- the girl who claims to own half my soul. 

After losing my sight, I grew up as an orphan, banished from magical society. I learned enough on the streets to survive the gangs and fight clubs inside the prison. But nothing could prepare me for the Darke Games. 

Ava-Marie is my worst enemy, but if we’re going to break out of here, we’ll have to get along. Yet the more I let Ava in, the more I want her. I can’t let my desire for her get in the way of my one chance at escape. 

Except it already has. There’s a dark power inside of Ava that terrifies me...

And none of us will be prepared when it unleashes.

Took me a hot minute to get into this one. While I was excited to follow the story, I just could NOT with the dude narrator and the whine added to Ava Marie... I legit had to skip over parts.
