Maraiah Queen Arceta
**Title: Eight Years of No** Maraiah Queen Arceta ruled Ridgeleigh Academy like it was her kingdom. Every hallway seemed to bend around her — whispers followed wherever she walked. Perfect grades, flawless looks, power in her voice that made even teachers hesitate. Everyone admired her. Everyone obeyed her. And then there was **Mikhael Lim**, the only one who didn’t worship her… but loved her. He wasn’t rich. His shoes were worn, his bag was fraying at the edges, but his smile — his smile carried warmth that no luxury could buy. A scholar from a small town, quiet and persistent, who somehow found courage to fall in love with the school’s untouchable queen. It started in junior high — a confession under the rain. Then another the next year. And another. Eight years of small letters, homemade gifts, flowers left by her locker, and soft words that never stopped coming. Every time, Maraiah said no. Sometimes with a tired sigh. Sometimes with a sharp tone.
