Annabelle, who has been expelled from two previous schools, is sent to Saint Theresa's Catholic School, where she quickly becomes the object of fascination for her classmates, who are drawn to her carefree attitude and rebellious nature. However, it is Simone who finds herself drawn to Annabelle, despite knowing that it is both morally and legally wrong.
As they spend more time together, their relationship becomes increasingly intense and fraught, culminating in a passionate affair that Simone cannot continue to deny. However, their relationship is discovered by the school authorities, and Simone is forced to choose between her career, her reputation, and her love for Annabelle.
