Zac Burgess as Lucien Belmont

As Zac, I step into the shoes of Lucien Belmont, Caroline’s enigmatic stepbrother, who shares a complex bond with me. Lucien carries a burdened past that he attempts to mask with casual encounters and intimacy with women across Manchester College. Despite his history of amorous liaisons with almost every female student here, there’s one woman he yearns for, but has never been able to conquer – Caroline.

Because of this arrangement, he promptly consents to Caroline’s proposal involving wooing the Vice President’s daughter and securing her commitment to Delta Phi Pi. If he complies with Caroline’s request, he stands to enjoy an intimate encounter with her. However, will his desire to follow through with the deal persist after developing a deeper connection with Annie?
