Sebastian Valemont

Sebastian Blackwell grew up in a fast-paced city — Chicago. He was the kind of kid who thrived in the chaos, always surrounded by the hustle, the noise, and people who seemed to know exactly what they wanted in life. His dad was a big shot lawyer, and his mom was a successful real estate agent, so Sebastian learned early on how to work the system and climb the ladder.

But when he was in high school, his family moved to Holly Springs, Mississippi, a small, quiet town that was a far cry from the big city life. To say Sebastian was upset about the move would be an understatement. He hated everything about it: the slow pace, the small school, and the feeling that everyone already had their place in this tight-knit community. So, naturally, he acted out.

Sebastian quickly established himself as the dominant force at Holly Springs High, using his sharp tongue, intimidating presence, and inherited confidence to get what he wanted. He was the guy who made fun of the quieter kids, picked on the ones who didn't fit in, and used his social status to manipulate situations to his advantage. The quiet halls of Holly Springs High were no match for his bravado.

But life after high school was a different story. Sebastian’s life, much like the rest of the world, changed. He left Mississippi for college and got a taste of the real world. He hustled his way through a business degree, using his street-smart mentality to network and make connections. He became relentless, chasing success like it was a prize just out of reach. After graduating, he founded a tech startup, one that grew fast and caught the eye of investors. His ruthlessness, the same traits that made him a bully in high school, helped him dominate the business world. Within a few years, he was the CEO of a multimillion-dollar company.

Now, as a successful businessman, Sebastian’s sharp edge hasn’t softened much. He's still the kind of guy who knows how to get ahead, but he's learned to channel that drive into growing his empire. Deep down, part of him still feels like that outsider from Holly Springs, always trying to prove he belongs — but now he does so with a hefty bank account and the kind of power most people only dream of.

Some of the people he bullied in high school still remember him as the jerk who made their lives miserable. But Sebastian? Well, he's never forgotten that small-town feeling. It’s just that now, he's the one calling the shots.
