I’ve spent my whole life feeling invisible.
The forgotten daughter. The curvy girl no one ever chose. The extra piece in a family where I never quite fit.
For years, I’ve been building my escape plan.
One more year of law school, and I’d finally be free. One step away from proving I’m more than the leftover of a marriage everyone wants to forget.

But he tells me I’m safe. That he’ll never cage me. That standing beside him will always be my choice.
Only, choosing him means burning my future to ash. Choosing him means stepping into his world, where justice wears a different face and family isn’t inherited, but sworn in blood. It means trusting a man who could destroy everything I thought I wanted.

I think I want it.
