Everything I thought I knew was a lie. Including the one I kept telling myself… that he was coming for me. The illusion that I was safe, shattered with every step as I ran. Much like Alex, this world is nothing more than wolves dressed in sheep’s clothing. Beautiful, breathtaking. Until you find yourself alone, running barefoot through the woods, second-guessing every shadow. What I need is a miracle, and thankfully one comes. Weak and broken, I find my way into my family’s waiting arms, against all odds. But the relief is only short-lived because what I’ve just been through barely scratches the surface of this sinister nightmare. I should run. I should hide. But when the lives of those I love are at stake, all sense of rationality goes out the window. He saved me when I needed him most. It’s time I return the favour. Even if it means ruining any kind of future we could have had in the process. We’re meant to be building a kingdom, but brick by brick, it’s all crumbling around us.
