Faith. Belief. Devotion. Those were all Savannah knew and believed in since she was a little girl. Stray from the path of righteousness, and you were held with contempt... until you confessed. Sinning was by far the worst thing you could do. It was atrocious, vile, unbecoming, and disgraceful in the name of God. To feel was one thing. To act upon? Punishable. It only took one, though. With a name that should have made her question more than his dark hair and deep blue eyes; she was already submerged-driven down deep until the truth shattered everything she had once known. Truth became lies. Faith became doubt. Nothing seemed what it was. Not even the man she had fallen for. And Savannah had become stuck in the middle.

It was a wide space decorated with heavy drapes of deep blue covering the stone wall and woven carpets on the floor. Upholstered furniture shipped from afar sat around the room, with a large canopied bed being the centerpiece. Standing near the single large window overlooking the factory floor was Smith. My tormentor. My keeper. My father. He was bare-chested with his brown hair tousled as if he had just rolled out of bed. A hand was lazily poised on his hip, while muscles rippled beneath his tanned skin as he raised the cup of tea to his lips. He didn't spare me a glance.
