February I thought we had something real-me and Arlo. We moved fast, but it felt right. We laughed, raced motorcycles, shared silence like it was sacred. I believed him when he said he wasn't the romantic type. I believed I was enough. Then he crashed, and while he was healing, I found the letters. Not for me. For her-Lyra, the girl who broke his heart. And suddenly, everything shifted. Every kiss, every quiet moment, every almost-I-love-you.

When a truth comes to light. A truth that changes everything. They are forced to face the one thing they both tried so hard to avoid: That somewhere along the way, a contract became a love story. And letting go might be the one thing neither of them is strong enough to do. Trigger Warning: Mentions of illness, death, and emotional struggle.

In a world of silk gowns, inherited wealth, and unspoken rules, perfection is a performance-and no one performs better than her. Married into a prestigious aristocratic family, she's the model wife: elegant, composed, and quietly intelligent. For eight years, she endures the subtle cruelty of high society, the cold dismissiveness of her parents, and the calculated apathy of a husband who only sees her as a social asset. She plays her part-until the day she walks in on him in bed with her younger sister. But this betrayal is not a beginning. It is the end of her patience. Unknown to them, she has already been collecting evidence: conversations, confessions, financial corruption, and the quiet complicity of every family member who turned a blind eye. Armed with her knowledge of technology and a mask of obedience, she launches an anonymous online forum-a slow, deliberate unraveling of two dynasties hiding centuries of rot beneath velvet and lace. As secrets spill and empires fall, the woman they dismissed becomes the force they cannot trace or tame. Reputation is their currency, and she's burning it all to the ground. This is not a story of revenge. This is the story of a woman reclaiming her voice- And forcing the world to finally hear it.

April I fight fires for a living-but I've never felt more burned than I did that night. As a forest ranger, I live on the edge of danger and calm. My body is strong, my will even stronger, but that doesn't mean I'm unbreakable. I thought love-real love-would see through the scars I keep hidden beneath my uniform. I thought Ellis saw me. Understood me. But all it took was one careless sentence. One drunken confession echoing through a baby monitor, turning a celebration into a battlefield. He humiliated me in front of everyone-my friends, my chosen sisters, myself. And now I'm standing in the ashes of something I thought would last forever, wondering if I've been lying to myself about what love really looks like. Ellis I was drunk. Stupid. Thoughtless. It was just a conversation. Boys being boys, joking around in a room where I thought no one could hear. But they did. She did. And I said things I can't take back. I don't even recognize the man who said them-because that man humiliated the strongest, most loyal, most incredible woman he's ever known. April is the kind of woman who runs toward danger. Who holds broken branches like they're bones and brings people back from the edge. And I crushed her with words. Now I'd do anything-everything-to take it back. But the damage is done. And I'm not sure I deserve to be the one who tries to fix it.
