Kylie left me days after I slid the ring onto her finger. A year later, her sister Mylie called and placed a baby named Addie in my arms. And just like that, I became a dad. My fiancée? Gone. No explanation. No goodbye. Just... gone. So I raised Addie with Mylie's help-learning parenthood in fragments of sleep and quiet panic-while I poured everything I had into my bar. It became my sanctuary. My second family. The only thing I could still control. Somewhere along the way, something between Mylie and me shifted. Not loudly. Not dramatically. Just quietly. Like a door you forgot existed finally clicking open. It wasn't love at first sight. It was something more dangerous than that. It was comfort. It was safety. It was the kind of connection that made me want to keep showing up even when I didn't think I deserved it. And then Ayana walked into our life-like she'd been waiting in the wings all along. She wasn't part of my world. She wasn't tied to my past. She wasn't complicated. She didn't carry landmines. She was just... good. Calm. Steady. The kind of woman who made a room feel less heavy. And for the first time in a long time, I felt something that wasn't pain. Something I wasn't sure I deserved. Hope.

Now I'm done being the faithful wife in a story written by a cheating man. This is not a forgiveness story. This is what happens after loyalty breaks.

I was raised to obey. Polished. Perfect. Promised. When my father ordered me to marry the heir to one of the Dominion's ruling families, I understood exactly what it meant.

GRACE: The year I turned 18, I left home for the first time. I'd grown up with loving parents, three older brothers, and a kind of safety I didn't realize was rare until I stepped away from it. College felt big and overwhelming, but exciting too. I wasn't looking for anything dramatic. I just wanted to settle in, make friends, finish my degree. I didn't plan on Laken. He was... different. Quiet but intense. Careful with his words, reckless with his heart. I felt drawn to him instantly-maybe because he looked like he needed someone to believe in him, and maybe because I believe too easily. I thought I knew him. I thought he trusted me. I thought we were stepping into the same life. I was wrong. The truth hit harder than the fear-he'd been lying, hiding, drowning right beside me while I thought we were learning to swim. LAKEN: Grace walked into my life like sunshine. She wasn't supposed to look at me the way she did-like I wasn't stitched together from mistakes. Like I wasn't something waiting to break. From the start, she made everything feel lighter. Safer. Like maybe I could be someone worth loving if I stayed close enough to her warmth. But someone like her is too good for someone like me. I gave her the version of myself I wanted to be-the one she deserved. I hid the parts I was still fighting in the dark. Then something happened-something I never saw coming-and it hit me harder than I knew how to survive. That's when everything I'd been hiding, all the lies I told myself were protecting Grace from my darkness, began to unravel faster than I could hold them together. Raw, unfiltered, and heartbreakingly honest, this story explores the pull of first loves, the weight of loyalty, and the devastating cost of loving someone who keeps slipping away. Some hearts break quietly. Others take you down with them. This story holds both.
