And sometimes- That kind of warmth is the most dangerous thing of all. ✨ Can someone who has known both comfort and cruelty survive a world built on control? ✨ Will softness last where emotions are considered weakness?

Only one man ever cared for her-her adoptive father. And when he died in a car accident two years ago, the last bit of warmth in her life died with him.
