Lost the ones dearest to her, betrayed by those around her, and held captive by the man she had once loved most, she thought everything would end peacefully-with her daughter safe and far from the bitter truth. Until one day, he discovered her existence...
From the very first day they met, they never truly liked each other. Eventually, they fell in love and got married. Unfortunately, things didn't go as planned, and they divorced.
From enemies to lovers and then to sworn enemies-at least, that's what everyone thought. She believed her feelings had long since died and been buried, but she was wrong. After months of silence and torture in the dark room, she finally erupted.
"I hate you!" she screamed at the top of her lungs.
Struggling with all her might, she tore free from the ropes binding her wrists, kicked him aside, and grabbed the knife lying helplessly nearby.
"Now you want me to believe you?" she hissed, inching closer with wild eyes, pointing the knife at him. Her hair was disheveled, her lips pale and dry. She looked like a runaway from a psychiatric ward.
"Have you gone crazy? Put the knife away!" he said icily.
"Ha ha ha!" She laughed hysterically. "Crazy? Oh, yes, I've gone crazy. I went crazy when I found out you killed my father! I went crazy when you made excuses to be with her every day! I went crazy when you never believed a word I said-even when my life was at stake! I went crazy because even now, you still want to go after my daughter! What did I ever do to you?! Yes, I'm crazy, and I'll show you just how crazy I am!"
"What are you doing standing there?" he barked at the guard who had just entered. But before the guard could react, the knife plunged deep into someone's stomach...
Blood dripped onto the floor. With both their hands clutching the handle, they felt the warmth of slick liquid staining it, while the atmosphere thickened with the metallic stench of fresh blood, panic, and regret...
