Bewildered: The beginning

Kiernan Howard has always lived a life of privilege, the golden boy of Meriaca's wealthiest family. Spoilt, confident, and untouchable, he believes nothing could ever shake the foundation of his carefully curated life-until one devastating night shatters his illusions.

A casual insult from his adoptive father during a lavish gala reveals a truth Kiernan never suspected: he is not the Howard's biological son. The revelation ignites a relentless quest for answers that takes him deep into the shadows of a past he never knew existed. Who were his real parents? And why were they murdered?

As Kiernan unravels the threads of deception, he discovers a horrifying possibility: the person responsible for his parents' deaths is someone within the very family he has always trusted. As secrets, lies, and betrayals unfold, Kiernan must navigate a treacherous web of wealth, influence, and danger, all while balancing loyalty, love, and the gnawing hunger for revenge.

With enemies hidden behind smiles and friends tested by fear, Bewildered is a gripping tale of identity, ambition, and the haunting consequences of truth. In a world where nothing is as it seems, one young man must confront his past to reclaim his future-or risk losing everything.
