I knew the exact moment when everything changed.
It was the day in March, the same one I got assaulted by my boss, lost my job, saved my pregnant sister from committing suicide, and as if it wasn't enough... it was the day Kieran King walked into my life.
I hated Kieran from the moment I laid my eyes on him for the first time. He was an arrogant bastard that turned my life upside down, and no matter how much I despised him and hated him, I also could not live without him.
He blackmailed me, used me, he was cruel and rough, and I wanted nothing more than to get away... but he also saved my life and protected me when I needed it the most. Now I'm don't know if I can leave anymore...
My name is Sophia Howard, and this is my story.
