Maggie Anglem lost her mother at just 9 years old. Her whole childhood was tainted with abuse, a home filled with violence where the only thing saving her from a life in the system was her sweet, loving grandfather, Cyrus Anglem, who often provided a sense of hope for Maggie. Shortly after the loss of her mother, her father Dennis was locked away in the state asylum for the clinically insane for attempted murder/suicide.
Now an adult, Maggie deals with the burden of being the product of a suicidal, alcoholic father and a mother who, though despite being a blessing to Maggie, was gone too soon to guide Maggie through the perilous journey of life. Between Cyrus and Maggie's autistic little brother Ben, Maggie has somehow managed to stride through life and develop a new purpose- taking care of her brother and developing a new, better life for herself and her newly found, non-binary partner Kendall.

The Grean Household
"It was a mistake..." She told her mother, folding her hands into each other. "Marrying him..." Her mother said nothing, she simply sat there as her only daughter stood across from her, on the verge of collapsing from bruised ribs and cracked shins. "Mom." She wanted to reach out, softly tap her aging mother. Though that was the restriction of her life. The binding stereotype that she was gentle and slow to anger. In reality, what wanted to explode from her ribs was a scream of an animal, and the tears of repressed rage and fear. She wanted to throw her body onto the floor, but the thought made her damaged body ache more. There was no response from her mother. The deafening silence reminded her of her own quietness as her husband shouted at her, his fists bloody. He told her that she was only a tool for his amusement and a money-whore for her indigent family. She was nothing else but a tool for both parties. And she was starting to believe him. --------------------- Sarah Johnsen's life spirals from the normal gritty resilient fight to a serene wonderland. On the outside, she's married to a kind family with untold riches, but on the inside, her husband is the devil himself. Forcefully married at 18, Sarah was forced to kill her own dreams of becoming a doctor in order to bind her poor family to the rich bastards of Glendale by marrying their youngest; Oliver Grean. Their arrangement had the ability to brew the largest timespan of misery any of them has ever known. From lost toddlers to paid staged kidnappings, the binding of the two families, the Johnsen's and the Grean's created a mixture of chaos, confusion, sorrow, fear, grief, and dangerous rage. And there seems to be no haven to escape to. Or is there?
