'ACCEPTED'-, but it's hurt....
"She accepted the darkness not as punishment, but as home." 🌸🌸🌸 Anya has a father and three brothers. But they don't really care about her-they're just family by name. After Anya's mother died giving birth to her, the blame for her death was placed on Anya. Since then, the only things she has received from her father and brothers are blame, disrespect, ignorance, abusive words, and bullying-especially from her two elder brothers. They call her unlucky, a bad omen, a symbol of misfortune. They hate her. And over time, Anya has come to accept all of it. She has started to believe it herself-that she is cursed, that she brings bad luck. Anya is just 16 years old, but she's not like other girls her age. She has never lived a normal childhood-no fun, no laughter, no affection. Her whole life has revolved around just one thing: studying. Whether in school or locked inside her four-walled room, that's all she's ever known. She doesn't like facing her family. Deep inside, she believes she's the reason they're always upset, that her presence is a burden. She truly thinks she's not good enough to live under the same roof with them. Now, she's made a decision: after she turns 18, she will leave. Not to run away-but to protect them from herself. But what will happen when her family finds out what she's planning? Will they feel relief-or regret? Do they truly hate her-or have they just never tried to understand her? What will happen if they realize they were wrong to blame a child for something she never caused? What if they ask for forgiveness and beg her to stay? Will she stay? Or will she finally choose herself-for the first time in her life?

But when a stranger pulls her out of the darkness and into a world more dangerous than she imagined, Lilly finds herself face-to-face with Jayden Anderson. He's cold, commanding, and feared by everyone. The heir to the Anderson mafia empire-someone who's supposed to destroy people like her. But Jayden sees her. Not just the scars she carries or the quiet strength she wears like armor-but the girl buried underneath it all. When secrets from the past resurface, and betrayal cuts deeper than any blade, Lilly is forced to question everything-including the man she thought would never hurt her. Because in a world of blood and lies, even flowers can be used as weapons.Concluída
