People always say your twenties are for self-discovery. Apparently, mine just involved discovering I'd been stolen.

Not metaphorically. Not in the "I lost myself after Chad cheated on me with a yoga instructor named Misty" kind of way. I mean literally. Baby-napped. Illegally acquired. Ripped from one family and gift-wrapped into another, without so much as a receipt.

Of course, I didn't know that then.

Back then, I was still the same girl who thought her biggest problem was forgetting her reusable grocery bags. Who believed her mother's anxiety and her father's long silences were just quirks, not the weight of a lie pressing on their chests for twenty-four years.

And yes, there's a guy. There's always a guy. But everything I thought I knew about love, family, and who I am got shattered into a thousand tiny pieces-each one sharp enough to draw blood.

╰┈➤ ❝ [I stood there in unequivocal revelation, the lagging pain slowly catching up with me, but before I could release a fraction of the pain into my screaming, a bell rang, and suddenly, pilfered from my body was the ability to move. My face neutral and my muscles disabled as I fell face-first into the hard, scathing rock that lay unmoved before me.] 》* 。 • ˚ ˚ ˛ * 。° 。 • ˚《 Imagine awakening in an environment you deemed unfamiliar, your back thrumming in pain, with your mind staying clear of how you ended up there or simply the moments that lead to your position. You try to find a way out and later realize that you can't even remember who you are; your memories purged, your identity unknown. It takes you a good amount of time, pain, and effort, and eventually you manage to gather tiny fragments of who you were along with the trauma of how you retrieved it, but it's okay, maybe it's all worth it as you finally make contact with another person. Turns out she was your best friend. Finally, it looks like all is turning up until you learn of all the inhumane things you've done in your past, things that evade your newfound morals, things that were so detrimental to society that when you hear the reason as to why you've been enduring such agony, you understand why. How many people did you even end up hurting? What did you do that was so bad, that it made millions wish the absolute worst of you? What will you do now?

PROLOGUE You always believe that doing it right guarantees a great outcome, but what if it doesn't? What if doing everything the way you were taught to ends with you questioning the very meaning of right and wrong? They said good girls always win, that patience pays off, that saving the best for the one who deserves it is the most honorable thing a woman can do. I believed them, I clung to those words as if they were sacred, because society made it sound like the crown jewel of a woman's worth. But what happens when you realize that the ones who broke the rules seem to have better outcomes? When you watch them live freely, laugh loudly, and still be chosen, while you, the one who chose to be good and follow the rules, are left to face the opposite? Does that mean life is unfair, or does it mean the rules were never written for you in the first place? I waited. I followed every rule. I held on when others let go. And when the night finally came, my night, I gave it all, expecting the forever I was promised, only to be met with the greatest deception of my life. The kind of heartbreak that does not just wound the heart, but questions your identity, your choices, and even your faith in love. How would you feel if the man you loved and believed in turned out to be someone entirely different? When the one you trusted the most isn't who you thought he was? When the one who clapped for your values was only clapping for himself, cheering because he had already won the game before you even realized you were playing? Not all stories begin with love, some begin with a lie, some begin with betrayal, and some begin with a silence that grows too loud to ignore. This is not the story you think it is. Follow me, and you will find out the truth about a girl who waited, who gave everything, and who discovered that being a virgin was not the beginning of her story, but only the secret she never thought she would have to defend.
