Between Safe Walls

Rule number one:
"There is no space for the kind of love that ruins women like my mother."

Safrana Esoriel Verdan was named Safe.

Ironically, safety was the one thing she never had.

So she made her own rules.

Because Safe grew up knowing exactly what happens to girls who trust the wrong people.

So she builds walls. Walls made of independence, long nights, quiet anger, and the stubborn belief that she will survive this life on her own. And for a long time, those walls work.

Until the day she bumps into Atty. Solo Cartajenas.

And for the first time in her life, Safe begins to experience something unfamiliar.

A real kind of safety.

But safety is a dangerous thing for someone who has spent her entire life living without it.

Because the moment you start feeling safe... you start wanting to stay.

And sometimes, the most dangerous place to be isn't out in the world.

It's right there... between safe walls.
