for magdalena, a polish jew, the law of attraction had always meant that everyone always got what they deserved.
she had always strictly adhered to this law, but that was before the war. that was before she became the housemaid of the stern commandant Marco Reus, and before she met Robert Lewandowski, the compassionate owner of the nearby factory that employed her family. most importantly, however, it was before she found herself entangled in a messy triangle with the both of them-and it was before she realized that whatever the law of attraction was, regardless of what it declared, that one thing was certain: she was breaking it.
bound; governed by fate or extremely likely to occur.
"Face it, Marco. You and I are bound to one another. Even after all this time, even despite the consequences of our love, you can't keep yourself away from me-and neither can I."
