We just hit 25,000 words The cage is open... will she step out?
I’ve just posted Chapter IX: The Broken Silence and Chapter X: The Two Realities.
These were the hardest chapters I’ve written so far. We move from the absolute darkness of the penthouse to the first spark of light. Kayla has finally found her voice, and Skylie is proving that a 'Titan' can also be a sanctuary.
The Hook: For two weeks, the burner phone was a secret. Now, it’s a lifeline. While Mark builds a world of ego and lies, Skylie is systematically dismantling it.
To my survivors and my slow-burn lovers: Chapter IX is heavy, but Chapter X is the breath of air we’ve all been waiting for.
Question for you: What was your favorite 'Skylie story'—the pampered cat or the failed soufflé?
Thank you for 25k words of support. The Sterling Legacy is just getting started.
