From Rival to Sister-in-law
I asked for divorce ninety-nine times before he finally signed it. But by then, my father was gone, my heart was ash, and the man I once loved was too busy playing knight to another woman to notice I’d already died inside. Now I’m leaving—his secrets in my pocket, his betrayal in my bones, and Rosalie’s brother kneeling at my feet with a promise of war. Let them think they won. I’ll return not as a wife, not as a ghost, but as the sister-in-law who burns their perfect world down.
