I knew it the second I heard her name. Hope. It’s something I’ve never had. Something I’ve always wanted. But now I only want it for her. Hope’s as broken as I was. Beaten down. Literally and figuratively. That stops now. I thought saving myself was what mattered the most to me. I was wrong. Saving her is.
No one’s ever cared what happened to me. Ever offered help without wanting something in return. No one except for Niko. He was there when I needed someone the most. Took care of me and my two girls. Showed them good men really do exist. Showed me. I never expected my life to be a fairy tale. And it’s not. Because someone tries to steal my prince before we can find our happily ever after.
