When we were kids, I made a promise to protect her. But I never got the chance.
She was my first love. The girl who owned my whole heart before the world tore us apart.
I thought I’d buried those memories for good.
Then she walked back into my life.
Wounded. Shattered. Trapped in a marriage to a man unworthy of her.
She’s not looking for a hero. She doesn’t need saving. She needs someone who sees her. Someone who remembers the beautiful girl behind the pain.
I see her.
And this time, I won’t let her down.
I’ll keep my promise. I’ll keep her safe.
Even if I have to destroy everything in my path to do it.
