Betrayal cuts the deepest.

I would know better than anyone.

They never suspected me to be the villain.

That didn’t matter anymore, though, because I didn’t just want revenge, I needed it.

Leaving my old life behind, I knew I could never return, but there was something … no, someone I had left behind.

Scarlett.

Kind. Innocent. Fragile.

She was a light in the darkness of my life.

Back then, she was always meant to be mine, even if having her meant breaking every single rule.

Now, enemies or not, she would still be mine.
