The Savior He Never Saw

I traded three years of my youth for a love that was nothing but a complete mistake.

I was the one who saved Lucas from that kidnapping chamber. I was the one whose wrist bears the scar from protecting him.

But he kept my words close and worshipped my sister as the light in his darkness.

My father forced me to marry into a wealthy family, to a useless man in a vegetative state, to plug the holes in our family business.

I thought Lucas would refuse on my behalf. Instead, he said.

"Hurry up and marry him. Don't hold up my wedding to Vivian."
