Lilith’s Pov
I don’t know why I expected Killian to be okay with the divorce.
Why did I think he’d sign the papers and walk away like it meant nothing?
Now he’s talking about burning the world for me?
This is stupid.
This is insane.
What kind of mess is this?
I was supposed to take this secret, my sister’s secret to the grave. It was never supposed to come out like this. And now it’s everywhere. Raw. Exposed. Bleeding in the open.
What if Dad finds out?
God… he can’t find out. He can’t.
He’ll blame himself for everything. He’ll think he failed her. That he failed all of us. And Mom…Mom took her own life because of this secret. Because of the shame. The silence. The endless burden of pretending.
Now everything’s crumbling.
My mind is cluttered. I can’t even find a single thought
