The pain was sharp, like a constant ache in her chest. She had lost not only Ethan but also the person she thought was her closest ally. Every corner of SilverMoore, once full of promise, now felt like a reminder of the heartbreak she had suffered. Her world was smaller now, the weight of betrayal suffocating.
What made it worse was that Kiara couldn’t escape. The two-year contract she had signed with her company kept her tethered to the city, forcing her to stay in a place filled with reminders of everything she had lost. Each day felt like a struggle to move through, like walking through fog.
