The Girl Who Burned and Rose

I'd been Liam's secret girlfriend for seven years, even carrying his child, only to hear he was proposing to his first love.

For a fake scratch on her arm, he shoved me, sending me crashing into the corner of a table.

I lost our baby, and almost bled to death.

He slapped me, his voice chilling.

"You're a truly wicked woman. I must have been blind to ever love you."

Later, swayed by his first love's lies, he drove my mother to her death and let my brother suffer such severe bullying that he jumped from the school building.

And I was locked in a mansion, consumed by a raging inferno.
