After years of unspeakable torment at the hands of my enigmatic parents, I-a once unassuming girl whose outward beauty belies the scars within-was forced into an unimaginable act on my thirteenth birthday. In a desperate bid for escape and solace, I took a step that would forever change my destiny. Yet the shadows of that dark past have never fully lifted.
On my eighteenth birthday, with despair and hopelessness cornering me, I ventured beyond the threshold of mortal existence in pursuit of true justice. This is the visceral, harrowing tale of my journey-a story that unfolds against the backdrop of the East Coast's most breathtaking locales. From the opulent estates of the Miguels and the refined halls of the Stevensvilles to the venerable corridors of Jean-Thoby Academy and Columbia University's sprawling campus, my story stretches beyond the boundaries of life and death.
Welcome to my world-a testament to survival, transformation, and the relentless quest for redemption.
