Kneel for Me

By Destiny McBurnett

Home isn't a place. It's a choice that you make every day.

Aster survived eight weeks at a wilderness therapy program designed to "fix" girls who question, resist, and refuse to comply. Now she's living with the Hayes family, trying to rebuild a life her mother destroyed.

She wasn't supposed to fall for Enzo Hayes.

He's patient where she's guarded. Gentle where she's been taught that men only take. And when he touches her, she remembers what it feels like to want something-not because she's told to, but because she chooses it.

But the program taught her that trust is a weapon. That good things don't last. That letting someone in means giving them the power to destroy you.

Enzo sees past the compliance they beat into her. He sees the girl who's still fighting underneath. He wants to show her that surrender doesn't have to mean submission. That her body belongs to her-and choosing to give it freely is the most powerful thing she can do.

But when Enzo is forced to make a choice about their relationship, it breaks them both. Aster has to decide: can she forgive betrayal that came from love? Can she trust again when trust nearly killed her? Or will she finally do what the program never could-choose herself, even if it means walking away?
