Unspoken Truths

By JRU

"You're always doing for everyone else. When's the last time you did something for you?"

Ahvi Braxton has always been the strong one. The fixer. The ride-or-die. But after years of pouring into a love that left her empty-especially one with Eli, the man who once promised forever-Ahvi is forced to reckon with a truth she's long ignored: loyalty can't fix what's already broken.

Wounded but not defeated, she steps away from the version of herself that's always played it safe, only to stumble into a life-and a love-she never saw coming.

Kaine Anderson has loved Ahvi from a distance for years. Even when she belonged to someone else. Even when that someone was family. Back in Mercy with old wounds and bigger intentions, Kaine is done being quiet. She deserves more-and he's ready to give her everything she's been denied... even if it costs him blood ties to do it.

Now Ahvi must choose: keep holding on to the past that keeps breaking her, or finally choose herself-even if it means letting go of everything she thought love was supposed to look like.
