In my despair, I clung to her like a lifeline and believed her.
At first, she truly did everything perfectly.
It was as if she wanted to give me all the love my sister never got to finish giving.
Every two weeks, she would fly to my city, afraid that I would feel wronged or alone.
“Dorian, when the first snow falls, we’ll have our wedding. We’ll be the happiest couple in the world.”
Norwyn City’s seasons are usually as warm as spring, but that winter was especially cold.
The weather forecast said there would be a once-in-fifty-years first snow on Christmas Day.
I used the money I earned from my part-time job to buy a diamond ring and secretly bought a ticket home, planning a surprise for them.
But when I opened the door, what met my eyes was… my sister, chained and emaciated. And before her… two naked bodies, tangled together.
I felt as if I’d fallen into an ice cave, trembling all over, unable to stop myself from wanting to vomit.
I didn’t know whether I was angrier at them for abusing my sister or outraged by their betrayal of me.
The two most important people in my life had both betrayed me.
My mind went completely blank—but my sister saw me first.
