After My Twin Daughters Died, I Declared War on My HusbandChapter 1

Just because my five-year-old twin daughters ate leftover cake that belonged to my husband's childhood sweetheart, he sent them to the Discipline Academy.

The instructors stormed into our home to drag them away by force. My girls clung to the car door, sobbing, screaming for their daddy.

I dropped to my knees and begged.

"They're only five years old. They're just babies. A place like that will kill them. I'm their mother—I'm the one who failed to teach them properly. If someone has to be punished, punish me..."

But my husband just stood there with his arms around his precious Gretchen, watching the three of us with cold, detached eyes.

"If you hadn't spoiled them so much, they wouldn't have turned into the entitled little brats they are today. I'm their father. If you can't discipline them, I will. What—do you think I'd actually hurt my own children?"

The next day, I rushed to the academy with my sister-in-law.

What we found were my daughters' bodies. Covered in bruises. No longer breathing.

And my husband? He was on social media, celebrating the news that Gretchen was pregnant with his child.
