[The Ugly Roses 02] • Concealed Affliction

Ryder has been my light in a hurricane, but even I know the sun can't shine all the time.

This journey of mine only leaves me two choices and neither satisfy me.

Do I continue on my path towards retribution for my family?

Or do I focus on the first man to crack my ice-cold heart?

He's the only man who has ever made me feel safe at night; the first to truly accept all of me- scars included.

I'm at a crossroad, and no matter which way I turn, I'm fucked.

Ryder or retribution?

This life of mine isn't a fairy tale, I know I can't have both.
