LAKEN

I was a fraud.

Lying to cover my past.

But when you’ve grown up in a world that has caused so much pain, you’d do almost anything to try and escape the guilt.

For years I lived in hell, paying my dues.

Seeing the spark in her eyes, I was instantly addicted. There was this chaos that whipped around her, it was beautiful and fierce, but I could tell it was used to keep people away.

So I knew I had to use it to keep her warm.

The demons of her past are coming back for her.

And they’re about to realize she's no longer standing alone.
