Kaitlin<\/b><\/p>\n
On the surface, my life is a flawless performance.<\/p>\n
I stay home, keep the house spotless, and play the role of the devoted wife. It doesn\u2019t matter that behind the curtains, the truth is darker than anyone could imagine. I\u2019ve mastered the art of concealing the bruises, spinning lies to explain the tears, and burying the horrors of what happened behind closed doors.<\/p>\n
Until her.<\/p>\n
Nora doesn\u2019t just see through my carefully crafted illusion\u2014she shatters it. She awakens something buried deep inside me, something raw, desperate, and hungry for escape.<\/p>\n
Being with her is wrong. The feelings she stirs in me are worse. But how can I turn away from the only thing that makes me feel alive?<\/p>\n
Nora<\/b><\/p>\n
The suburbs are supposed to be my quiet refuge, the fresh start I need after the military.<\/p>\n
Work at my brother\u2019s tattoo shop. Keep my head down. Follow my therapist\u2019s advice to \u201creconnect with normalcy.\u201d<\/p>\n
It was going perfectly\u2014until Kaitlin knocked on my door.<\/p>\n
Her smile is polite, her demeanor warm, but there\u2019s a shadow behind her eyes that pulls me in. I should know better. I should keep my distance. But the more I learn, the more I see the darkness she lives with\u2014the kind of darkness that feels eerily familiar.<\/p>\n
I keep telling myself I\u2019m not here to save anyone from monsters anymore. I\u2019m not here to destroy lives. But now that I\u2019ve seen her truth, walking away feels impossible.<\/p>\n
