LOGINFor 15 years, Ravyn Hawkins believed that she was an orphan, stuck in an orphanage when a rich family swooped in claiming to be her biological family. She was happy thinking that she was finally going to be loved, only to see that they had adopted a baby after her disappearance who turned out to be Aspen Hawkins, the doted fragile heiress to the Hawkins Family. Ravyn Hawkins tried her best to fit in, hoping that one day her family would love her, just as they love Aspen but that dream never got fulfilled. Once she turned 18, she was set up by her family to take the fall for a murder that Aspen did, claiming that Aspen was too fragile and this was her way of paying them back for looking after her. With no one on her side, Ravyn was thrown in one of the most cruel and infamous prisons for 5 years. She got assaulted by an unknown inmate and got pregnant with twins. She never met the man again after that night and 4 year later, she was a young teen mum of Rhysand and Rhysian. But during a coup in prison, her son Rhysian was taken and she never found him. Now her sentence is out and she is picked up by her elder brother Nathan Hawkins , but what they don't know is that the girl that they sent into prison, is no longer the fragile timid girl they once thought they knew. Ravyn will do all she can to find out who stole her child and more importantly who assaulted her that night. And she will make sure she crushes the Hawkins family, leaving them in the dust.

His body was begging him to stop — his ribs were a sheet of fire, his shoulder had gone past pain into something numb and wrong, and every breath felt like it was being dragged through broken glass. But a man doesn't stop looking for his child. There is no pain in the world big enough to make him stop. So Dante pushed through the churning market on legs that didn't want to hold him, one arm wrapped around his own middle, turning in circles, searching every gap, every face, every small moving shape."RAEL!" His voice was shredded now, raw from screaming. "RAEL! Where are you! RAEL!"The crowd was in chaos around him. Something had happened near the toy stalls, some commotion, people shouting and pointing toward the river path, a fruit stand knocked over, somebody saying the word *police*. Dante couldn't make sense of any of it. The whole world had narrowed down to one thing. Find him. F
Chapter 225R understood everything in about four seconds.He was good at understanding things quickly. He'd always been good at it. And so when the biggest man he had ever seen scooped him up out of the scary man's hands and held him tight against a chest like a wall, and said, in a voice rough with fear and relief, *"I've got you, I've got you, you're safe, I've got you"* — R understood.These were the uncles.Rhysian's uncles. Uncle P and Uncle O. The horse and the knight. R had seen them a dozen times from across the park, two big men who watched over his friend, his brother, the boy with his same face. He knew exactly who they were.And they thought he was Rhysian.He could see it in their faces, close up now for the first time. The one holding him — Uncle O, it had to be, the grumpy one, except he didn't look grumpy now, he looked like he might cry — kept touching R's cap, his shoulder, his back, checking him over, saying his b
Chapter 224R's face changed then. Dante saw it happen, saw the exact moment the boy understood this wasn't a normal grown-up doing a normal thing, saw the confusion crack open into fear. R's mouth opened. His legs kicked. He twisted in the man's grip and his cap slipped and his small voice cut through the market noise, high and thin and terrified."PAPA!""RAEL!"Dante was ten feet away. Eight. He could almost reach them. He threw himself the last of the distance——and someone stepped back out of the shifting crowd, a big man with a crate, not part of it, just an ordinary frightened person getting out of the way, and his shoulder caught Dante square in the chest.Dante went down.It wasn't even a hard hit. On any other day it would have been nothing, a bump, a stumble he'd have shrugged off without breaking stride. But his ribs were still cracked and his balance was still wrong and his body had already spent everything it had, and the
Chapter 223 — The GrabThe afternoon was ordinary, right up until it wasn't.Dante had taken R to the riverside market on a Saturday, the way he'd promised. It was the busy one, the good one, with stalls packed tight along the water and a crowd thick enough that you had to hold hands to stay together. There was a man who sold roasted corn. There was a woman with painted kites on long strings. And near the far end, past the fruit sellers, there was a toy stall that R had been talking about all week, because it had the little dinosaurs. The toy ones. The three-horned kind."Can we see the dinosaurs now?" R asked, for the fourth time, tugging at Dante's good hand."Soon," Dante said. "Stay close. Hold on."His ribs ached. They always ached now, a dull deep burn that woke up whenever he did too much, and walking slow through a thick crowd with a five-year-old was apparently enough to do it. His shoulder was worse. The doctors had said six weeks minimum, an
