A Court Of Wings And Ruin

A divorce paper was thrown right at her face the same day she gave birth, and as if that wasn't enough, he confiscated her child, sending her away with nothing. Five years later, he regrets his actions and wants her back, but it's already too late.

Slowly, on all fours, I obeyed… --- Alessandra has always been the family push over even when her father forces her into a marriage.
