His To Ruin
“Embarrassment can be useful, Victor. If you know how to weaponize it.”
He frowned, confused.
Robert turned back to the window, watching the reflection of flames flicker across both their faces. “Public humiliation,” he said softly, “isn’t death. It’s rebirth, if you know how to control the narrative.”
He hesitated. “What are you saying?”
“I’m saying,” Robert murmured, “that you’ll rise again. But not as the villain. As the victim.”
He stared, blinking. “The victim?”
“Yes. The betrayed brother. The faithful fiancé who loved too deeply. The heir who was destroyed by deceit.” Robert let the words roll off his tongue like silk. “The world loves redemption. It loves pain that looks pure.”
