Riley was raised in a rogue settlement, orphaned and forgotten—until one day, the prestigious Vale family came to claim her as their long-lost daughter.

She thought she’d finally found a home.

But when she arrived at the Ebonclaw estate, she found another girl already living her life—Scarlett, the adopted daughter they had pampered and praised for years.

Her so-called parents favored the fake.

Her biological brother, Kael, lied in court to send her to prison—just to protect the imposter.

Even her mate stood on the witness stand and turned against her.

To protect Scarlett, they framed Riley for a crime she didn’t commit.

They sent her to prison.

They shattered her body and nearly broke her mind.

For five years, she endured.

For five years, she suffered.

And now—she’s back.

The once-favored daughter hides in shame.

Her brother watches her with guilt in his eyes.

Her parents beg for forgiveness.

But Riley is no longer the naive girl they discarded.

She’s colder. Sharper. Unbreakable.

The family who betrayed her wants her to kneel before their enemies, beg for peace, and sacrifice herself again for their legacy.

But this time, Riley won’t bend.

She’ll burn everything down first.
