What I’d thought was my cage turned out to be my castle. The man I’d thought had come to hurt me turned out to be the prince I’d yearned for; my captor became my rescuer. Until he wasn’t. The castle was under siege from all sides, by enemies both known and unknown. Friends turned out to be enemies, and the enemies were worse than either of us could have imagined. Our fortress crumbled around us and I found myself in the hands of the cruelest man I’d ever known, the man who could turn my prince into a pauper with a snap of his fingers. And when the time came for my prince to protect me, he handed me over to the enemy as if I was worthless. I had faith in the man I’d come to love over the weeks I spent uncovering the fortress he kept around his heart. I waited, patient as ever, for him to come to me and take us somewhere we could finally be safe. Except he didn’t. Until it was too late.
