"She still believed I saved her, without knowing I was repaying her for rescuing me."
Addison
How could someone possibly love all of my broken pieces?
For so long I asked this question, until I met James. Marrying a psychologist was never in my plans, not that I had any. Surviving the first seventeen years of my life was my only goal. Now, through the use of dream interpretation, and his own devised methods, my husband was mending my broken pieces.
James
The calm to her chaos.
Addison never knew the darkness that plagued me before meeting her. Now, my soul craved every piece of who she was. I could never repay her for pulling me from the shadows, but between the four walls of a hidden room, I'd show her my gratitude until our dying breath. The only issue? I wanted so badly to heal her of her past, I didn't consider the monster that would haunt her present could actually be related to me.
