I promised that I would avenge her, and I always kept my promises.



I, Titus Mikhailov, am the calm that holds back the storm in my family. For years, I’ve kept the peace, negotiated, and found common ground between those I love most in this world. But some wounds cut too deep and can never be repaired.
My family is falling apart around me, anger swirling as betrayal takes the driver’s seat, and I fear for what will happen next.

So when my brother, my best friend, does the unspeakable, my normally calm demeanor snaps as my life shatters.
Among the turmoil, there is only one person who remains a constant with her unwavering Fawn, my ward. To want her is forbidden. To crave her is a sin, and to love her can destroy the fabric of my life.

There is very little in this world that means anything other than a man’s word, and I promised to take care of Fawn, but how do I protect her from myself?
