“Before I died, I was the merchant's brat who "married above her station." Sterilized. Bleed dry. Thrown out like trash. I burned the Thorne name to ash-with them still inside it. Now I'm back. My real mother's pimping me for status. My sister's wearing my dead mother's jewels. And they're all scheming to hand me back to the man who killed me. Shame. They think I'm here to forgive. I'm here to finish the job.”
