Sister, Dearest

Summary

I was born with a wicked heart. As the true heiress to the Vance fortune, I was brought back to the family estate at fourteen. And while I was busy plotting 108 different ways to ruin Celine Croft, the girl who had taken my place, she became the only person in that cold, cavernous house who genuinely protected me.

She called herself my knight and I her beautiful princess. A knight’s sole duty, she would say, was to guard her princess.

I scoffed at her naive sentimentality, told her it was useless in a world like ours.
