The Shared Pain, Princess's Battle for Justice

Summary

The agonizing pain, the kind that eats at your marrow, was inflicted entirely on me.

I was plagued by constant agony, wasting away in bed for years.

She used this supposed life-saving sacrifice to gain favor with Caleb, eventually standing as my equal in his heart.

When I coughed up blood and finally told him the truth, his eyes burned with a scorching fury.

"Are you having fun pretending to be sick?" he sneered.
