Then she whispered something that made me realize the threats were only the beginning.

“He also promised me things,” she said quietly. “College. A car. Connections. He said he’d make me part of his brand. He said people would love us.”

There he was—Chase, her biological father.

Everything about him looked like a performance: a designer leather jacket, perfectly styled hair, and—ridiculously—sunglasses at night.
