Her Last Gift
Everyone knew that Daniel Cardea kept the most obedient mistress.
I had no temper, no dignity, and no spine. I stayed ready to kneel at his feet.
This lawyer, the best in all of Silverton, trapped the rest of my life with a single contract. He felt certain that no law could help me break it.
He was right. The law governed the living, not the dead.
On his 30th birthday, I planned to give him a carefully prepared gift. I planned to end this indefinite contract with my heart once it stopped beating.
February 16, 2026. It was three days until Daniel’s birthday, three days until the surprise arrived.
