If You Wish for Me
“Do you really think a girl like you could ever become a painter ? What a ridiculous waste—of paper, of time, of money.”
Trapped in the suffocating grip of Count Reaven’s abuse,
Britney lived each day with no way out.
And yet, despite her father’s relentless opposition,
her one and only source of hope was her art.
For in the act of painting,
she found a fleeting escape from a hellish reality—
a moment of stolen happiness.
“I won’t take the money.Instead, I’ll take your daughter.”
On yet another day when her father’s fists flew without mercy,
a creditor named Klein witnessed it all.
And rather than accepting the ten thousand pounds owed to him,
he chose her.
‘Will he use me as a maid?
He’s a shrewd businessman—
perhaps he intends to make me do the work no one else wants.
Or worse, to keep me as his mistress…
a plaything to mock and trample like Father always did.’
Klein de Windsor.
Was he her savior—
or the beginning of yet another living nightmare?
