Seraphina spent her life as an unwanted orphan. At sixteen, the truth unraveled: she was the lost heiress of the powerful Lancaster family, stolen at birth and finally found. For the first time, she thought she’d have a home and a family. 
But the Lancaster mansion was colder than any orphanage, and her so-called sister made sure her life ended in silence and pain. Shunned by her new siblings and tormented by the one they called “daughter.” She was nothing but an outcast in a house of wealth and secrets.
Until cancer took her life.
However, death wasn’t the end.
Seraphina awakens in her past, at her most broken and helpless moment. But this time, something has changed.
She was stripped of her autism but still carried every scar. Seraphina tried to escape her nightmare, only to fall into the hands of a stranger with blood on his fists and secrets in his eyes.
He knows her brothers. And this time, they are not letting her suffer alone.
She may not believe in family anymore…
 But they believed in her and were ready to spoil her.

Somehow, deep down, I knew she was telling the truth. There was something in the way she stood her ground, even when everything and everyone seemed to gather against her. My body had reacted instinctively, siding with Melissa, but my heart… it wasn't on the same page.


And then my mother spoke. She was cold and dismissive. Her words cut sharply, not just into Seraphina, but into me also. I saw the way Seraphina flinched, barely. The way her eyes darkened when she called herself an orphan. That word cut deep through in the tense atmosphere, but it cut deeper into my heart!


I wasn't supposed to care. I didn't even know her. And yet, here I was, wrestling with a guilt that shouldn't have been mine to carry. Feeling too much for a girl, I barely understood or even hated her to the core.
