Chapter 58 - THE WOMAN SHE BECAMEEmily walked outside after midnight.

The gardens were quiet.
White lilies moved gently in the breeze.
She touched the silver bracelet that had saved her life.
She thought about the woman she had been.
A wife who trusted too easily.
A daughter who knew too little.
A victim who believed she had no power.
That woman was gone.
But Emily didn't hate her.

She forgave her.
Because she had survived.
