Bound Heart

I was dead. Until I wasn't.

Believed to have been killed in combat, I returned to a life that had moved on without me. The woman I had loved had found solace in the arms of another—my own brother.

Betrayed and shattered, I closed my heart to the possibility of love. A fractured soul like mine didn't deserve a second chance. Nightmares tormented my every moment, making love seem like an impossible dream.

Until her.

She ignited a spark within me that I had long thought extinguished, buried beneath the weight of my past. When I'm with her, the darkness that once consumed me disappears. And for the first time since coming home, I want something more.

Can this fiery woman prove that life is worth living, or will I forever remain trapped in the shadows that haunt my soul?
