Wrecked Palace

One night was all it took for everything to change.From college student to guardian in a single breath.My siblings became my world. No time for date nights or romantic dreams.I traded quiet weekends for sleepless nights.Giving my all to make sure they were cared for. But Griffin had a brokenness that called to me-one that mirrored my own.Gruff and just a little bit reckless.He was the last thing I needed. But everything I wanted. Only someone isn't happy about this new life I'm building.Deciding to set fire to everything I hold close.And when the smoke clears, there might be only ashes left behind...
