Delirium by L.K. Reid

I was a scapegoat. The one person everyone blamed for all the bad things in their life.

A villain.
An assassin.
Baba Yaga.

The girl that killed without remorse.
The monster they warned their kids about.
But I fought my way out of the darkness they threw me into. I destroyed those that killed pieces of my soul, finding my way to the one man that could understand me. Put me back together.
Love me.
He was my calm. The salve for my wounds when I needed to heal.
And just when I thought things were working out, that happiness was within reach, an enemy I never saw coming appeared in my life, threatening to shatter the fragile peace I wrapped myself into.
But I wasn’t alone anymore. I wasn’t a frail little girl they could use. The life I’ve led taught me how to fight, how to defend those I loved the most, and my enemies… They had no idea who they were messing with.
My name is Ophelia Aster, and this is the end of my story.
