She Raised Him Up, Then Burned Him Down

Sophia is the only heir to the powerful Jason family of Porthaven, and for five years she kept a promise that shaped her entire life. The source line breaks off mid-thought, so the story here sets up her long devotion and the weight of what she has carried since. The title hints at a bond built with care that later turns sharp and painful. Sophia's loyalty and her regrets now stand at the center of a family drama about power, promises, and the cost of keeping them.
