My mother, General Victoria Sinclair, is the most prestigious female general. She despises injustice above all else.
That is why she has always treated Sienna better than me.
Whether it is a diamond necklace or the latest couture gown—everything goes to Sienna. I get one sentence: “She has grace. She deserves nice things. You are coarse. You would only embarrass yourself.”
Until tonight.
The Caldwell family proposed that Adrian Caldwell and I become engaged.
Adrian is the sole heir to the most powerful political dynasty on the Eastern Seaboard. I am my mother’s only biological daughter. Everyone in that ballroom expected her to accept.
Instead, she humiliated me in front of three hundred guests.
“Absolutely not. Mia is jealous, ill-mannered, and entirely without talent.
She is not worthy of Adrian Caldwell.”
I fled to the lounge to hide, only to hear my mother say to her adjutant outside the door:
“So Mia has feelings for Adrian. If she marries into the Caldwell family, everyone will say I showed favoritism toward my biological daughter. What happens to Sienna then?”
“I am protecting Mia from a marriage that does not suit her—and I am protecting Sienna. That is the most just outcome.”
My mother has protected her country. Protected her soldiers. Protected countless strangers.
She is a hero to everyone.
But she has never been mine.
So be it. I will leave with the person who actually chooses me.
And our relationship as mother and daughter—that ends tonight.
Forever.
