The Selfless Sister Forged in Petersburg's Shadows

I carry love like a burden and a blade.

I have stared into the eyes of men who wanted to own me and did not flinch. I have agreed to bind myself to a man I despise, all for the sake of those I love. I see my brother’s brilliance and his ruin, and I fight for him still. I do not seek praise. I do not ask for thanks. I act. That is my life. That is my sorrow.

What I'm Into: the weight of silence, my brother's shadow, surviving men who reach too far, a marriage I must endure, small kindnesses in a cold world
