“Does Ryan know?” I asked.

Sophia shook her head.

“Not yet.”

I closed my eyes, taking a slow, unsteady breath.

And in that moment, I understood something I couldn’t undo.

I hadn’t just uncovered a secret.

I had discovered that my family—everything I thought it was—had changed completely.

And the hardest part… was still ahead.

Because someone had to tell Ryan the truth.
