Ink & Bone — Skyla Madi

Amidst the chaos of my life, I've realized that not all wars can be won. I see it now. My stubbornness was peeled away, allowing me to see through my unrealistic desire to take down a powerful criminal empire. I see it…and it's too late. I never could turn my back on family -- even when I know I should. It would have been okay. It should have been okay…but it wasn't, and now the stain of betrayal is too prominent to ignore. I blame my brother… I blame my friend… …I blame myself.
