Home for Revenge

Synopsis

The day I was brought back to the family, the butler handed me a list of rules before I even crossed the threshold. "Bow when you see the master. Don't sit before he does. Never look Joyce in the eye." Upstairs, a tearful voice echoed. "Mom, she's not really staying, is she?" Phillip Hendrix, my eldest brother, replied coolly, "If she behaves, we'll keep her." Enzo Hendrix, my second brother, added with a smirk, "If she doesn't, she's gone by tonight." I stood in the living room, a worn sack from the mountains in my hand, and glanced down at the admission letter clutched in my fingers. What they didn't know that I wasn't here to fit in. I was here to take back the name that was mine and everything tied to it, including their fate.
