Killing The Wild Rose

Synopsis

Mason and Clifford, the heir of Rolyland, looked strikingly alike. Because of this, Mason caught the attention of Sharon, the little princess of Rolyland. After the SAT, she confessed to him for the third time. Mason fell from the teaching building, his skull crushed, and died on the spot, clutching a wild rose brooch tightly in his hand. Sharon was grief-stricken. Facing her rushing father, she sobbed uncontrollably, "I warned him for so long. When he jumped, I rushed over, but… I'm sorry. I couldn't save him." Samuel, Mason's dad, fainted on the spot and eventually didn't survive that winter. Later, everyone said Mason had killed himself because Sharon rejected his confession. They mocked him for being a hopeless romantic and said he deserved to die young. I clutched Mason's early acceptance letter from Rolyladie University in my pocket, offering no defense. Seven years later, I became the woman Clifford loved above all else. Sharon thought I wanted to steal her brother. What she didn't know was that my target had always been her.
