In my past life, a nurse’s mistake made me the fake daughter the Hendersons accidentally took home.
Meanwhile, Luma grew up with the Kanes, pampered in luxury and warmth.
While she danced ballet in USO troops, I slaved away at the Hendersons‘,
Kellan? Just another orphan dumped at the Hendersons‘ when his mom vanished.
The Hendersons barely cared for their own kids like me, so Kellan had it even worse.
1, their maid. Ite, their gofer.
We had each other’s backs through thick and thin.
I thought he was my whole world.
But holy shit, his eyes were always on Luna.
Everything shattered during that USO show.
Luna was dancing–until Colonel Hawthorne’s wife stormed up, screaming about her husband’s affair and Luna was that third wheel
That scandal destroyed the Kanes.
Jasper Kane got accused of pimping out his daughter for favors–career over.
Orders came down: the whole Kane family, exiled to Alaska.
That’s when dad pounced, climbed the ranks overnight.
Suddenly, we all rose with him.
I obeyed Hendersons every demand, and helped Kellan climb to the top.
He delivered–aced his pilot exam, broke into the inner circle…
But he always looked toward Alaska.
I thought he was ambitious.
Turns out, the asshole was just pining for Luna.
By thirty, the Kanes were dying off in that harsh climate. Luna vanished.
That’s when my parents forced Kellan to marry me.
Years later, dad’s kidneys failed. He needed a transplant.
Only when my adoptive mother guilted me on my deathbed did the truth come out – I wasn’t really their daughter.
While Mr. Henderson begged for a kidney, Mrs. Henderson search for her real daughter–Luna.
All she found was a grave.
Luna had died from an STD.
Kellan used to say I stole Luna’s place.
I never cared.
But only God knew.
