Prisoner

Theo
I've never been treated as an equal.


My mother's dead. My father doesn't care.


Ever since I was young, I've been contained within the walls of my home; trapped and alone.


Although being confined and held captive isn't entirely new to me, nothing could've prepared me.
Being King Rhivers' prisoner is unlike anything I've experienced before.


He likes to think he owns me, likes to think of himself as the King.
And sure, I may be in his cuffs now, but I'm Theodora Harlow.
And it's my turn to reign.


King
I've never been in charge of my own life.


Until my father died, he was the one in control, but now, with my father finally out of the picture,
I control everything.


It's time for me to run the Three Districts.


It's everything I ever wanted.


Including my new little prisoner, rotting away in the District prison, with my handprint still bruised around her neck.


I wasn't expecting to have her in my clutches again, but now I do, I'm not sure I can let go.
It's time for me to show her who the King really is.
