✦ Synopsis

After spending twenty years in prison while my family tried to pretend I didn’t exist, the one thing on my mind is getting some fucking payback for their abandonment. But when I show up at my Pop’s place, looking for vengeance, he’s not there.

I’m not alone for long, though.

While I prowl through the empty house, the darkness inside me twisting and seething as my pent up aggression yearns for an outlet, a ray of fucking sunshine walks through the door.

My brother never thought I was good to meet his newborn son before I get locked up, but it doesn’t matter that this is the first time I’m laying eyes on the boy.

I’d recognize little Ethan anywhere.

Not because he’s got the same blue eyes I do or the sweet innocence of a boy who’s grown up free from the hell I was just released from. But because I recognize something in his wide eyes and eager smile. Something that goes beyond our shared DNA.

Something that tells me he’s mine.
