A father worried about why his daughter often remained behind in the school bus after others left, so he decided to find answers. What he found was not what he expected.Benjamin Bruce was a single dad who had to step in to become his child’s mother after she passed away. Their daughter, Emily, had been six when it happened. Ben loved his daughter because, to him, she was all that was left of his beloved wife, and he had also promised her that Emily would be well taken care of no matter what.To that end, Ben tried his best to juggle work while being present in his daughter’s life.
He had no other family he trusted to look after her, so he had to do everything himself. The first couple of years were rough on him as a parent, and just as he was acclimatizing to the rollercoaster, his daughter hit puberty, and at that point, things got wilder.She suddenly started going through physical changes right before his eyes, and he knew what they meant — the boys would be coming for her. How could they not; his daughter had his late wife’s red hair and deep green eyes that seemed designed to mesmerize. Even Ben was not immune to her eyes and had fallen prey to her will multiple times over the years.
