Sacred Truths - NV Roez

Everyone wants to wear the crown. though few can bear the weight.
On paper, I have it all. Old money, heiress to an empire. The entire city carries my family's name.
But I never wanted any of it.
Everything changed four years ago when the legacy children entered the Rites of Passage. These tests continue to prove the Dawn of the Divine owns us, regardless of what we thought.
We go through the motions, but we're all hiding a part of ourselves. There's something sacred in keeping secrets until they threaten your life.
All I've ever wanted was the freedom to find my passions, to make mistakes, to have a choice. That was a child's dream.
Now, I know better, and my lies will only forsake me.
While I'm the obedient daughter at home, people fear me in school. I've already lost too much of myself and gained nothing but enemies in return. I don't know how much more I can take.
They say we all have a role to play; however, the power of the Silva name isn't just for signing checks.
I'm not the pawn they think I am. Underestimating me will be their mistake.
I am Valentina Silva, sole heir to the throne.
