I Was His Safe Choice—Now I’m Gone
He called me ‘marriage material’—but not worth loving. On the eve of our wedding, I discovered Mason’s spreadsheet: every woman ranked, every feeling reduced to a checklist, and my own column stamped ‘suitable for marriage.’ His heart still belonged to Jordan, the wild first love he’d never dare choose. My world collapsed, but instead of breaking, I ran—straight into the life I’d buried, the mother I’d lost, and the courage I thought I’d forgotten. As family secrets and old wounds ignite a public showdown, I must decide: will I keep living for someone else’s rules, or finally claim my own story? If you were chosen for convenience, can you ever become someone’s first choice—or is the bravest thing to walk away?
