Xyriel reaches the Black Door—the place her story was always leading. Inside, she uncovers the full truth of what happened the night her mother vanished. But this final step isn’t about answers. It’s about peace.
In the quiet aftermath of remembering, she chooses self-love a third and final time—not to fix the past, but to stop running from it.
Not for closure.
Just to stay.
This is the closing chapter of The Three Times I Loved Myself—a trilogy about loving the one who survived, the one who is still unraveling, and the one who chooses peace, even without a perfect ending.
