I signed my name and voluntarily waived my final appeal. Because my husband, the man hailed as a legal savior, had missed the deadline to save me—for the ninth time—all for another woman. For eleven years, every time my case reached a critical point, his young protégée would have an “emergency,” right on schedule. Tonight, all she needed was an escort to a fundraising gala. I needed him to file the motion that would keep me alive. He chose her. So I chose death. But when I finally made my choice, he lost his mind. On the other side of the visitation glass, he dropped to his knees and sobbed, begging me to take it back, begging me to let him save me. ... Today was the deadline for my ninth and final application for a stay of execution. The air in the Texas Mountain View Unit always smelled of disinfectant and despair.

At the charity gala, my father handed the community center proposal I’d spent days building to my stepsister, Chloe. In front of everyone. The entire room applauded her. My husband, Liam, stood beside her, smiling as if they were the stars of the evening, not me. During intermission, Chloe came over with a glass of champagne and lowered her voice. “Ava, don’t look so sad.” “Even though you’re his wife, when he has to choose, he always chooses me.” In that moment, a wave of exhaustion washed over me. I didn’t want my father’s favoritism anymore. I didn’t want Liam anymore either. I looked at her, then at the man who was finally starting to panic. “If you want him that badly, he’s yours.” “Liam, my lawyer will contact you tomorrow.” That was it.
