Why these tropes fit
A woman raised in foster care is reunited with Roman Riviera, the boy who once vowed to protect her but abandoned her three years earlier. Roman returns in the middle of the night, covered in the blood of her foster family and carving his initials into her foster brother's skin. He ties her up and drags her away from the life she built without him. When she tries to escape, he chases her and declares he is back for good and she will never be free of him. A dark reunion between two broken people bound by their shared past in the foster system.
