About

He was the boy they never wanted, a mere afterthought overshadowed by the promise of a perfect sibling. Desmond’s childhood was marred by neglect and painful sacrifices, all in the name of a love that never truly existed. Now, he finds himself inexplicably reborn, facing the same choices and the same toxic family dynamic that once stripped him of his identity.

As he navigates the familiar yet suffocating environment, Desmond is determined to rewrite his story. Will he succumb to the expectations of a family that only sees him as a means to an end, or will he finally break free from their chains? With a glimmer of hope ignited by his second chance, he grapples with the weight of his past and the shadow of his brother, whose arrival once sealed his fate.

But the stakes are higher this time. As Desmond steps into the role of a big brother he never wanted, can he learn to forge his own path, or will history repeat itself? In a world where love is conditional and loyalty is tested, will Desmond rise to become the pride of a nation, or will he remain the son they cast aside?

Reborn The Son They Threw Away Became the Nation's PrideChapter 1

I was the throwaway child, the first draft they never planned to keep.

Mom and Dad sat me down together and asked if I wanted a little brother.

I looked at the toy car in my hands, the only toy I owned, and shook my head solemnly.

"I don't want a little brother. And I don't want a little sister either."

But they never cared what I thought. They laughed, handed me off to my grandparents, and didn't come back for a full year. When they finally did, they had a chubby baby boy in their arms.

Mom said he'd be my playmate. My flesh and blood.

But I never even made it to adulthood. My brother got leukemia.

I was strapped to an operating table, again and again, while thick steel needles punched through bone into marrow.

When his kidneys failed, Mom signed a voluntary organ donation consent form on my behalf. She had every legal right. She was my guardian.

I dropped to my knees and begged. I told them I had a clotting disorder. But Mom and Dad decided I was lying. They called me cold-blooded. They held me down while a nurse pushed the anesthetic into my veins.
