SIENNA
Our marriage was supposed to be fake.
The rings were tape. The contract had an end date. Then I fell in love with my husband, and now I'm carrying his baby, and he doesn't know.
I can't tell him. Not yet. I've watched a man stay out of duty and hate every day of it, and I'd rather lose Ronan Wolfe than be the reason he can't leave.
So I keep the secret. And the secret starts to show.
Then somebody leaks the contract. The city that loved us turns on us overnight, and the job I've wanted my whole life hangs by a thread.
One of us has to go. I never thought he'd decide it without me.
RONAN
I've spent my whole life being told I'm too much. Too big, too loud, too dangerous to keep.
She keeps me anyway.
I'm in love with my wife. I told her in my grandmother's kitchen, in the town I grew up in, and she cried and didn't say it back, and I don't care. I'll say it for both of us.
Then the whole league finds out our marriage started as a lie.
They want her job. They want my contract. They want somebody to pay.
So I'll pay. Quietly. Before she can stop me.
She'll hate me for it. She'll still have everything she ever wanted.
