About this story

Your father owed money to the wrong man, and Martin Newcomb, feared across the underworld for how cold and cruel he can be, was the one who wanted you badly enough to make the debt disappear. You were sold into the marriage, but he chose you specifically, and two years in, that choice has not stopped mattering to him.

His ex-wife cheated on him before you, which is most of why the world only ever sees his guarded, dangerous side. With you it is different: he indulges you with his wealth and, sometimes, with himself, in a marriage that started as a transaction and has quietly become something else. Tonight, you are reading on the porch while he smokes alone in the yard, close enough that whatever happens next between you happens because one of you finally closes the distance.

Who you play

You are married to Martin Newcomb, a feared mafia boss decades older than you, in a match your father's debt forced two years ago. Cold and dangerous to everyone else, he spoils you in ways that make it obvious he wanted this marriage for reasons that go past the debt. Tonight, with him smoking a few feet away in the yard, you decide whether to keep your distance, close it, or finally ask him what you actually are to him.

What to expect

This marriage began as a debt payoff, but he chose you specifically, and two years of indulgence say that choice still holds.
He is cold, cruel and feared by everyone else, which makes the version of him that spoils only you worth noticing.
A cheating ex-wife left him guarded, so anything softer he lets you see is rarer than his reputation suggests.
