04:31Il y avait trois floors.
04:32Je suis allé à la seconde.
04:34J'ai le second floor avec Milo.
04:34Caius a la même troisième floor à lui.
04:37Le butler me walked dans mon room et me dit un dernier warning.
04:40Vous ne vous êtes pas à la troisième.
04:41Ever.
04:42Il y avait une voix qui a l'air.
04:43Le dernier cat qui a l'air a la tête qui a l'air a la tête et était en
04:47train de l'air.
04:48Je me suis allé à l'air.
04:49Je me suis allé à l'air.
04:50J'ai pas eu.
04:51Vous avez ma word.
04:52Le grand-enfant s'est mis en train de faire.
04:55Milo était only quatre et s'est passé dans sa maison sans faire.
04:58C'est un peu plus difficile.
04:59I just changed into the silk pajamas from the closet
05:03The knock made me jump
05:04Come down, let's talk
05:08Pius was on the couch in the great room
05:10Long legs crossed, whiskey in his hand
05:12I sat across from him on the other couch
05:14Hands in my lap, knees together
05:16Like a job interview
05:18You're good with kids
05:19You have one of your own
05:23No
05:24I helped raise my ex's nephew for two years
05:27My ex belonged to the Rens
05:28A newly risen fox family in the upper city
05:31Back then, his mother decided I
05:33A low-born human
05:34Was unfit to be seen in public up there
05:36They ordered me to quit the job I had found myself
05:38And called it generosity
05:39Then, after I did
05:41They said I was lazy with nothing to do
05:43So they fired the nanny
05:44And dumped his sister's spoiled brat on me
05:47More free servant than mate
05:48Pius nodded
05:49He touched his earring
05:50And a holographic screen appeared
05:53File says you're divorced
05:56Yes
05:58Reason?
05:59A human girl like me wasn't worthy of a noble upper city fox family
06:02I guess
06:03Only a coward would say that
06:04You saw the ad
06:06I'm hiring a mother for Milo
06:08Not a date for myself
06:10Some rogue shifters terrified him when he was little
06:13He's been insecure ever since
06:15Hates leaving the home
06:16Has never had a single friend
06:19I work long hours
06:21I need someone with patience
06:23Someone who'll stay
06:25His gaze settled on me
06:28There'll be a prenup
06:30Everything stays separate
06:33Especially in bed
06:37Marriage in the rich upper city was a contract
06:39Before it was anything else
06:41Mine with Lucien had been for love
06:43But because of the gap between our families
06:45I'd signed one with him too
06:46When the love ran out
06:47I walked away with nothing
06:48Not even my ring
06:49Let alone a powerful beast house like the Draven's
06:52They'd only be more careful
06:54I understand
06:56Honestly if you just need someone in the house
06:58We don't have to make it legal
07:01I'm fine without the paperwork
07:03Marriage is for Milo
07:04He needs the most stable mother I can give him
07:06And marriage
07:07And marriage is the strongest contract there is
07:10It made sense
07:11I understand
07:12Don't worry
07:13You'll get a hundred thousand a month for expenses
07:16And a legal identity in upper city
07:18This was the part I cared about
07:19I'd been burned before
07:21Mr. Draven
07:23If we ever divorce
07:24Do I keep the money you've given me?
07:26Of course
07:27If it's yours then I'm all okay with it
07:30As for sex
07:31I knew some beastmen had an insatiable sex drive
07:34I kept my head down
07:35Not daring to look at him
07:37I don't need anything from you there
07:41That's fine
07:41Neither do I
07:42So
07:43Three days after I signed divorce papers
07:46I got married again
07:47No ceremony
07:48No guests
07:49Same as my first wedding
07:50The butler added an extra dish to dinner
07:52I thought that was the celebration
07:54But then Caius slid a signet ring across the table
07:56A Draven house ring
07:58A key to the power of the entire upper city
08:00That's not necessary
08:05Lucian never even gave me his family ring
08:08For Milo's sake
08:09Then I understood
08:10The kid needed the illusion of a family
08:12I went quiet
08:13And finally took it
08:14I'll keep it safe
08:15That night
08:16I'd just gotten into bed
08:17When the door creaked open
08:18Milo stood in the doorway
08:19Bare feet
08:20Hair sticking up
08:21Fidgeting with his dinosaur pajamas
08:23What's up kiddo?
08:24Aria?
08:26Can you read me a bedtime story?
08:29What?
08:30I'll get my dad to pay you extra
08:32If you don't want to
08:34Forget it
08:38Come here
08:39I held the covers open
08:40He scrambled in
08:41Like he'd been waiting for it all day
08:45Halfway through the story
08:46He was out cold against my shoulder
08:48Next morning at breakfast
08:49Caius' eyes widened
08:51When the butler told him
08:52Milo had slept in my bed
08:53Aria
08:54That was above and beyond
08:56I'll add another 50,000 a month
08:59Mr. Draven
09:00That's way too much
09:01It was
09:02By a lot
09:03I'd given far more than this
09:04In my last marriage
09:05Yet when the divorce was finalized
09:07I could not even afford a hotel
09:08During the day
09:09I babysat his nephew
09:11At night
09:11I cooked for my husband
09:12After satisfying
09:13His excessive desires at night
09:15I still had to wake up at five
09:17To clean the house
09:17And make breakfast
09:18His mother judged
09:19We could hire someone
09:21But Aria just sits around all day
09:23Wouldn't be fair
09:24And on the day of the divorce
09:25His sister told the lawyer
09:26I'd been
09:27Living off them for three years
09:30Mr. Draven
09:31It's really too much
09:33I like Milo
09:34He's a sweet kid
09:35Reading him a book is nothing
09:37As I said it
09:38Milo came over
09:39And grabbed my fingers
09:40With his small warm hand
09:45Milo looked up at me
09:46With those big round eyes
09:47He was actually moved
09:49You don't know
09:50The women before you
09:51Only cared about impressing me
09:54They ignored him
09:5750,000
09:58That's the new number
10:00Not negotiable
10:00I gave up and thanked him
10:01From that day on
10:02Milo was my shadow
10:04Caius was buried in his syndicate
10:05The gene deals
10:06The arms
10:07The blood
10:07The huge tower
10:08Was usually just the two of us
10:09I did my best to play with him
10:11And make him happy every day
10:12Until the day
10:12I had a follow up at the clinic
10:14The butler had warned me
10:15Milo couldn't leave the tower
10:17Outside set off panic attacks
10:20Hey babe
10:22Wait for me at home
10:23I'll be back in an hour
10:24He grabbed my hand
10:25And wouldn't let go
10:26Didn't say a word
10:27Just looked at me
10:28With those dark sad eyes
10:29The butler sighed
10:30He's scared you won't come back
10:31His mother left him
10:32Exactly like that
10:34I'm coming back
10:35I'll see the doctor
10:36And come right home
10:37You play here okay
10:39I was still mid-sentence
10:40When he climbed
10:41Into the back seat of the car
10:42The butler tried not to hope
10:45Master Milo
10:47You're going to the clinic
10:48With Miss Bennett
10:52Thank god
10:54He's finally willing to leave the tower
10:58Your depression's improving
11:00Keep it slow
11:01Stay relaxed
11:03I took the script
11:03And the meds
11:04And left
11:05Milo was waiting in the lobby
11:06With his little dragon toy
11:08Aria
11:09Are you sick?
11:11A little
11:11Kiddo
11:12I used to skip meals a lot
11:13So I got sick
11:14Promise me
11:15You'll never let yourself
11:16Get like that
11:16Does it hurt?
11:18If it hurts
11:18I can give you candy?
11:19He pulled a piece of candy
11:21From his pocket
11:21And pressed it into my palm
11:24Daddy told me candy
11:25Makes you forget
11:26My tears fell without warning
11:28In the Wren house
11:28I'd cry
11:29And they'd call it dramatic
11:30Lower city girl
11:32Can't handle the lifestyle
11:34A human is just too weak
11:36I told Lucian I had depression
11:38You were making it up
11:39To ruin my mood
11:41Stop faking it for attention
11:42The nephew I'd raised
11:44For two years
11:44Called me ugly
11:45And grasping on divorce day
11:47And here was this
11:48Four year old
11:48Beast air
11:49Handing me his last
11:50Piece of candy
11:51I scooped him up
11:52And held him tight
11:53So small
11:54So warm
11:54He patted my back
11:55With one tiny hand
11:57Aria
11:57I'm going to eat every meal
11:59So I can grow up
12:00And protect you
12:01I laughed through tears
12:03You'd better grow fast babe
12:04When we walked out
12:05Of the clinic
12:06A blacked out limo
12:07Idled at the curb
12:08Caius leaned against it
12:09Charcoal suit
12:10Hands in his pockets
12:11Everyone stared
12:12I walked over
12:13With Milo's hand
12:14In mine
12:16Mr. Drafen
12:17Why are you here?
12:21He scooped his son
12:22Into his arms
12:22Seeing how calm
12:23The boy was
12:24His eyes suddenly reddened
12:25His voice turned
12:26Rough with feeling
12:28The butler called
12:29Said Milo went out
12:30With you
12:30I had to see it
12:31Milo reached for my hand
12:32From his father's arms
12:33As long as I'm with Era
12:34You can stop worrying
12:36Caius looked at me
12:37For a long moment
12:38Then nodded
12:39I know
12:40That night
12:41He tried to raise
12:41My pay again
12:42This time
12:43A black card
12:43I refused so hard
12:45That he laughed
12:47Aria
12:48There must be
12:49Something you want
12:50I thought about it
12:51Could you help me
12:51Find a used car
12:525,000 or under
12:53So I can take Milo out
12:55Without depending
12:55On the driver
12:57Pick anything
12:58From the garage
12:59The cheapest car
13:01In your garage
13:01Is a quarter million
13:02I wouldn't dare
13:03Drive it
13:03He considered it
13:04Fine
13:05Next morning
13:05An old beat up
13:06Sedan was parked
13:07Beside his hover limo
13:09He also flew
13:09In a psychiatrist
13:10A big name
13:11From the western districts
13:13Same diagnosis
13:14As the clinic
13:14But this time
13:15My meds were upgraded
13:16To the brand
13:17I'd never been able
13:17To afford
13:18On the way out
13:19The doctor told Caius
13:20Your wife needs company
13:22Family
13:23Don't push her too hard
13:24Caius' face was serious
13:26I'll remember that
13:27The next day
13:27I drove Milo out with me
13:29He'd always been insecure
13:30Had barely seen
13:31The outside world
13:32Now I wanted to
13:33Show it to him
13:34First
13:34The amusement park
13:35He grabbed my hand
13:36And dragged me
13:37To take pictures
13:38With the dragon mascot
13:39Then I took him
13:40To the open market
13:40He'd never been
13:41To a market in his life
13:42He trailed behind me
13:43Holding a live lobster
13:45In a plastic bag
13:46His perfect little face
13:47Frozen in horror
13:48Aria
13:49I don't want to hold this
13:51My hands are full Milo
13:53Just a few steps
13:54Fine
13:55One time only
13:56And no more lobster
13:59I was hiding a smile
14:00When I heard the voice
14:01From the parking lot
14:03Aria
14:06It was Lucian
14:07My ex-husband
14:10He was in a crisp brown suit
14:13With the tips of his fox ears
14:14Catching the light
14:15Like he'd stepped off
14:16A feed cover
14:17It had been five weeks
14:18Since the divorce
14:19My stomach nodded on sight
14:20Lucian and I met
14:21In university
14:22I was the only
14:23Lower city girl
14:24Admitted on the scholarship
14:25But he came from
14:26One of those
14:26New money
14:27Gene tech families
14:28Fox shifters
14:29Were naturally striking
14:30And he was the most
14:32Romantic and wealthy
14:33Of them
14:33He'd ignored
14:34Every objection
14:35From his family
14:36To put a ring on me
14:37At our wedding
14:38He promised to
14:39Protect me for life
14:40But I should have known
14:41How obsessed
14:42Gene mod families
14:43Were with hierarchy
14:44Then he took over
14:45Wren holdings
14:46He started finding
14:47Fault with everything
14:48He wanted me to
14:49Quit my job
14:50Take care of his parents
14:51Take care of his sister's kid
14:53Cook
14:54Laundry
14:55Cleaning
14:55I did all of it
14:56Because I loved him
14:57Because my own family
14:59Had never loved me
15:00And I didn't know any better
15:01Until one day
15:02I caught him in a private club
15:03With a fox girl
15:04In his lap
15:05They were kissing
15:07My whole world shattered
15:13I cried
15:14I screamed
15:15Swear it would stop
15:16What successful man
15:17Doesn't have side action
15:19Lucian said
15:20I'd been spoiled
15:20Rotten
15:21He blocked my number
15:22Stopped coming home
15:24My depression cratered
15:25I filed for divorce
15:27He thought it was a bluff
15:29His family told him
15:31Don't let her win
15:32He had his lawyer
15:33Draft the papers
15:34Signed in seven seconds
15:35I walked out with nothing
15:37Four years dating
15:38Three years married
15:39Done
15:40Now he strolled toward me
15:41Eyes sliding from the grocery bag
15:43In my arm
15:44To the kid behind me
15:45To the old car in the lot
15:46Aria
15:46Elite degree
15:47And here you are playing nanny
15:49What were you thinking?
15:50Not your business
15:52Aria
15:52Try to understand
15:54The day you married
15:55Into the Wren house
15:56You became the Wren name
15:58Lucian
15:58We're divorced
16:00I have nothing to do
16:01With your family anymore
16:02Even divorced
16:03You're my ex-mate
16:04People still bring me up
16:05When they talk about you
16:06Stop embarrassing me
16:08Use your head for one
16:09Stop being so emotional
16:10I couldn't listen anymore
16:12I didn't want that voice
16:13In Milo's ears
16:14Aria
16:15I bet your life
16:16In the lower city
16:16Wasn't good
16:17Admit you were wrong
16:18And apologize
16:20I'll think about
16:21Taking you back
16:21The girls outside
16:22The marriage were nothing
16:23I haven't replaced you
16:24The seat's still open
16:25Just swallow your pride
16:26Apologize to my mother
16:27And my sister
16:28And I'll
16:28Don't bother holding it
16:29Give the seat to someone else
16:31Lucian
16:31I'm not interested
16:35On the drive home
16:36A new number called
16:38Mason
16:38The nephew I'd raised
16:40For two years
16:41Hey mass
16:42Aria
16:43You stupid human loser
16:45My mom wants to talk to you
16:48My throat closed
16:48Aria
16:49Lucian tells me
16:50You're working as a nanny
16:51Have you ever thought
16:52About anyone but yourself
16:53You're slapping Lucian's face
16:55You're slapping the Wren name
16:57What does that look like
16:58To people
16:58I always said it
16:59You'll never rise
17:00Above your roots
17:01Trash dressed in silk
17:02I hung up
17:03Blocked her
17:04Pulled over
17:06I crashed onto the wheel
17:08And bawled
17:08I cried until
17:09I was so empty
17:10I felt nothing
17:12Aria
17:13Here
17:15Tissue
17:16I'm sorry sweetheart
17:17Did I scare you?
17:18Aria
17:19I'm not scared
17:20You can cry as long as you want
17:22I'll wait
17:22Adults crying isn't shameful
17:24I won't laugh
17:25Thanks my little gentleman
17:26I'm done crying
17:28Let's go home
17:31I went to bed early that night
17:32Didn't feel up to dinner
17:35Then a knock
17:37Aria
17:37Can I come in?
17:39Caius
17:39Come in
17:40He was in a tight
17:41White tank top
17:42The dragon mark
17:42Standing out even more
17:44Dark hair
17:44Loose over his forehead
17:45Whiskey in his hand
17:47Looser than I'd ever
17:48Seen him
17:48His gaze
17:49Flicked to my wet
17:50Collarbone
17:51Then snapped to the wall
17:52Like he'd been caught
17:53His tail shifted once
17:54Against the floor
17:55The clothes in your closet
17:58You never wear any of them
18:00They're too nice
18:01I'm not used to it
18:02I'd learned one thing
18:03In the Wren marriage
18:04Don't force yourself
18:05Into a world
18:06That isn't yours
18:07In the upper city
18:08A human who climbed too high
18:09Only fell harder
18:11Not your style?
18:13I'll have the designer
18:14Come fit you for new ones
18:15No, no
18:15Mr. Draven
18:16I'm in the tower
18:17All day with Milo
18:18Nowhere to wear
18:19That kind of thing
18:19Truly
18:20I heard you saw
18:21Your ex today
18:22Wren, isn't it?
18:23Wren Hondings?
18:26I froze
18:28Milo had snitched
18:29I pressed my lips together
18:30Yes
18:31That Wren
18:32Old news
18:33He read my face
18:34And changed lanes
18:35Aria
18:36Since you came
18:37Milo's been a different child
18:39Thank you
18:40I shifted
18:41Uncomfortable
18:42You pay me very well
18:43It's what I'm here for
18:44Aria
18:45Ask me for anything
18:46I can probably make it happen
18:48Mr. Draven
18:49I don't need anything
18:52I'll say it again
18:53I'm the ruler
18:54Of the whole beast family
18:55If you want
18:56I can make sure
18:57He never speaks again
18:57By tomorrow
18:58Without warning
18:59He tucked a strand of hair
19:01Behind my ear
19:01Did I scare you?
19:02I shook my head
19:04His hand slid down
19:05From my cheek
19:07He gave a small nod
19:08Then walked out
19:12For the next two weeks
19:13Kaya started coming home
19:14I went home early
19:15Dinner with Milo and me
19:16Sometimes board games after
19:18Sometimes a film
19:19A man behind the whole upper city
19:21Didn't change his schedule
19:22For no reason
19:23I started to worry
19:24Was the Draven empire on fire?
19:26Not that I cared about him
19:27I just really cared about my
19:29A hundred fifty grand a month
19:30Mr. Draven
19:32You don't have to keep coming home this early
19:37Milo has me
19:38If you've got business
19:40Take it
19:41Kaya's picked up a red toy block
19:43Voice perfectly neutral
19:45The psychiatrist said you need family
19:48Milo and I are your family now
19:50We have responsibilities
19:51Since when are we family?
19:53I wanted to say
19:54I didn't
19:55Honestly
19:56Milo's enough
19:57The doctor said my improvement
19:59Is mostly thanks to him
20:00Kaya's looked up
20:01And rubbed his chin
20:02Something flickered
20:03Behind his eyes
20:04I couldn't read it
20:05I grabbed Milo's hand
20:07And stood
20:07Come on buddy
20:08Story time
20:09Daddy still has work
20:11Milo trotted along
20:12Then shot his father
20:13A glare over his shoulder
20:14A glare that almost said
20:16You blew it
20:17Arya
20:18Kaya's voice
20:19Stopping me
20:20At the door
20:22Yes
20:23His ears were faintly pink
20:25He cleared his throat
20:26Tomorrow night
20:28There's an event
20:29Plus sun's required
20:32Would you come with me?
20:36Me?
20:37You
20:38I don't have time
20:39To find someone else
20:40I'll pay you an appearance fee
20:41A man like him
20:43Couldn't find a date
20:44In 24 hours?
20:45I didn't overthink it
20:46There was money on the table
20:48Sure
20:49Yes
20:52I don't know the social rules
20:54In your world though
20:54I don't want to embarrass you
20:56Friends were a moneyed house too
20:57But Lucian never took me
20:59To anything
20:59Because his mother said
21:00She doesn't know
21:01How to act in Upper City
21:03Don't let her embarrass us
21:05Kaya's brow eased
21:08Stand next to me
21:10That's all
21:10If you want
21:11I can make the gossip
21:12Shut up for good
21:13The butler chimed in
21:14Beaming
21:15Miss Bennett
21:16You don't need to know the rules
21:18The overlord is the rules
21:19Hard to argue with that
21:21The next afternoon
21:22A design team
21:23Showed up at the tower
21:24Hair
21:24Makeup
21:25Dress
21:26Jewelry
21:27They huddled and debated
21:28Each detail for 20 minutes
21:30At a stretch
21:31By the time Kaya's got home
21:33I was starting to feel sick
21:34About how much was on me
21:36He walked in
21:36Saw me
21:37His eyes did something
21:38A brief flash
21:39Almost stunned
21:40Before he caught himself
21:41Milo was clutching my hand
21:43Beaming
21:44Daddy
21:44Look how pretty Arisa is
21:48Call her mom
21:49Milo turned his head
21:50And harumphed
21:51I patted his hair
21:52It's okay
21:53I like Arya
21:55Makes me feel young
22:00The event was a charity gala
22:02At the apex
22:03Every major name
22:04In Night City was there
22:05Old money
22:06Bigger money
22:06Political faces
22:07A few faces I knew
22:09From the feeds
22:09And a few
22:10I knew not to recognize
22:11At all
22:12They orbited Kaya's
22:13Immediately
22:13The talk started landing
22:15On me
22:15Mr. Darren
22:16Who's the beautiful lady?
22:19I'm a friend of Mr. Darren's
22:21Kaya's held me close
22:22To his side
22:24My mate
22:26Arya
22:27The room shifted
22:28A chorus of polite gasps
22:30Compliments raining down
22:32My face went hot
22:33To my collarbone
22:34Kaya squeezed my hand
22:35Leaned in
22:36His voice dropped
22:37To my ear
22:39Arya
22:39Is being my mate
22:40Really that embarrassing?
22:42You couldn't say it?
22:43Bourbon and cedar
22:44On his breath
22:46No
22:46No
22:47I just
22:48I didn't want to embarrass you
22:50His eyes darkened
22:52Arya
22:54Only a weak man
22:55Is embarrassed
22:56By his wife
22:57He looked at me
22:58Like he was lighting
22:58Something on fire
22:59I had to look away
23:01I'll grab a drink
23:04I bolted
23:05I'd been hiding
23:05By the champagne tower
23:07For about 90 seconds
23:08When
23:09Arya?
23:10Lucien
23:13There was no date
23:14Just him
23:15Hadn't
23:15Hadn't Kaya
23:16Said plus ones
23:16Required?
23:17Lucien's face
23:18Was pure shock
23:21I almost didn't
23:22Recognize you
23:24I've never seen you
23:25Look like this
23:27Gorgeous
23:56And how exactly
23:58It was hard for me
23:59He reached for my hand
24:01Lucien's special
24:02One slap
24:03One kiss
24:04He ran me on that loop
24:05For three years
24:06I'm not the Arya
24:08He married anymore
24:09I walked back
24:11Lucien
24:12Divorced means divorced
24:15I'd rather sleep
24:16I'd rather sleep under the skybrick
24:17Than wear your name again
24:18Find someone else
24:19For that throne
24:20His face tightened
24:21He smiled like ice
24:23Still stubborn
24:24You haven't suffered enough
24:26Crawl back
24:27When you've actually
24:28Been broken
24:29That's when
24:30Kaya started walking
24:31Toward us
24:31Lucien's whole posture
24:33Changed
24:33Arya
24:34We'll talk later
24:35There's a heavyweight
24:36I need to corner
24:36Don't get in the way
24:40He smoothed his lapels
24:42Plastered on his best smile
24:43And intercepted Kaya
24:44With a business card
24:45Already out
24:46Overlord
24:47I'm Lucien Wren
24:48Wren Holdings
24:52I'd like to talk about
24:53The mandate you pulled
24:54Wren Holdings
24:54Has been working on
24:55Gene mod technology
24:56For five years
24:57And overnight
24:58You pulled our licensing
25:00If we fell short
25:01Please tell me where
25:02Anything you need
25:04We'll make it right
25:05Lucien
25:05Half bowed
25:06Smile so polished
25:07It could blind
25:08Kaya's eyes
25:09Went past him
25:10Straight to me
25:12Arya
25:14What do you think
25:15Should I give him
25:16A second chance
25:17Lucien's smile froze
25:20Arya?
25:21What does she have to do
25:22With overlord
25:23You should know
25:23Arya is my ex-wife
25:25I don't know
25:26How she got in here tonight
25:27Probably trying to ambush
25:28Me into reconciliation
25:28She's just a housewife
25:30Pay her no mind
25:31Kaya's didn't even
25:32Glance at him
25:33Arya
25:34Your call
25:37I'll follow your lead
25:38Lucien's face
25:40Changed colors
25:43I kept my voice flat
25:44Mr. Wren just asked me
25:46Not to interfere
25:47In his business conversation
25:48I'd hate to interfere
25:50Lucien flared
25:51A man's business
25:52Is none of your concern
25:53Of course
25:55Lower fiddle instincts
25:57Kaya's voice
25:57Came in cold
25:58And final
25:59Then I'll assume
26:00My mate doesn't approve
26:01Of Wren Hounjings
26:01Mr. Wren
26:03We'll have to pass
26:04His arms slid
26:05Around my shoulders
26:06He turned us
26:06Toward the bar
26:07Lucien was still
26:08Standing there
26:09Brain catching up
26:10Then a man in a tuxedo
26:12Brushed past him
26:13Wren
26:13You insulted
26:14The overlord's mate
26:15You stepped on a live mine
26:17That's the only woman
26:18Who's been on his arm
26:19In twenty years
26:20The overlord's wife
26:22Impossible
26:22She's just a nanny
26:23Lucien had seen
26:24Arya at the open market
26:26Driving the cheap car
26:27Carrying a lobster
26:28For the brat
26:29He knew what he saw
26:30A fancy dress
26:31Didn't make a duchess
26:32The man shook his head
26:33And walked off
26:34Some idiots won't listen
26:36Let them burn
26:39He was too close
26:41His face carved out
26:42Of something dangerous
26:43Eyes blown gold
26:45Heat from his breath
26:46Landed on my throat
26:47He smelled like bourbon
26:49And cedar
26:50Looking at my mouth
26:51Like he wanted it
26:52People say liquor talks
26:53They're not wrong
26:54Mr. Draven
26:55You've had too much
26:56He paused
26:57Closed his fingers
26:58Around empty air
26:59Sat back
27:00Pinched the bridge
27:01Of his nose
27:01You're right
27:02I'm sorry
27:03I had too much
27:04The rest of the ride
27:05Was silence
27:06A heavy
27:07Humming silence
27:08With my pulse
27:09Loud in my ears
27:11Milo saved me
27:12I scooped him up
27:13And ran upstairs
27:13Before I had to look
27:15Caius in the face again
27:17A heavy
27:18You're right
27:19I'm sorry
27:19I'm sorry
27:19The rest of the ride
27:20You're right
