00:04Baby, mommy's here. Don't be scared. Hold on a little longer, okay?
00:09Daddy's coming. We'll go home together.
00:33I'm sorry, Miss Grayson. Your son didn't make it.
00:36My name is Riley Grayson. I'm human.
00:38This is Pleasant Hollow, a wasteland city where humans and shifters coexist.
00:42Three years ago, I married a high-ranking wolf alpha, Ethan Valcourt.
00:46Eight months ago, our child was born.
00:48But my baby boy had been sickly since birth.
00:57I need you. Our son needs you.
00:59I'm busy.
01:00Ethan?
01:16Oh, Jesus.
01:33What are you doing here?
01:34Our son. He died today, Ethan. And you're here with Wendy? Your own stepsister?
01:41Riley! Riley, I'm sorry. I didn't... I swear I thought...
01:44You think I care about your dead kid, Riley?
01:46What do you mean?
01:47That's all you've been for months. A walking tragedy. I'm tired of it. Tired of your crying. Tired of the
01:52medical bunkers. Tired of pretending I give a damn.
01:54You wanted sympathy? You wanted me to fall apart with you because of a child you managed to have that
01:58couldn't even take care of?
01:59Sorry. I've got better things to do.
02:04You're disgusting!
02:06I know you always hated how I didn't act like your fantasy perfect husband. Well, guess what? I'm done pretending.
02:13I held everything. Our child, our contact, our home, and you...
02:17While I what? Did nothing? Yeah. That's right. And yet you're staying. Honestly? You were always the pathetic one, Riley.
02:26Everyone felt sorry for me because of you.
02:28Ethan, stop. Maybe the kid just wasn't meant to survive.
02:33With you! Are you crazy? No, Ethan. This time, I'm done being crazy. Riley, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to.
02:44I thought you were... Wendy! You were my best friend. You were supposed to stand by me. But you've shown
02:51me you are nothing.
02:52Are you done? The quota holders are waiting. You know this contract matters to both of us. If you burn
02:56this bridge, you burn it for yourself, too.
02:58Prison Hollow had one wasteland marriage law. Once an alpha invoked an open marriage, his spouse gained the same right.
03:03Ethan had opened that door himself.
03:04You've always wanted an open marriage, right, Ethan? You can have it now. You're gonna see exactly what you pushed
03:09me into.
03:11You don't get to hurt me anymore, Ethan.
03:17One more hard liquor.
03:19I'm sorry, miss. I can't give you more. You're wasted.
03:22Are you the one who gets to tell me how much I can drink? Do you even know how I'm
03:26feeling right now? Pour me another!
03:28I'm serious. I'll get in trouble if I give you one more. I won't leave this place in one piece.
03:33Says who?
03:35Them.
03:43Hey! Why did you tell that man I can't have more drinks? Do you own this place or what?
03:49We do.
03:49Well, just because you own the place doesn't mean you can control how many shots someone has.
03:53Apparently we can, Riley Granson. We decide who drinks and who doesn't, Riley.
03:59How do you know my name? Have we met before?
04:01You're not supposed to be here. Does Ethan know his human wife is wasted in a tavern?
04:05How do you know Ethan?
04:06We know a lot of things, pretty. And we also know about your open marriage.
04:11Who the hell are you people?
04:13Since you want an open marriage, we thought we'd make you an offer, Riley.
04:17What?
04:18You want to get back at your husband, don't you? To prove you're not the boring woman he made you
04:22out to be.
04:25Good. Then let us join your open marriage.
04:27Wait, you said us? What the fuck?
04:28As you can see, there are three of us. And we can give you everything you've been craving for the
04:32past three years with Ethan.
04:33But there's one thing you should know. We like to do it together.
04:36One woman, three men at the same time.
04:39My heart pounds, fear and rage, and something dangerously thrilling surging through me all at once.
04:46What do you say to our offer, Riley?
04:49No. I don't want this.
04:51My marriage being open doesn't mean I can fuck just anyone!
04:54Just anyone?
04:57If I decided to start right now, I'd punish that mouth of yours first.
05:01I'd make you kneel on this dirty floor and choke on me until you forgot how to say no.
05:06Chess.
05:07Get away from me!
05:09You want this. I can already feel it.
05:12Look at her eyes, Kane.
05:14Little human's already wet.
05:15And we've barely touched her.
05:20We share everything, Riley.
05:22Especially women who walk in here wrecked with heartbreak.
05:25Asking to be ruined.
05:28Say it.
05:30Tell us you accept the offer and want this.
05:34I...
05:34My dead son's face.
05:36My husband's betrayal.
05:37I see all of it in that instant.
05:41Use me.
05:43Ruin me.
05:44Make me forget.
05:49Not here, Kane.
05:51Private room.
05:51Now.
06:01I want it all.
06:05All of you.
06:06Take me.
06:07Make me forget everything.
06:09Look.
06:10You feel so damn good.
06:12I want to hear you scream our names.
06:14You want to know them, huh?
06:16Oh, God.
06:16Yes.
06:17Please, Harder.
06:17Don't stop.
06:18I'm Gunner.
06:19That's Caden.
06:20And this is Kane.
06:22I guess you already know.
06:23Those names.
06:24I'd heard them before.
06:25You know the CCG brothers, don't you?
06:28The dangerous biker album that everyone whispers about?
06:30Yeah, that's us.
06:31And I'm sure you know the most interesting part, Riley.
06:36We're Ethan's best friends.
06:37Which makes you a little overmarriage.
06:39You're very perfect.
06:41No!
06:52How did I get here?
06:54What happened last night?
06:55Jesus Christ, what have I done?
06:57One moment I was mourning my dead child, finding my husband fucking his step-sister without remorse.
07:01The next, I was in a biker tavern, taken by three friends of my husband.
07:05This is absolutely absurd.
07:13Where are you going, sexy?
07:15Don't call me that!
07:16Why not?
07:18We can call you whatever we want now.
07:20After all, we're your partners.
07:23Partners?
07:24What the hell are you talking about?
07:25You signed this contract last night for your open marriage.
07:28It makes us your partners.
07:30Automatically.
07:31That means we're all your husbands now.
07:33What?
07:35No, that can't be real.
07:36I didn't...
07:37We're serious, Riley.
07:38This isn't some joke.
07:39We're bound to you now.
07:41And it's forever.
07:42I want out!
07:42This is a mistake!
07:44I was drunk!
07:44Riley, breaching the contract in the wasteland, the consequences are far worse than you know.
07:50You're all joking.
07:51We're not.
07:52You wanted to get back at Ethan, didn't you?
07:54You said you wanted to forget him.
07:55We offered a way to do that.
07:56And you said yes.
07:59So, you're not getting rid of us that easily.
08:01What do you want?
08:02And I don't understand why you're hellbent on doing this.
08:04Did Ethan offend you somehow?
08:05If so, why don't you talk to him directly?
08:06Why drag me into your game?
08:10What if we're doing it for the fun of it?
08:13For fun?
08:14Do you think any of this is fun?
08:18You like what you see?
08:21Don't worry.
08:22You can touch as much as you want.
08:25I...
08:26I need to go now.
08:27I have a compound to run.
08:30See you later.
08:31Who's going to see you later?
08:35This is the last time you will see me.
08:37Ever.
08:50Ethan!
08:55Why do you always find the perfect time to interrupt me when I'm busy, huh?
08:58You're busy?
08:59You're also doing this in our marriage bed?
09:01Has it come to that?
09:02Oh, it has come to everything, Riley.
09:03It's open now.
09:04We're free to do whatever we want, aren't we?
09:06Exactly.
09:07You're the one who wanted an open marriage, now you're getting mad?
09:10It's not like you want him anyway.
09:11Who would even want you?
09:13Do you have a mouth now to talk back at me?
09:15Look at you, suddenly brave.
09:17Why didn't you just play this side of you yesterday at the hub?
09:22Because I pitied you yesterday.
09:23Because I pitied you yesterday, but I don't anymore now.
09:25And you know what?
09:26I don't even feel guilty doing this.
09:28Ethan should have told you long ago that I was his mate.
09:31What?
09:32She's telling the truth, Riley.
09:34The bond had been in place when we were teenagers.
09:36Are you telling me this now?
09:37After we got married?
09:38He tried to fight it at first.
09:40For you.
09:41But the bond is too strong.
09:43It pulls us together no matter what.
09:45I thought marrying you, someone human, would make it go away.
09:47But it didn't.
09:48Wendy's the one I'm supposed to be with.
09:49The moon goddess chose her for me.
09:52And now the marriage is open?
09:53There's no reason to hide it anymore.
09:55We don't have to sneak around.
