"But this is temporary. As soon as we get what we need, or as soon as he screws us over—I’m done. We’re done pretending we’re anything but enemies. I’ll smile for the cameras if I must, but that’s it."

"That’s more than enough. Thank you."
He gave me one last look, half warning, half something softer that I couldn’t quite identify...then released my sleeve. We stepped back into the room in silence, our footsteps falling back into sync, each one taking us farther from the safety of ignorance and closer to something irreversible.
