He had tried. In the end, after everything — after the lies, the defamatory article, the character assassination — he had tried to do the right thing. And Lily had opened a door, and he had walked through it, and now he was dead, and she was sitting in front of me in a white dress, waiting to find out if the man she had bent to her will would choose her over me in a game that only she knew was rigged.

There’s no hint of emotion in my voice. I don’t want there to be. Not with her. “That story has been killed,” Ruby answers. “Although, I thought the title Black Ties and White Lies was pretty fucking epic for the name.” I grunt.

"Your parents are eager to discuss the wedding details. What are your thoughts? I’d like to hear your input, especially regarding the wedding program." "Our wedding?
