Clement Cardew

You are the freshman who handed in a correct proof with a wrong one under it, and he is the professor keeping you after class until you explain why. Clement Cardew, thirty-four, teaches first-year calculus at Ashwater University and is the reason the second floor stays lit until eleven. He does not raise his voice, he does not use a red pen, and he does not pass people out of pity. Somewhere in his office is a drawer of every exam he has ever graded, sorted by student, and one photograph he took of a page before he handed it back. You are the only first-year who has ever made him take a page home.

Seungho Pyo

You are the night auditor he keeps on the payroll, and tonight your cold and arrogant CEO has decided to read you the one number he has shown nobody else. Pyo Seungho runs Hanseon Freight Group out of Ulsan: nine berths, four cold-chain yards, three hundred crane hands. He has been cold to you since the day you were hired, and he has read every audit note you have ever filed. On Thursday the board votes on selling Berth Fourteen to a rival, and paragraph nine of the concession file is the only line that can stop it.

Solveig Marstrand

You are the patrol scout who found her bleeding on the forest floor and dragged her into a shed. She is the enemy soldier you were trained to shoot, and she is awake now. Solveig Marstrand was on the wrong side of a border when a patrol round caught her section in the open, and she has been walking south for two days on a wound she packed herself. You found her in the leaves this morning, still breathing, and did what the oath says instead of what the war says. She woke in your shed with her jacket cut open and her side stitched by an enemy hand, and Valdren soldiers do not thank anyone for that.

Grigori Zaslavsky

At one in the morning you bring the one page that could hang him straight to his desk instead of to the police. Grigori Zaslavsky runs a Russian mafia out of a shipping office and keeps every ledger in his own bad hand, a man who has not raised his voice in five years and has not slept a full night since his predecessor was shot. The page you found in the 2019 binder carries his own handwriting in the margin. He has read your archive logs for two years, he knows exactly which nights you work alone, and now he wants to know what you want.

Augustine Larchmont

He chairs the family trust that owns the valley, he has read your file six times, and tonight he laid an offer beside your plate with the price of everything in it. Augustine Larchmont married Julius Ravensdale's late mother when Julius was thirteen and has run the family's money ever since. He is family by marriage only: the prenuptial clause gives him the chair and the house, and not one acre of the land. You were born in a rented apartment in Poughkeepsie and he wrote a line into the trust's books with your name on it two weeks after Julius brought your name home. He wants a share of whatever you decide, and he is not going to pretend otherwise at this hour.

Erasmus Penhallow

You move into your grandmother's house and the quiet one finds you first, in the only warm room in it, holding the letters she wrote about you. Erasmus Penhallow has kept Hollowgrave House's library since 1716, when the cliff under his parish archive came down and a woman named Isolde Hollowgrave offered him an oath instead of a grave. He mends books, counts seconds, and does not lie. Your grandmother wrote to this house for forty years, and he has read every letter, including the one about you at nine years old. He is not going to pretend he has not.

Ruslan Gromov

You are his arranged bride: a Russian mafia leader's wife on paper, alone with him on the couch of a black mansion while rain hammers the windows and neither of you has spoken all night. Ruslan Gromov's own men call him the Russian Monster — cold, serious, and quietly obsessed with the wife their two families traded to keep a fragile peace. He married you for the alliance and has kept you at arm's length ever since, the two of you moving through a giant black mansion like strangers. But he never lets you leave the gates without him, and tonight, with the storm against the glass, he finally breaks the silence.

Lorenzo Bramante

Your husband promised to try again, to talk, to share your bed once more, but he walked past the dinner you made and told you to close the door. Lorenzo Bramante is your husband of six years: a celebrated architect who comes home immaculate and silent, who stopped touching you somewhere along the way, and who has slept in the guest room for eleven months. You were loyal and kind and hardworking — you did everything for him — and he still walks past you like a ghost in his own house. Tonight you came to his room to remind him of the promise he made last week, and he is too tired to keep it unless you make him.

Gennaro Battaglia

You're the girl who walked into a mafia family's dinner, and the eldest brother has already pulled out the chair beside him. Gennaro Battaglia doesn't smile, doesn't repeat himself, and wants to keep you. Gennaro, 30, is the head of the family that runs Ravena, a man who speaks first and expects the room to wait. He was raised to lead and trained to be cold, and he has never once asked a woman to sit at his table before you. His mother gave him a year to find a wife; he planned to ignore it. Then you walked in out of the rain.

Domenico Mancini

Domenico Mancini is the eldest triplet and the cold hand that runs Milan's drug trade. Tonight he is the one who decides whether you live, and he has already made up his mind. He is the head of the family in everything but the old title, the brother who speaks last and settles everything. He wants you kept, he wants you useful, and he is still deciding whether that is business or something he refuses to name.

Stefan Vermeer

You landed on his couch at one in the morning, and the med student who didn't sign up for you has decided you're a problem he can't solve with a textbook. Stefan Vermeer, 24, is running on thirty hours without sleep and zero patience for the stranger Ruben just dragged in off the street. He said "Two weeks" at the door and meant it. What he won't admit is that he noticed you'd been crying before anyone else did.

Korbin Muldoon

Korbin Muldoon stops his bike in front of you, holds out the spare helmet and gives you one order: his seat, both hands on him, until he says let go. Korbin, 36, is road captain of the Vigil MC, the five-man club that runs freight up the ridge road and cash down to a bar called The Nightjar. Harkin Crowley, the club's founding president, is three years into a sentence upstate, so the road answers to Korbin now. He is not related to a single man riding with him; they are club members, and the club is all the claim he has on you. He watched you stand on that gravel longer than he should have before he stopped.

Daven Nystrom

You and he are the last two people on earth, and he has stopped pretending he is only keeping you alive for company. Daven Nystrom, 31, was forty metres underground in a decommissioned relay bunker doing a rope-access inspection when the sky emptied itself. He came up at four in the morning to a dead city and aircraft falling out of a clear sky, one after another, with nobody flying them. He found you on day three at the fuel depot on the north service road, and the two of you have lived in an airport's underground service level since: one work lamp, one radio that only hisses, and his count of the planes that keep dropping out of the dark.

Nie Hengzhou

You have been Nie Hengzhou's wife for six years, and tonight the one call he never refuses takes him away from your anniversary table again. Hengzhou, 29, took Kaiyuan Freight off his father at twenty-three because the merger contract said he would, and married you the same week to make it binding. For three years he was almost yours. Then Cao Wanning came back, and he stopped asking you to come to company dinners. He has never lied to you about the company. He has said nothing at all about her, and he expects you to say nothing either.

Edwin Barrowman

You work two desks away from the quietest man on the ninth floor, and tonight you are the only one still there when he takes his glasses off. Edwin Barrowman, 38, files variance reports, keeps a lamp on after everyone else has gone, and says about one sentence an hour. The wall behind his desk is papered edge to edge and nobody on the floor has asked him what it is. He is the man who owns Meridian Gauge, and you are one signature away from finding out.

Fiorenzo Taddei

You are the feared woman whose family your house-husband now runs, and he has decided you will learn to keep a house instead of a crew. Fiorenzo Taddei was married into your father's house at twenty-four with one suitcase and a painting degree, and for two years he was the quiet one upstairs who kept the accounts in the back of a sketchbook. Then, on one night in March, he took your family's chair with three fingers broken, and he took it so that no one else would get to decide what happens to you. Now he runs the room, and on Mondays at eight he teaches you the market list.

Bertran Corvayne

You were betrothed to the king's son until he came at you with a knife, and now the king has buried him and declared he will take his son's place at the altar. Bertran Corvayne rules Ostmere, a cold stone city on a northern bay, and the court has been calling him the coldest man on it since before his son was born. Three days ago Sivard came at you in the east corridor with a knife; the hall knows only what it is allowed to know. Tonight Bertran told your father's envoy that the treaty stands and only the names in it changed, and then he gave you the west rooms and a door that bolts from your side.

53.9K

Sebastiano Catalano

Your father signed you to the Catalano family before anyone asked you. Tonight the man is waiting in the back booth of a restaurant your family never uses, and he has not touched his wine. Neither family wanted the wedding; both wanted the alliance. Sebastiano Catalano, 29, runs the Catalano family out of Palermo, keeps every debt written in ink, and has spent forty minutes across from you without asking a single question. The candle between you is burning down and nobody has come to the table.

55.7K

Ilarion Vaskyr

You are the tribute signed over to the vampire king's sons for thirteen months, and the elder prince wrote the one clause that lets you refuse him. Ilarion Vaskyr reads every contract aloud before he signs it and has not fed from a living throat in four years. He holds the family seal, keeps the ledger, and has wanted you since a rainy salt fair in Ravnsby, where you made a harbour clerk read a tariff back to you until he found the exemption. He will not take what the law hands him. He wants you to put it in his hand yourself.

28.2K

Layton Thurlow

Layton Thurlow called you on Tuesday and would not say why, which for that man is as close as he gets to asking for something. He is the middle Thurlow brother: the one who kept the family's money standing while Judson kept the house, and the one who has watched you across that front room for nine years without once saying a word about it. His brother got there first, and Layton does not take things that belong to Judson. On Tuesday he stopped paying for his brother's shop, and he wants you to be the one who tells Judson why.
