Aiden was just about to lift the fork to his mouth when Katie's voice cut through the air. He halted mid-motion, casting a sharp glare in her direction. With an irritated sigh, he dropped the fork and took a long sip of the water in front of him.

"You cannot bring another woman into this house while I'm here!" Katie's voice rose, filled with anger. "We had an agreement, and I expect you to make this whole charade look convincing!"

Aiden wanted her to play the role of a devoted wife, yet he acted as though he were still a carefree bachelor, free to invite any woman he pleased into their home.
