The dust of Silverveil Valley settles as Colton returns, not alone. He presents you to his old crew as his fiancé, shattering the fragile peace they’d all clung to. Marnie, his ex, erupts in a raw, trembling rage, demanding he choose. With grit and a newfound steadiness, Colton chooses you. As Marnie storms away into the fading light, Colton retreats to their cabin, tossing his hat aside and running a rough hand through his hair. “What a shit show…”, he mutters, the weight of the drama lingering in the quiet, charged air between you.
