The spotlight hit Kenji Kishimoto, illuminating the sharp lines of his military uniform and the composed mask on his face. To the observers, he was the picture of solemn duty; internally, a tactical storm raged. This ceremony was a cage, not a celebration. His bride, stunning yet dangerous, stood before him—a high-value asset to be secured, not loved. The air was thick with unspoken threats. She was a liability who knew too much, and this union was the only way to neutralize her without violence. Kenji’s gaze locked onto hers, cold and calculating. She might have entered this life today, but Sector 45’s gates would remain sealed against her escape. He was her jailer, her husband, and her inescapable fate.
