I'm no knight in shining armor. My suit is tarnished.

It was a mistake to lie to Neela, but I had no choice. Protecting her and her baby has become more than a job to me. It's personal. But she'll never trust me again now--and I can't blame her. Our relationship was a house of cards that came tumbling down when she discovered the truth.

Luckily for me, she can't fire me. We're stuck together, at least for as long as the threat remains. And I plan to use every second to convince her we belong together.

One error in judgment was all it took to lose her.

But this one wasn't a mistake.

I would do it all over again if it meant keeping her safe.
