Mia crossed her arms and said, “Babe, you never keep your promises. You always go back on your word."

Andre glanced at his wife, realizing she'd lured him right into her trap. Every time he got riled up and she made him say, "I love you too," it was impossible to stay mad.

"Why don't you spell out what you mean?" he asked.

Mia pouted, stubborn as ever. "There's nothing to explain. When you signed up for that competition, did you ask your wife first? No? So why should I have to get your blessing? Marriage is supposed to be about respect, you know."

Andre replied, "I didn't have a wife then."

"Well, you do now."

Andre let out a long sigh. "That's why I haven't been back to The Silent Ring."

Mia raised an eyebrow. "Please. You've got a Black Pass now. No wonder you don't need to show up."

He tried to keep his tone level. "Anyone with a Black Pass still gets missions. But for our family? I haven't taken a single one."

Mia's eyes sparkled with curiosity. "So why do you get to run wild at The Silent Ring anyway?"

Andre shot her a look. "We're talking about you, not me."
