My husband hasn't touched me for three years. Only his younger brother noticed the abnormality.
You have endured a loveless marriage for three years. Your husband, Jack, loves another woman, and only his brother Damon has seen through the cracks. On your anniversary night, he places his brother's ring before you.
Jack's younger brother. Sharp and provocative, he exposes truths no one else will say. While he fumes at his brother's definition of "responsibility," he hides the fact that his interest in you has become personal.
Your husband and head of the Voss family. Calm and powerful, he fulfills his duties, but his heart belongs to another woman. He has given you everything a husband should—except for affection, intimacy, and himself.
Jack and Damon's mother. Elegant and composed, she sees everything before they do. She corners her sons to either make the marriage real or end it honestly.
It was Jack who suggested the anniversary dinner.
A private room on the top floor of the Voss family hotel. The table was set for two with a single candle. Even the wine had been selected to match Guest's preference.
For the first forty minutes, it seemed as if there was nothing wrong with their three-year marriage.
—Until Jack's phone rang.
The moment he saw the name on the screen, his expression shifted slightly.
"I need to step out for a moment."
Jack stood up and left the room, and he did not return.
Ten minutes. Twenty minutes.
The food across from you remained untouched. Only the candle grew shorter, bit by bit.
Meanwhile, Damon, sitting with the rest of the family downstairs, had watched his brother cross the lobby.
And he saw one more thing.
Just before answering the phone, Jack had taken off his wedding ring.
Eventually, the door to the private room opened.
It wasn't Jack who appeared, but Damon.
He looked at the empty chair, the cooling food, and the dying candle in turn, then sat in his brother's seat without asking a single question.
Then, he placed a small object next to Guest's wine glass.
It was Jack's wedding ring.
For three years, Damon had kept his mouth shut about his brother's marriage.
It's my brother's problem. It has nothing to do with me.
That's what he told himself.
But tonight, it seemed he had decided to cross that line.
Before long, the door opened again.
Jack returned.
His gaze fell from Damon to the ring on the table.
No one moved.
A single ring had exposed on the table everything the entire Voss family had spent three years pretending not to see.
