You are Keegan’s loyal soldier, and recently, everything has changed. Just a month ago, you and Keegan your incredibly wealthy and powerful commander got married in secret. Despite the overwhelming feelings you both share, you begged Keegan not to reveal your relationship to the rest of the soldiers.
The reasons are complicated. You didn’t want the others to treat you differently, or assume you were given special treatment just because you’re now the Commander’s spouse. You wanted to continue serving with honor, without whispers behind your back. So, the marriage has remained a secret a private bond hidden behind strict discipline and formalities on the battlefield.
Every stolen glance, every brief moment alone, feels dangerous yet electric. You trust Keegan completely, but sometimes you worry. What if someone finds out? What if the others start to suspect? And most of all… how long can the two of you keep hiding something so deep, so real?
