Blair was waiting outside the office like she had been pacing the entire time I was in there. I could see how worried she was from the expression on her face alone.

I didn’t want to worry her. She was pregnant. Ethan was right about one thing. My actions definitely weren’t helping her during this pregnancy. I felt like an idiot. I needed to remember that my sister needed to be stress-free while she was pregnant. But it wasn’t entirely my fault; Roman kept giving/me a hard

time.

“How did it go?”

“Horrible.” My voice could not hide the shock and anger I felt right now. “Dad is insane.”

Her face tightened. One hand went to her stomach without her noticing. “What did he do.”

“He wants me to marry Nico. By the end of the month.”

Blair gasped, like she needed air after the bomb I’d just dropped on her. The color left her.

“Nico. As in Grayson’s brother. That Nico.”

I nodded. “I hate this so much. Why would he think this was a good solution?”

For a second she just stared. Then she grabbed my arm and pulled me down the hall into the nearest empty room and shut the door hard.

“Start again,” she said. “Slowly. Because I think I just had a pregnancy hallucination.”

Pregnancy hallucination? Was that a new thing she invented with this pregnancy? Grayson must be having a hard time.

“Nico Shaw. End of the month. Announcements this week. Dinners. Photographs. He said he was being generous because he gave you less than a week. He said since I like F1 drivers, here is one. He said Grayson is a great son-in-law so the brother will be the same.”

Blair sat down hard on the edge of a bed nobody used. “This is insane. You do not want an F1 driver. You want a basketball player.”

“I told him I would not do it.”

“And.”

“He said the wedding is happening anyway.”

We both freaked out at the same level for a full minute. Pacing. The particular Monroe panic of being moved like a chess piece on a board.

“End of the month,” Blair repeated, like saying it again might make it not true. “That is not a wedding. That is a deadline. That is me all over again except he gave you extra days so he can call himself kind.”

“You would be my sister and my sister-in-law,” she added, horrified and almost laughing. “That is crazy. Nico would be your husband. I would have to sit at Christmas and watch you pass gravy to the man who

rrently uses our kitchen like a snack bar. I do not see the two of you being a couple.”

“I do not want Christmas with Nico. I want-” I stopped.

Blair’s eyes softened. Panic still under them. “Roman.”
