    Summary

    "Knock knock," Eva Stratt walks into the middleschool classroom with a folder in her hand. She has taken to greeting nearly every stranger she meets the same way, but only once.
    The man sprawled at his desk splutters as he attempts to sit up. "What— who's there?"

    Or, Eva Stratt knows her soulmate's first and last words to her. Ryland Grace doesn’t notice until it’s too late.

    Summary

    (Sequel to Ruin My Life)

    Papers are contracts. Stratt signs hundreds every day. Their marriage certificate was not special in that regard; just a document to legally bind them together, as Ryland had wanted.

    It wasn't what he wanted though. Or, it wasn't all of it. With every day that passed that Stratt seemed no more inclined to let him past her walls than before, he came to the sinking realization that she had little intention of actually being married.


    Here are some things that make being married to Eva Stratt exceedingly difficult:

    • She wants for the world, but not herself; trying to do nice things for her is like pulling teeth
    • She trusts Dr. Grace with the mission, but she does not trust Ryland with her heart
    • And this really should not hurt so much, because it's Stratt, but— she cares about him the way she cares about a coworker; or the way she cares about every human in the damn universe. She does not care about Ryland. Attraction does not equal affection. And with every day she does not acknowledge their marriage, it becomes clearer that towards Ryland, she feels neither.

    Summary

    Stratt is right. He doesn't have the courage to follow her to prison, not at the cost of his career, or his life.

    He has no political or judicial sway; no way to alleviate the charges that may face her.

    But still, he believes.

    His whole life is just believing in near-impossible things now; believing in the Hail Mary, and believing in this:

    We will meet again somewhere.

    Summary

    Professor Eva Stratt was the head of the History department. She was fearsome, intimidating, and in Grace’s opinion, she was also hot as fuck.

    She also had a thing for embarrassing him in front of the entire class, which had the unfortunate side effect of giving him a hard-on at 9:45 every Tuesday.

    He’d just clicked “submit” on the last assignment for this class. While he was glad the suffering was over, a part of him he wouldn’t read too much into was disappointed this was the last he'd see of Professor Stratt.

    That was until she’d called him into her office over a plagiarism concern.

    Office hours were never like this in the syllabus.
