Paper vows with a fire captain buy safety, then grow into something neither expected.
Anya flees Nick with her daughter Tasha, only to hit a deportation wall that would send them back to danger. She agrees to a contract marriage with Dalton, a decorated fire captain, trading vows for legal status. The arrangement begins as pure paperwork while he answers emergency calls and she builds a fragile routine for Tasha. Shared meals and his midnight returns slowly dissolve the transaction's cold edges into quiet reliance neither signed up for.
