Summary: The Ersos escaped Orson Krennic’s clutches only to be
captured on Lah’mu a year later. Now, Galen is forced once again into
work on the Death Star, with him and his family held against their will
on Coruscant. When Jyn starts acting up and causing Galen’s work to
suffer, Krennic forces her to marry his biographer Willix – in reality
Cassian, undercover for the Alliance and there to save the Ersos. But to
do so, Cassian has to play his part, a despicable Imperial Jyn can’t
help but hate. Over time, though, she finds her hate slipping away and
changing into something else – and Cassian can’t help feeling drawn to
her as well. Still, Jyn must be careful, because in the heart of the
corrupt Empire, it is far too easy to be deceived…

Erso
just stared at him for a moment, taking the measure of him. “Take good
care of her tomorrow. Don’t you dare let anything happen to her.”
“For all my alias was on Coruscant,” Cassian said, “it was always my duty to protect her. I promise I will.”
Jyn’s
father nodded again, tightly, and he left the room. Cassian shut the
door behind him, and he tried not to think about the last words that had
left his mouth, and how eerily sincere they had sounded.
