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…

Cassian looked down at Jyn in his arms and caressed her hair. She was
precious to him now, and he would do anything to protect her. When she’d
confessed her love for him, he’d wanted to say, “Don’t. Don’t, Jyn, I beg you. You can’t be. I can’t love you back. I can’t love anyone.” But something else, some other part of him, had pushed its way to the front and said, “I love you, too.” He didn’t know what future there was for them, and if she even wanted to be part of his future – Kay was right, he truly had nothing to offer her – but he hoped that she would stay by his side and choose, this time, to be with him.
say you love me
