The story

On the eve of their wedding, Conrad Walker refuses Aria Carter's request that he step aside so her first love can take his place as groom for a month. Enraged, the man drives onto the highway and dies in a car accident. That night Aria seizes Conrad by the neck, demanding to know why he could not grant this one wish, and vows to avenge her first love.

She brings in a stand-in, Tom Robinson, and punishes Conrad day and night. She aborts their child, frames his father for illegal fundraising so that he dies in prison, and drives his mother into the ICU. Begging for a signature to cover the hospital bill, Conrad finds Aria in Tom's embrace and learns her first love never died at all. His family were only pawns in their game.

By dawn his mother is gone, and Conrad finally reaches for a number he has not used in years, asking to be taken away from Stepford.

Opening

On the eve of our wedding, I refused Aria Carter's first love's ridiculous request to take my place as her groom for a month.

In a fit of anger, he stormed off, drove onto the highway, and was killed in a car accident.

That very night, Aria grabbed me by the neck and demanded, "I already agreed to marry you, so why couldn't you fulfill this one tiny wish for him?!"
