"Once the game is finished, the king and the pawn go into the same box."
  
  Nothing was making any sense. How did she get here? What had changed? Why were they all so cold?
  
  A sort of "what if" scenario I came up with one day: what it would be like if the Cortana we all know and love from Halo 1-4 suddenly "returned" post-Halo 5, having to face a universe corrupted by, seemingly, her own hands?
  
  Rated M for Mature

66 parts Complete Mature

Henley agrees to pretend to date millionaire Bennett Calloway for a fee, falling in love as she wonders - how is he involved in her brother's false conviction? ****** Henley Linden's brother is in jail for a crime he didn't commit, and she'll take any job to raise the money needed to free him. Soon, she's agreed to pretend to date millionaire Bennett Calloway for ten thousand dollars, so his mother will ease up the pressure on him to find a wife. But once Henley is enmeshed in Bennett's world, he falls for her, and she starts to have feelings for him as well. Despite her romance with Bennett, as she grows closer to the Calloways, Henley realizes they are somehow involved in her brother's conviction. Journeying deeper into a world of wealth and conspiracies, Henley is forced to rely on Bennett, though doing so could cost her everything. [[word count: 200,000-250,000 words]]
