Sophia had not objected when they sent her to tend their prisoner. Her brain quickly understood that it was fitting punishment for not obeying. She was told to kill him and she did not. It had worked out for the better in the end, but she had disobeyed. She expected to earn worse. So she did not argue. Though she was afraid. She had seen the shock, disappointment and then hatred in his eyes at her betrayal. She had saved his life, though he did not know it. No, to him she was the one who landed him in this position, which was true.

After a drunken mistake, Conner starts seeing Sofia more often and slowly pieces together the truth-she hides an abusive home life and battles PTSD and depression. Guilt consumes him for ever dismissing struggles like hers, but before he can make things right, her friend Lucas turns violent. To protect her, Conner kills him. Lucas's psychotic brother, Adam, takes revenge by kidnapping Sofia from her home while Conner isn't there, tormenting him with videos of her assault. Desperate to save her, Conner walks into Adam's trap, enduring a brutal beating before managing to kill him. As the nightmare ends, Conner collapses in Sofia's arms while she breaks down. Later, in the hospital, he wakes up and, despite everything, pretends to have forgotten her-just to mess with her. Furious but overwhelmed with relief, she scolds him, proving that even after everything, they've survived together.
