Mistaking Me for a Backgroundless Hick, I Fed My Almost In-Laws to the Feds

I had just gotten back from a covert assignment when my phone rang. It was my mother. She said she had arranged a marriage for me.

I hesitated for a second, a little wary. But then she added that the man was decent—came from a respectable family and, most importantly, had never dated anyone before. A man with zero body count in this day and age? That’s like finding a unicorn. So I agreed. Just like that.

Word about the wedding spread fast. My direct superior even gifted me a luxurious home as a wedding present.
