Master slid a blank contract across the table. At the top, it read: Custody of the Self. Term: Indefinite.

Because Lena had killed herself last Tuesday. Because the note mentioned "the woman who stole my voice." Because Kylie had stood over the casket in a black wig and sunglasses, anonymous as a ghost, and felt something she’d outsourced for years: shame .

"I can’t give Lena her life back."

"Why now, Kylie?"

"No. But you can give her name back. In a press statement. With the royalties reassigned to her estate. And then you walk away from the persona of Kylie Quinn forever."

"The confession is only the first step," he said. "You’ve named the theft. Now you have to return what you stole."

"All of it." Her voice cracked. "The songwriting credits. The ‘spontaneous creative breakthrough’ in Ibiza. I didn’t write those lyrics. I bought them from a ghostwriter named Lena. And when she asked for more money, I had my lawyer threaten her with an NDA so broad she couldn’t even tell her therapist."

She expected disgust. Instead, Master reached across the table and turned her clenched fist over, gently, until her palm faced up. He didn’t hold it. He just exposed it.
