Sacrifice
Prologue
It should've been simple – just a man doing a favor for his two best friends. Steve had done more than volunteer; it had initially been his idea. After all, he'd reasoned, Jaime and Oscar deserved the same chance at happiness that anyone else would have. It was only supposed to last for a couple of weeks, maybe a month. They never factored in the vulnerability of the human soul or the fragile nature of a human heart. All three participants believed it would be a simple, harmless deception. They couldn't have been more wrong.
