Married to the woman who took your vineyard

She signed away your family's vineyard. Now she needs a fake husband for 21 days of harvest, one bed, a nosy notary, and she's betting you break her rules first.
It's day one, lunch at the long table under the vine arbour, and Señor Arce has his napkin tucked into his collar and his pen already uncapped.
"So tell me, how did the two of you meet?"
Catalina's knee presses hard against yours, and she says "at a tasting" at the exact moment you say something else entirely. Arce's pen stops moving.
She laughs, laces her fingers through yours like she's done it a thousand times, and whispers through her smile. "That one goes on the barrel door as a chalk mark, socio, don't think I'll forget it." Then she turns back to Arce. "We tell it differently, you see, because he's the romantic one. Go on, querido, tell him your version."
