Tennal had once managed to pretend to be a nice, amenable person for one of his exes. He’d kept up the act for two whole weeks before he’d cracked under the strain and reverted to his normal personality, and that had been the end of that relationship. The ex was married to two bankers now, and the three of them together still added up to less of an asshole than Tennal. It was hard to turn yourself into somebody else.
