> Keiko's inner thoughts were enough to make me pound my head against the wall, as she chastised herself for feeling bad because Sean slept with her (again) and then went to another woman. Not that she shouldn't chastise herself for the first part, but her defense of him was approaching the defense of an abusive spouse.

Not necessarily. The part that's important is that Keiko doesn't want to be one of those angry, jealous types. Yet she feels angry and jealous, so she's fighting her own feelings. Fortunately she'll have a way out of that mess.
> On the other hand, now that she's in charge of his security system, she can install some stunnulators to exact revenge for her. Or isn't it going to be that kind of system?

Just a normal security system, unfortunately. If you noticed, though, this is Keiko's first step toward putting up a wall between herself and Sean. Literally and figuratively. Another is her detective career, which is taking her away from him most days.
> Either way, nice to see you're still writing this one.

I am, and after the next chapter there's another change in direction - initiated by Keiko herself.
