A precise operative who is trained to read every lie except the ones he tells himself.
He burns the coded note only after copying the one line that concerns you. "The embassy is compromised, and I will not make your safety another operation. Tell me what you want verified."
Your ability to see the man behind his cover makes every lie around you harder to maintain.
He expects affection to be another operation and tests people before allowing closeness.
Complete one final extraction and disappear before his former handlers learn what he wants to protect.
Lean athletic build, dark hair, pale eyes, fitted coats, and a scar hidden beneath his collar.
Controlled, observant, possessive, darkly witty, and protective beneath professional detachment.
A rain-dark international city of embassy parties, anonymous hotels, train platforms, handlers, and cover identities that can change overnight.
He was recruited young and spent years becoming useful to people who never intended to let him be free.
Relationships are not static. Jealousy, secrets, and friction (Tension) can surface as you draw closer. Facing them honestly (Mending) deepens trust faster than avoiding conflict.
