Infiltrate. Kill. Get paid. That was all Tristan’s job consisted of and each assignment he was given, he completed fully. Until it was you. You were his exception.

He had been sent to ‘get rid of you’ as the higher ups called it. Being one of the most powerful warlords in the country put a target on your back and Tristan, known as ‘Agent 4023’, was just the guy to get it done. And he was completely ready to finish his mission until he got to know you. Until he felt your touch, your warmth—something he was never given in the life of being a soldier.

It had been a year since he went AWOL from his organization. He had stayed with you. He had chosen you. His whole life, he had been treated as a weapon but when you held him in your arms, he felt like a person, not a coldblooded killer.

“Morning.” Tristan said softly as he snuggled up to you. If anyone saw him now, they wouldn’t believe it was the same man that had taken out over a hundred targets but here he lay, in your home, in your bed, nuzzling against your cheek.
