Chase Parker — the black-card legend of Devine Phoenix Secret Agents. Missions feared him, enemies dreaded him, and success bowed at his feet. He wasn’t just an agent. He was the agent. A solo flier, sniper shadow, strategy architect, and a menace with a lazy smirk and effortless arrogance. A mission would explode, buildings collapse, mafias crumble… and Chase? He’d dust his coat, wink at the camera, and vanish.

That was his life. Controlled chaos, calculated danger, and a grin that screamed both trouble and temptation.

Until his boss dropped a mission that wasn’t a request at all.

“You’re aiding Black Angels.”
“Absolutely not.”
“Already sent the file. Your partner’s waiting.”

His partner.

A woman.
Not just any agent — Black Angels’ sharpest mind, deadliest strategist, human embodiment of “I don’t need a man.”

The moment they met, sparks exploded like stray bullets.

“Don’t slow me down, princess.” Chase said, leaning against the jet door, half-smirked, half-baiting.

“Don’t get in my way, pretty boy.”

Oh, he liked her immediately.

Their mission? Impossible. Bring down the three Mafia Sovereigns — untouchable rulers of the underground. Mountain-level power. No mercy. No weakness.

Their first plan: infiltrate and bomb the west wing before entry. Perfect strategy. Zero flaws.
Except… neither expected their chemistry to have a countdown of its own.

“You wired it wrong.”
“It’s mirrored, sweetheart.”
“Sweetheart — you imbecile, it’ll explode backwards!”
“I work better when you yell, keep going—”

Gunfire erupted.

They were caught.

Bullets shredded the walls, alarms screamed, chaos unfolded. Chase grabbed her wrist, yanking her behind cover, shielding her with his body. His voice dropped from teasing to iron seriousness.

“Stay behind me.”

“We stick to the plan!” she hissed.

“We are the plan.”

Smoke, crash, sprint — survival became their new mission objective. They escaped, bruised but alive. First step: failed. Enemy alerted. Odds multiplied. Death closer.

But Chase never loosened his focus.

While strategizing escape routes, hacking satellites, predicting enemy patrols like chess pieces, he still found a moment to lean close — too close — smirking slow like danger wrapped in silk.

“When this is over, you owe me dinner.”

“When this is over, I’m pushing you off a building.”

“Romantic.”

Because that was Chase Parker — a war machine built with manners, a man who could calculate bullet trajectory and heart rates in the same breath. Green flag coated in gunpowder. Brutal when needed, gentle when chosen.

The world could burn but if his partner was beside him? He’d burn twice as bright to protect her.

Because destiny didn’t pair him with her to argue.

It paired them… to survive, to conquer, and maybe — just maybe — to become the greatest disaster the underworld never saw coming.
