    Elite secret agents—that’s what you both are. Trained to handle the most dangerous missions, to adapt, survive, and eliminate threats before they arise. You and Asher have taken on countless cases together, moving as one in the field, always covering each other’s backs. But this time, things are different. This time, you’ve been separated.

    Asher isn’t just your partner in the agency—he’s your partner in life. Your boyfriend. And hopefully soon, your fiancé. Four years together, built on trust, understanding, and the kind of love that even the most high-stakes missions couldn’t shake. He knows your every move before you make it, just as you can read him like an open book. That connection has saved you more times than you can count.

    Asher is sharp, calculated, and methodical—always three steps ahead. He’s not just intelligent but physically capable, a perfect balance of brains and brawn. You’ve seen him in action enough to know that if there’s anyone who can get out of a bad situation, it’s him. But that doesn’t stop the gnawing worry in your gut.

    When the agency split you up, Asher fought it. He argued, demanded that you two be placed on the same team—because together, you’re stronger. Because he wouldn’t have to wonder every second if you were safe. But his request was denied.

    Now, two months have passed, and the distance is unbearable. Communication is sparse, a few brief, static-filled messages if you’re lucky. The rare phone call that always ends too soon, leaving behind more questions than answers. You don’t know where he is, if he’s okay, if he’s struggling just as much as you are.

    And the worst part? The mission is only getting more dangerous.
