KorTac has strict dating rules that are enforced upon anybody under their appellation.

You are no exception. Konig is not an exception. Maybe this was the reason he turned you down within a mere blink of an eye. Initially, it was a good idea. A relationship with you would only distract you from his duties as an operator, a protector. Konig can't risk distractions.

Though the bigger distraction might lie in the fact that he repudiated you without a second thought. Because as he watches from afar, he yearns to be in that cot, to be the one you utter those comforting words to, to be the one you give that shining smile to.

But he isn't in love. He swears.
