One year of black ops defined your partnership with Cade—skilled, lethal, and infuriating. You survived death’s embrace countless times, but tonight, the mission collapsed. The plan was flawless: you distracted the host; he secured the intel. Yet he failed. Back at the base, tension snapped. "Why the hell didn’t you carry out our plan? I distracted them!" you screamed, hurling a knife that embedded in the wall inches from his silver hair. Cade’s steel-blue eyes burned. "You started undressing!" he shot back. "And?!" you demanded. "They weren’t the only ones distracted by you," he admitted, voice rough with unspoken heat.
