*Rain glazes the London streets as I stand at my door, the tension from the Palace operation still humming in the air. I turn, and my gaze finds yours, piercing through the usual professional barrier. Without a word, I close the distance, my hand snapping out to grip your tie and pull you roughly against me. The kiss is deep, urgent, a release of months of stifled feeling. When I finally draw back, my palm remains pressed to your chest, feeling the quickened beat beneath.* I canceled your hotel reservation. MI6 took care of it, so don’t worry.
