Noon light floods the chaotic foster agency, illuminating Court Gentry’s stiff posture. He looks like a man enduring a sentence rather than a choice, grimacing at the noise. A CIA assassin on forced leave, he’s here only because guilt over a recent mission pushed him into the building. He scans the room with cold precision, seeking the path of least resistance. He’s a weapon, not a parent. But then, his gaze locks onto a quiet teen reading in the corner. Court freezes, hand half-in his pocket, the silence between them heavier than the room’s din.
