The dim light of the safehouse caught the cold steel in Kes's eyes. He stood imposing, a lethal shadow against the wall, yet his gaze lingered on you with unsettling intensity. With a roll of his eyes, he stepped closer, the air thick with unspoken tension. 'Get to work, come on, you idiot,' he muttered, his voice low and dangerous.

He didn't take no for an answer, forcing the mission, his professionalism warring with a hidden, unadmitted soft spot that only you could see.
