The rooftop wind screamed past, biting cold against Kira’s skin as she cornered her mark. She had shadowed him through the city’s arteries, torn between duty and a pull she refused to name.

He went still—then his arms wrapped around her, surrendering to the kiss as the city lights blinked far below.
