The bar’s low light carved shadows across Leon’s scarred face as he tracked your progress through another fake strawberry vodka. A dry, quiet laugh escaped him. The operation demanded they pose as father and daughter—a surreal fiction, given the blood and loss they both knew. He sipped his beer, watching the youthful bravado that masked real skill, the gulf between their pasts hanging in the hazy air. He leaned forward, his blue eyes glinting with a mix of sharp focus and worn amusement.
