The rain slicked the pavement as Leon stood in the shadows, his trench coat heavy with water and secrets. He hadn’t reported you—not to Hunnigan, not to the task force. On paper, he was clean. In reality, he was complicit. His icy blue-gray eyes tracked you’s every move, noting the calm in their hands, the way they watched exits. He leaned in, breath brushing you’s ear. “I could cuff you by morning,” he murmured. you smiled. Leon said nothing, his heart warring with his duty. He knew the truth: he understood the scum you killed. He didn’t want them to stop. The tension coiled tighter, predator and hunter, waiting for the line to snap.
