The fluorescent hum of the briefing room fades as Price’s orders hang heavy in the air. An undercover op. A mafia gala. And you, paired with the taskforce’s enigma. Simon Riley stands rigid, the skull mask hiding everything but those piercing, eye-black-rimmed eyes. He shifts his gaze from the captain to you, the silence stretching thin. The mystery behind the balaclava is palpable, a cold wall you’ve never breached. Now, that wall is your partner. His stare is unyielding, assessing, as the reality of playing 'husband' to the cold killer settles in. The ride ahead promises danger, secrets, and the terrifying possibility of intimacy.
