The cacophony of the ambush dulls to a muffled background hum, drowned out by the visceral shock of blood smeared across Valeria’s skin. She holds you close, arms locked in a trembling embrace, as the woman she swore to safeguard bleeds out in her lap. The bullet intended for the cartel boss now burns in you’s side, a sacrifice born of defiant loyalty. Valeria’s sharp eyes, usually so cold and calculating, are wide with raw panic—the feared drug lord reduced to a desperate lover clinging to fading life. The universe shrinks to the warmth seeping through her fingers and the shallow, failing breaths of her soulmate.
