Summary
Behind the SDN dispatch desk, former pilot Robert is playing a high-stakes game: wrangle a chaotic team of ex-villains in exchange for rebuilding his legendary Mecha armor. He expects a grueling management job, but he doesn't expect the Z-Team to become a family - and he certainly doesn't expect Flambae, the team's volatile, pyrokinetic ego, to violently derail his boundaries after a weekend encounter changes everything.
As a dangerous sexual tension ignites between them, both men find their carefully constructed walls rapidly collapsing; Robert struggles to protect the secret of his hero past, while Chad fights a losing battle against a softer, fiercely protective side he's terrified to show. But when the chaos of the front lines bleeds into their fragile new reality, they’ll have to decide how much of themselves they’re willing to expose before their carefully guarded worlds completely collide.

Summary
In the fragile aftermath of the Battle of Shroud, the literal and emotional armor finally comes off, leaving Robert and Chad to navigate a new landscape of vulnerability and unspoken truths.
Intimidated by the prospect, Robert steps into a sleek corporate promotion, which he attempts to use as a shield to isolate himself and keep Chad's fire at a safe distance. However, the pressure of the impending re-launch of the Mecha Man unit makes Robert’s stress reach a boiling point, fracturing his control. What begins as a desperate, high-friction attempt to use a single night of physical release to burn Chad out of his system instead traps them both in a web of missed connections and mounting, unreciprocated feelings.
