Summary
"That was close," he said quietly. You could feel the vibration of his words through his chest, the low rumble sending awareness skittering across your nerves.
You tilted your face up, studying his expression in the dim light filtering from the street.
His pupils had blown wide, leaving only a thin ring of blue, and suddenly you couldn’t look away.
You built your career keeping dangerous Praedators off the streets. As the youngest captain of the LCBI's most successful enforcement unit, you're very good at your job. When the unit's increased workload forces you to hire an assistant, you expect competent filing and decent coffee. Xavier Shen, an unremarkable astronomy graduate desperate for work, delivers. He's quiet and reliable, exactly what you need.
But when a dangerous case lands on your desk and powerful interests offer assistance with hidden costs, you discover that your reluctant new partnership with EVER Corp isn't what it seems.
...Neither is Xavier.
[Inspired by Xavier's Catch-22 Deluded Fiction card]

Summary
Tara drops onto the bench beside you, smirking like she’s caught you in a lie. “So, Xavier’s making waves in the squad group chat.”
You glance up warily. “Waves?”
“Apparently his protective streak is turning into Alpha Team’s favorite spectator sport. The rookie moves too close, Xavier reminds him to stay at least three meters from you. Not in so many words, of course.”
(In which MC and Xavier navigate late-night missions, squad gossip, and the fragile, unspoken boundaries of a workplace romance.)
