Summary
She kissed him to escape. He let her go.
Later, Spike finds out she’s got a bounty on her head—and just enough woolong to buy a seat on the Bebop instead. Callie swears she’ll make them rich. Technically, she’s not lying.
But every bounty she tracks is someone from her past, and she’s not here for the money; she’s here to clean house.
She fits in too easily. Sleeps light and smiles sharply. Spike doesn’t trust her, but he can’t stop watching her either. She’s a complication he doesn’t need, and the only one who makes him feel alive again.
The closer they get, the more dangerous it gets. Secrets tangle. Glances linger, touches last too long, and when Vicious returns, everything they’ve tried not to say ignites.
Love’s not in the job description, but complications never are.
