[Edited Version ● Alternate Ending] "Colin? I feel so awful lying to you so I have to tell you what happened..today," Frankie blurted out, nervously cracking her knuckles as she stared at her boyfriend from one side of the living room. Colin's bright blue eyes danced. "What is it, sweetheart?" "I...I bumped into my ex-husband in the elevator today." "And?" Frankie exhaled. "And we had sex. In the elevator." There was an interminable silence before Colin smiled. "We'll work through this, honey. Don't worry." "Work through this?" she spluttered in disbelief. "How? How can we, when all I want is for him to do it again? And again, and again, and again, and..." She trailed off, sighing.

"Take my hand," he shouts, dropping his gun and extending his arm towards me. "Never in a million years," I snap, trying to steady myself as I feel my grip slowly slipping at the edge. "Look here, Solace, I'm trying to save your life, not asking you to marry me," he tries again. Knowing that I don't really have another option, I grab onto his arm, finding a foothold at last as he hauls me upwards. I bump into him and his arms snake around my waist, helping me regain my balance. "The word your brain is searching for is 'thank you'," an arrogant smirk forms on his lips. "You wish," I remark, trying to push past him. "Fine, just know you asked for it. I usually like repayment of my deeds," he says, before smashing his lips onto mine. -×- Clove Solace, a FBI surveillance investigator, is someone you don't wanna mess with. She's smart, short-tempered and a strategist, just about everything you can't handle. But that's before she meets Zach, a person she was totally not planning to bump into. Being the Head Field Agent of the case they're working on, he may not be very friendly but there are mysteries hiding under that quirky sense of humour we fall in love with. Sounds like your typical romance novel? Believe me, this is nothing like that. Just a crime thriller with a touch of angsty romance, as you discover the true sides of each person and slowly fall in love with the members of the team. But that's until everything goes wrong, and maybe all stories don't have a very happy ending. This one does though, and you'll see how. It's not a rule that agents are not supposed to engage in any romantic relationships while working on a case. However, it's not exactly something which the management department supports and as time passes, our partners in crime find it difficult to maintain their perfect reputation. Jealous best friends, sisters in love and an unknown spy? We've a long journey to embark on before this story gets over... (Status: On Hold) -×-
