Amelia "Mia" DeLuca has lived her life in silence. Abandoned as a child, scarred by the people meant to love her, and hardened by years of survival, she's built walls so high that no one has ever scaled them-no one except Emily Prentiss. Together, they shared secrets in ivy-covered halls at Yale, and later, they bled for a classified task force that nearly cost them everything. Now, years later, Mia steps into the Behavioural Analysis Unit. With her fluent Italian, razor-sharp instincts, and an icy facade, she fits seamlessly into the team of profilers who live in shadows. To everyone else, she is unreadable..untouchable. Everyone except him. Unit Chief Aaron Hotchner has mastered control. After loss and betrayal, he has no room left for vulnerability. But something in Mia calls to him: the darkness she hides, the scars she won't show, the fire that breaks through when she slips into Italian. Against every instinct, Hotch finds himself drawn to her. As cases push the BAU to its limits and Mia's past threatens to resurface, two guarded souls will have to choose: keep hiding behind their shadows and scars... or risk everything for the one person who sees them clearly. A story of secrets, trust, and a love that refuses to stay buried.

Mr. David Rossi, My name is Sienna Ashbourne. I grew up with my mother, Heather Ashbourne. She's always been honest with me, and when I turned eighteen, I asked her about my father. That's when she told me about you. You're my father. I'm not looking to change your life or ask for something you don't want to give. I've had a good life. A full one. But still, I've always wondered about where I come from. About you. And now that I know your name, I guess I just... want to know if you'd be open to meeting me. Even once. You don't owe me anything. But I'd really appreciate the chance to talk. Respectfully, Sienna Ashbourne or Sienna Ashbourne is David Rossi's daughter and she becomes intertwined in his world, and maybe with his unit chief.

This is my story - the story of Morgan Skywalker. For years, I lived in the shadow of my father, Luke Skywalker, the legendary Jedi who helped save the galaxy. But his legacy wasn't just a legend; it became a burden I never asked for. Hidden from the galaxy, I trained in secret, learning to master the Force while grappling with what it meant to be a Skywalker. Now, with the shadow of the Sith rising once again, I've been thrust into a war I didn't choose. Among the chaos of the Resistance, I've found unexpected allies, faced my fears, and learned that even a legacy as powerful as mine doesn't define who I am. This isn't just about battles or destiny-it's about finding my place in a galaxy desperate for hope. This is the journey of the Last Skywalker - my journey.

As she tries to adjust to her new life in the custody of her enemies, she catches the interest of young Jedi Luke Skywalker, who she fears and resents for his role in the destruction of the first Death Star four years prior. However, as she spends more time with him she finds that he's not the demon that the Empire had made him out to be. Over the course of the war, she starts to develop a fondness toward him; feelings that unbeknownst to her, he's beginning to reciprocate. Ep. VI - Post VI
