Rich, lethal, and untouchable - one of the FBI's strongest operatives stationed in Thailand. He smells like metal and dark chocolate. Control is his language. Softness is not. When Perth starts coming to the cafe down the road, Santa tells himself it's just coffee. He can't afford distractions. He can't afford hope. Luke comes first. Always.
