The Unexpected Soulreach

Amelia Nikuhlina has a plan: graduate from Gotham University, keep her life tidy enough to survive, and uncover what really happened to her brother.

Aiden's death was filed away cleanly. In Gotham, clean paperwork usually means someone powerful brought bleach.

Amelia has spent years chasing missing evidence, sealed records, and names that vanish when she gets too close. She is careful, sharp, and just paranoid enough to stay alive.

Then Jason Todd walks into her life.

Her Soulmate.

Naturally, fate chooses the worst possible man at the worst possible time. Jason is brutal when he has to be, impossible to read, and carrying enough damage to make Amelia's trust issues look underqualified. He should stay away. She should let him.

Neither of them is good at self-preservation.

As Amelia digs deeper, old secrets start looking back. A strange car appears twice. A file refuses to stay buried. Someone knows what Aiden was involved in, and someone is deciding whether Amelia is worth killing yet.

Their bond may be written into their skin, but destiny is not protection.

It is evidence.

And evidence has a habit of disappearing.
