In a city ruled by corruption, Lev Haiba thrives in the shadows. A top-level drug dealer with an easy smile and a dangerous reputation, he knows how to stay one step ahead. Money talks, bullets whisper, and trust gets you killed.
Detective Yaku Morisuke has spent years hunting men like Lev. Sharp, relentless, and sick of watching criminals slip through the cracks, he's willing to do whatever it takes to put Lev behind bars.
But when a deal goes sideways and a bigger enemy makes both of them targets, Yaku and Lev find themselves with one shared problem, one loaded gun, and one impossible choice-trust each other, or end up dead.
Two sides of the law. One game they can't escape. And a line between them that gets thinner with every breath.
❝I've been falling every day
since I first met you.❞
stolen glances,
hushed whispers,
teasing breaths,
lingering touches.
