Collateral Hearts

When a late-night intel chase turns into a mission gone sideways, two operatives-equal parts partners and professional antagonists-find themselves soaked, bruised, and forced into close quarters. You and Bucky Barnes have survived firefights, undercover ops, and one too many arguments about tactics. But now, trapped in a rain-slick city hotel room with an injury, unresolved tension, and a Hydra lead that cuts too close to his past, the line between partnership and something dangerously personal starts to blur. What begins as an op becomes a test of trust, loyalty, and whether either of you can stop running long enough to realize what's really at stake.
