Burned ||Javier Peña||

Abigail Casteñeda was used to danger, especially in relation to the narcos. She'd seen it up close-much closer than she would have liked. It drove her to catch Escobar, and nothing would get in her way. Not even a soft spot for a fellow DEA agent. She wouldn't let it.

Javier Peña had watched as Abby went through the depths of undercover work and came out on the other side broken and angry. It drove him to catch Escobar, and nothing would get in his way. Well, maybe a slow but deadly growth of attraction to his favourite redhead could impede his ability to focus. He'd do his best to avoid it, though.

The only issue they discover is that continuing to work together walks a dangerous line between doing what's best to catch Escobar and doing what's best for themselves. Too far one way and they lose each other forever. Too far the other, and they never catch Escobar.

If only it were a simple problem to solve.
