The Cardinal Rule

They call her Cardinal-the ghost in the system, the most effective assassin in the Unstable Universe. To her targets, she's a last whisper in the dark. To her organization, CHRYSALIS, she's their sharpest blade against the tyrannical order imposed by LAW and its brilliant, unflappable leader, Letticus "LettuceK" Kane.

He rules with logic, control, and an iron fist. She dismantles his world, one bullet at a time.

(Y/N) has two settings: the motor-mouth, bratty best friend to her brother Eggchan and the chaotic Parrot, and the locked-in, silent specter known as Cardinal. She's mastered the art of the funny, cutting comeback-just not on the job. When CHRYSALIS marks one of the SMP's most influential figures as her next target, the operation puts her directly in the crosshairs of the man she hates most.

LettuceK is used to being the smartest person in the room. He's a strategist, a flirtatious provocateur who finds her attempts to disrupt his LAW more amusing than threatening. He knows Cardinal is out there, and he's decided to make hunting her his new favorite game. He loves to tease, to rage-bait, to get under her skin.

The rule is simple: Never let the enemy know your face. Too bad she's about to break it for him.
