Some debts are paid for with cash, the payment for this one was blood...
Her past was a mystery, even to her friends, or those who thought they were her friends, and that's just how she liked it. There was something about the outside world she hated, but there were so many options to choose from that she couldn't place her finger on what was wrong; until she was meant to collaborate with the CIA on a wanted man on the far side of the country. He's on the top ten most wanted men, and has been running wild since committing a killing spree years prior, now he's controlling most of the city, even though the resident wouldn't recognize it. Something like that only happened in movies. They didn't even know what real life was, the death, rejection, and revenge driven life that most of the agents in CIRA lived; if the world knew, they wouldn't be able to handle the truth.
She could barely handle the truth when she laid eyes on her father, her past, her secrets, walking around alive and well. Anger was the first emotion, and the need for revenge came soon after. He ruined her life, made it hell, and now she would do the same to him. To her this was real life, this was her family, and she was sent to put an end to it. Family; that was always the problem.

She never questioned an order, never hesitated. Her reputation was built on precision and detachment.But even perfect killers crave something human - something real. She just never thought it would come in the form of a spy sent to stop her. Ava Carter lived in the realm of deception. A top agent for the Intelligence Bureau, she was trained to manipulate, seduce, and extract secrets without leaving a trace. Her missions were clean, her emotions calculated - until Nicole appeared on her radar. Their first encounter was chaos: bullets, smoke, and a single shared look that neither could shake. What began as a mission turned into a collision - two women on opposite sides, bound by orders but drawn by something neither could explain. Nicole was supposed to kill Ava. Ava was supposed to capture Nicole. Instead, they found themselves working together when both agencies turned against them after a botched operation that revealed truths neither was meant to uncover. Now fugitives, they move through cities under false names - partners in survival, but more than that in the spaces between. There's a tension in every glance, a heartbeat in every argument, a spark every time their hands brush while cleaning their weapons or patching each other's wounds. Nicole tells herself she can't afford to care. Ava swears she won't fall for someone who kills for a living. But in a world built on lies, the only thing that feels real is each other - and that's what makes it dangerous. Because love, for people like them, isn't salvation. It's a weakness that could get them both killed.

Under Your Watch: Bulletproof Lies (On-Going)
He was born into the shadows. She was raised to uncover them. In a world where loyalty is bought with blood and silence is survival, their paths were never meant to cross. He was the quiet, cold son of a mafia family-someone who'd learned early that emotions were weaknesses best buried. She, on the other hand, was everything he wasn't: bright, kind, and fearless, a girl who smiled through the cruelty of others, even when her name was whispered with envy and hate. Her classmates despised her brilliance, mocked her joy, and tore her down in ways that left invisible scars. But while she stood alone against it all, she never knew someone had been watching-someone who made sure every hand raised against her never went unpunished. He protected her from the shadows, fought for her without ever being seen, and somewhere between the silence and violence, something inside him began to change. But time has a way of turning light into distance. Years later, he's the ruthless successor to his family's empire. She's a secret agent, trained to bring down that very same empire. Neither recognizes the other-until a mission gone wrong exposes her, and he takes her captive. Now, behind locked doors and under his watch, lies and truth blur like gunfire in the night. Between the crosshairs of duty and desire, they'll discover that the most dangerous kind of love... is the one you're forbidden to have.
