Controlled Burn

For five years, Marc Walker has had one job: keep Nico Moretti under control. It should be simple.

Marc is disciplined, steady, ex-military, the kind of man who follows orders, keeps his mouth shut, and knows exactly where the lines are. Nico is everything he isn’t: volatile, vicious, relentlessly charming, and far too comfortable with blood on his hands. Somehow, they work. Marc waits outside the locked doors. Nico does what Elias Rousseau pays him to do. Afterwards, Marc gets him cleaned up, calmed down, and safely home. They don’t talk about the rest.

Not the way Nico watches him. Not the way Marc never seems to flinch from the monster everyone else sees. And definitely not the tension that has been simmering between them for years. But after one job leaves Nico burning hotter than usual, a late-night detour starts pushing at boundaries Marc has spent a lifetime keeping firmly in place.

Nico has always enjoyed finding the exact point where people break. Marc might be the first man he’s ever wanted to see bend instead.
