She's always had to prove herself to her own father. 

He's never had to. 

Although one half of her biological combination, it was clear he would have always loved him most; wanting him more. 

For the sake of comparison, and competition, she strives to prove herself to her father. And with the life of a hated politician in her hands, she's found an opportunity to.

But what happens when she's assigned to look after a man all while someone else is assigned to look after her? Her father's own prodigy. 

The one she compares herself to, her competition. 

The root of her irritation.

Her hatred. 

The thief of her own joy; Tenzin-Saito Luchèse.

Two high ranked assassins. Numéro uno y dos of the Chimera division in constant competition have  their lives under the radar of danger. But what happens when a bigger threat sprinkles into the mix? An even more dangerous element? Infatuation, obsession. And maybe, just maybe; Force proximity. Tolerance. Like-ability. Admiration. Adoration. Love. 

But it could have never made it to higher heights because of who he is, who she is, and who they both bow to. 

Because after all, it's the mind that control's the body and the heart; the soul.
