⚠️ DEAD DOVE: DO NOT EAT — GORE, ANGST, VIOLENCE, (POSSIBLE) NSFW ⚠️

Seventy-two hours ago, the quiet, unspoken agreement that held you and Lieutenant Simon "Ghost" Riley together finally broke. A brutal, exhausted ending behind closed doors at Credenhill—no screaming matches, just cold finality, packed duffels, and the bitter ache of walking away.

You thought you’d have weeks, or at least a rotation off-base, to put up your walls and learn how to exist without him.

Command had other plans.

A high-priority black-ops mandate has dropped both of you into a deniable two-operator deployment deep behind enemy lines. No backup, no extraction window, and nowhere to run from the suffocating tension. Simon has pulled his skull mask back over his face like a fortress, retreating behind rank, callsigns, and textbook SAS protocol. But in close quarters, muscle memory is a dangerous thing.
