Daniel's Longing For Emma Was Getting Stronger

"Stop right there!" Daniel screamed.

The storm raged outside, mirroring the turmoil in his gut.

Rain lashed against the grimy warehouse windows, casting sickly orange light from distant lightning strikes.

Just as he had feared, he'd found Emma, his assassin-turned-lover, dressed in the chilling black uniform of her former life.

She was once a skillful and cunning cold-blooded assassin who was known for her precision and discretion, always managing to slip through the fingers of the law. 

He, on the other hand, was a dedicated detective, determined to bring criminals like her to justice. He had been tracking her for months, piecing together clues and following leads in an effort to finally apprehend her and he did.

Their first encounter was anything but romantic.

He cornered Emma in a deserted alley, their confrontation charged with tension and danger. But instead of arresting her, something unexpected happened.
