Summary: Grant might be able to look the other way when someone captures his favorite enemies. Not so much when one of those enemies is his soulmate.
For once his training betrayed him. He was so busy looking for the hidden threat, he missed his soulmate sleeping at the corner of the couch, in plain view from the doorway.
She’s curled up in that ugly throw blanket Ortilla gave him for Christmas last year, head bent against her chest at what’s gotta be an uncomfortable angle. She looks like she fell asleep waiting for him—worried about him? No, Grant’s not that delusional. More likely there’s a knife hidden under the folds of the afghan, waiting to ward him off if he tries anything.
He allows himself a moment to take her in. Jemma. His soulmate. Right here in front of him, nothing between them but air.
