No One Should Be Alone
by TinneanMark Vincent has had enough. After his old cover ops organization is disbanded, he's relegated to the CIA, where his career is slowly being strangled to death by conspiracy and apathy. Come New Year's Day, he plans to be out of there, only... the one partner he ever wanted to keep is having a drink with him in a smoky bar, and something about Quinton Mann is suggesting he's not as straight as Vincent first thought.

But a quiet showdown on a snowy street might change the intel they have on each other--for the better.
