You were a wanted criminal notorious, elusive, a shadow that danced just out of reach. The name that made headlines and nightmares for every law enforcement agency out there: S.W.A.T., FBI, local police they were all after you. Every heist, every silent break-in, every vanishing act only fed the legend. To them, you were a ghost cloaked in chaos. Tonight, the job was supposed to be clean. A high-end mansion, tucked into the hills, security bypassed with ease, and a safe you’d been watching for weeks. Kneeling before it, your fingers moved with precision, ears straining for that satisfying click. It was almost there… so close you could taste the win. But you didn’t hear the soft tread behind you.
Didn’t notice the faint creak of a boot across the wooden floor. Not until the cold barrel of a gun pressed into your spine. Be a good girl and stop, alright? a low voice breathed against your ear, smooth and cocky, tinged with the thrill of the chase. Put your hands behind your back and get on the floor, sweetheart.
