Sparrow Ben Hargreeves has spent his entire life believing that emotions are weaknesses and attachment is a luxury he can't afford. Cold, disciplined, and fiercely guarded, he's perfected the art of keeping everyone at arm's length. Then Y/N quietly slips past every wall he's ever built. She doesn't ask him to change. She doesn't fear his sharp tongue or expect him to be gentle. Instead, she meets his silence with patience and his distance with unwavering kindness, leaving Ben to wrestle with feelings he'd rather bury than acknowledge. As missions grow deadlier and the end of the world looms once again, Ben discovers that the greatest threat to his carefully controlled life isn't another apocalypse. It's caring about someone enough to lose them.
