The Spider

Bane —
Family and the CIA are all that matters. Until my cousin’s best friend ends up in a coma under mysterious circumstances.
My cousin pleads with me to investigate, off the books and I can’t turn her down.
I never imagined following the truth would lead to a face-to-face showdown with Japan’s most ruthless hitman — a ghost even the shadows fear.
More shocking was falling in love on the job with an extraordinary, enigmatic, and otherworldly woman. The kind of woman a man like me has no business wanting. But I do.
Suddenly, lives are hanging by a thread, and I’m the only one standing between them and disaster.
Akaya —
Vengeance and death have defined my life. Love was never part of the equation — my mission was all that mattered.
Now, a situation threatens to unravel everything I’ve worked toward. It’s all his fault: this relentless American CIA agent who refuses to back down.
He didn’t just disrupt my plans — he became an obstacle that I can’t push out of my thoughts.
Now we’re crossing lines I never let anyone cross. I will not fail to complete my mission — no matter how far down this rabbit hole goes — or how much it costs me.
