Halia held onto the coffee that Max brought her and sipped at it nervously as she tried to maintain her composure. She couldn't believe that Sean was down there in the lab with them.
"Are you OK?" Jackson asked as he approached, noticing that Halia was in a bit of a daze.
He gently patted her on the head and smiled at her lovingly.
Sean watched this interaction from the closet with suspicion. Why did these two seem so close?
Halia jumped a little and looked up at the man awkwardly. She knew that Sean was watching. What would he think if he knew that she was officially dating her target? That was completely against the rules of being an undercover officer.
At that moment, Jackson grabbed her chin and began to lean over. Halia looked into his eyes and knew what he was thinking: he wanted to kiss her.
"I love it when you smell like coffee," he whispered seductively.
The man's voice sent tingles down her spine. But, she had to resist.
