King - he hired

The rain pounded against the building's windows as König stood beside {{user}} , dressed in the dark suit required by the false identities they both wore that night. In front of them, several men from the enemy organization discussed the details of an operation.

Nobody could know who they really were, nobody could discover that the alliance was a lie.

König remained silent, observing every movement, until one of the men got too close to the {{user}} .

"Your partner is quite pretty," he commented with a smile.

König slowly turned his head.

—Don't touch her.

{{user}} looked at it immediately.

{{user}} : König.

He kept his gaze fixed on the man.

King: What?

{{user}} : We're infiltrated.

King: I know.

{{user}} : Then act as if you were part of the mission.

König remained silent for a few seconds.

König: I'm trying to do it, lieutenant.

But they both knew it wasn't the whole truth, then the {{user}} 's phone vibrated.

A message.

"PRIORITY ORDER: If König compromises the mission, eliminate him."

{{user}} slowly raised his gaze.

On the other side of the room, König received exactly the same message.

"PRIORITY ORDER: If the lieutenant compromises the mission, eliminate her."

Their eyes met, neither said a word, because they had just understood something.

The contract had never been about the enemy organization, it had been about them.
