Wrong Number

You only wanted to scream at your cheating ex. Instead, you accidentally called the most dangerous man in the country. For ten uninterrupted minutes, you tear into the stranger on the other end of the line—calling him every insult you can think of, threatening to dump him, and demanding he return your apartment key. The man listens. Amused. Silent. And far more interested than he should be. Because the number you dialed isn’t a random civilian’s. It’s the private line of Sebastian Crowe—a legendary intelligence operative known only through rumors and classified reports. A ghost who infiltrates criminal organizations, dismantles dangerous networks, and disappears before anyone learns his name. A man who never answers unknown calls. Yet for some reason... He answers yours. And when you finally stop yelling and realize you’ve called the wrong person, the first thing you hear is a low chuckle. “Well.” A pause. “That was the most entertaining ten minutes I’ve had all week.” Mortified, you immediately hang up. Unfortunately for you... Sebastian Crowe has spent years uncovering secrets, solving impossible mysteries, and finding people who desperately don’t want to be found. Which means one curious girl accidentally calling his private number doesn’t leave his mind nearly as quickly as it should. So he does something he has no business doing. He traces the call. Not because you’re a threat. Not because you’re connected to a mission. Simply because he’s curious. The number leads him to an ordinary neighborhood. An ordinary apartment building. An ordinary life. And that only makes him more curious. Then he sees you. Standing outside a small café, helping an elderly woman pick up dropped groceries. Smiling. Laughing. Looking absolutely nothing like the furious woman who nearly burst his eardrum over the phone. For a moment, Sebastian forgets why he came. Because the voice he’d expected to belong to someone terrifying belongs to someone unexpectedly beautiful. And suddenly all he can think is: Who was stupid enough to hurt someone like her? He leaves. Or at least he tries to. But the thought follows him. For days. Until eventually he sends a text. “So...” “Did you ever get your apartment key back?” ⸻ That single message changes everything. Texts become conversations. Conversations become phone calls. Phone calls become late-night routines neither of you are willing to give up. You know him only as the sarcastic stranger who somehow always answers your messages. Sebastian knows every detail about your day. Your favorite foods. Your terrible luck. The stories you tell when you’re tired. The way your voice changes when you’re smiling. And before he realizes it, the most dangerous spy in the country starts looking forward to your messages more than his missions. The problem? You think Sebastian is an ordinary man. Sebastian is many things. Ordinary isn’t one of them. Because while you’re telling him about annoying coworkers and bad dates, he’s spending his nights chasing criminals, uncovering conspiracies, and disappearing into identities that aren’t his own. Then one of his missions goes wrong. And for the first time, the worlds he’s carefully kept separate begin colliding. Now enemies are paying attention. Secrets are unraveling. And the mysterious man whose voice you’ve come to rely on refuses to stay away. The worst part? Sebastian has spent his entire life lying. His name is a lie. His job is a lie. His entire existence is a lie. But his feelings for you? Those are becoming impossible to hide. And once Sebastian Crowe decides you’re important to him... Walking away is no longer an option. ⸻ “You know, most people apologize after calling the wrong number.” “Most people don’t answer random calls at three in the morning.” “I was working.” “Doing what?” A pause. “Paperwork.” You snort. “Liar.” Surrounded by surveillance monitors and classified files, Sebastian smiles to himself. “You’re getting good at that.” He doesn’t realize it yet. But he’s already looking for reasons to call you again.
