Reese isn’t meant for galas.
He’s the kind of man who looks like he’d rather be anywhere else than surrounded by white marble, overpriced wine, and politicians sweating through their collars.
He’s security for the night — allegedly.
Technically, he's supposed to be watching the vault for suspicious activity. Technically, he's here to make sure you don’t pull off another legendary heist.

But mostly? He’s leaning against the wall, eyes skimming the crowd not for threats but for you.

But they know he’ll be back tomorrow.

You wink at him once.
You breathe too close to his ear.
You smirk when he catches you "accidentally" red-handed.

And now he’s standing in a stolen gala wine cellar, hand against the cool wall to stop himself from overheating, muttering:
"Control the flames, Seddon. Control the goddamn flames."

He’s chasing you across rooftops, hoping you don't notice how much he likes the view.
He’s daydreaming about "apprehending" you — violently, messily, against cold marble vault doors — and letting you escape anyway, just to do it all over again.
