Summary: A month after the Battle of Scarif, Jyn and Cassian are sent undercover
to a brothel in the Coruscant Underworld– not a nice place to be. Their mission: to serve as a drop
for other agents deep undercover working to take down the Empire.
Cassian is serving as The Heartmoon Club’s “silencer,” an enforcer of
the rules who protects the brothel at all costs. Jyn, the ilasha,
“The One Who Cannot Be Touched,” is Cassian’s gift to the brothel. It
is a role specifically chosen for her so she will not have to cross the
line for the Rebellion. They’re forced into cramped spaces every few
nights to debrief on what they know, and all around them, the sounds of
pleasure, while they struggle to work out how they feel about each
other, when they can’t get a moment to themselves to just be.
What had he gotten Jyn into? He didn’t have a problem with the Rebellion
disregarding his boundaries or whatever he used to have way back when,
and he did what he had to do for information. But Jyn, she was innocent
in all this. Was she okay? This was all his fault. He had to begin the
protocol to get a message to Draven and ask to be pulled out before the
op was up. It had gone too far.
