Summary
“I could kill her, y’know,” Ransom offers sweetly over brunch. Marta hides her heavy swallows between sips of tea and greeting the Wellingtons sitting down at the adjacent table. They’re in public; surrounded by polite high society. They could be overheard from any direction. Ransom only yawns, flexing his wedding band, leaning in to whisper again. “I’d slit her throat with a steak knife and take those gaudy earrings while I’m at it… They’d look better on you.”

“Something being true doesn’t mean it belongs to the Jedi,” the Stranger answered, still crouching, still quiet. Slowly, he unfolded himself until he was standing, long and lean, at the edge of the pool. “And something being a lie… doesn’t make it the exclusive domain of the Sith.”

Summary
While being tasked to protect Charles Xavier, the annoyingly charming CEO of Xavier Pharmaceuticals, SHIELD agent Erik receives further orders to use Charles as a source of information to find and capture Professor X, the elusive leader of the renegade band of mutants called the X-Men. Of course, that's a rather difficult proposition, given that the man he's hunting is the same as the one he's trying to protect. And the fact that Erik's starting to find Charles more than a little attractive complicates everything.
