“Chief, you know I don’t do partners anymore. Especially males.” The short haired newbie chuckled at me with a cute smile that made my heart jump unexpectedly. “Detective Amber J. Liu… and don’t worry, I don’t do flings too.” I suddenly wanted to scold my heart for jumping like that.

My team all snickered controlling their laughter with what they heard leaving me chuckling too, for the first time ever… even a stupid response made me smile. She shrugged her shoulders and held her hand in front of me with a smile that will make me sleepless tonight. I took her hand and it was warm… like her smile.

“Detective Jung Soojung…” I shook it and nodded at her. “…welcome to the team.”
