OC Kiss Week 2022: Truth or Kiss
Summary: Leigh’s gotten herself into a bit of a scrape and needs a hand (or pair of lips) to help get her out of it.
I’ve been working on this piece for longer than I care to admit and SO happy to have finally gotten it done for this year’s @ockissweek. Marcus “Mark” Carter belongs to @ronqueesha - thank you so much for letting me borrow him!
The idea for this actually came from Mark and Veerla playing Truth or Dare with each other and I’d planned to write it with Vee. But I could NOT get it to work with her. Then along came Leigh and the whole thing just flowed so here is her fic debut! Enjoy!
Truth or Kiss (also on AO3)
There were many things Ansleigh Albright liked about working alone—she took the cases she wanted to take when she wanted to take them and completed them however she saw fit—but she would willingly admit it would have been nice to have someone to pull her ass out of the fire when things went sideways. And judging by the police officer that rushed out of a side street a few blocks ahead of her, things were in fact going sideways.
The outdoor mall didn’t offer a lot of cover besides the crowds. She took her cardigan off and turned toward a nearby kiosk, careful to keep her back to the guard as he passed. Another officer appeared from a shop and joined the first, hurrying off in the direction of her planned escape route. She left her sweater draped over an empty cafe seat and turned back the way she came. There were other ways out of the city and off Terra Nova.
