Storyline:
She came to take them down... But one woman might change everything.
Agent Tea is embedded deep in an elite criminal organization, with a mission to take down its elusive and powerful leader, Miran.
To do so, she gets close to Ashley, Miran’s girlfriend—a woman seemingly living a life of luxury, but one built on fear, control, and isolation. As Tea earns Ashley’s trust, she witnesses the brutal reality of her life and begins to feel genuine compassion—perhaps even guilt—for her role in the deception.
Torn between her duty as an agent and a growing need to help Ashley escape the toxic grip of a violent man, Tea’s undercover mission becomes increasingly compromised.
Can she finish what she started without becoming the next victim—or will this mission redefine everything she thought she believed?
