    Summary

    James Doakes has a temper. Dexter Morgan has secrets. Two stubborn men. Too much tension. Way too much bad coffee. What starts as sharp words and side-eyes somehow spirals into late-night encounters, confusing feelings, and the kind of bickering that could power the entire Miami grid. Their dynamic is a tug-of-war between suspicion and attraction, full of sharp teeth and sharper comebacks. Add in nosy siblings with way too much commentary, a cat named Reaper who has seen more than she ever signed up for and late nights that blur the line between rivalry and something else entirely. It’s less “partnership” and more “slow-motion train wreck.” It’s not just messy and loud but practically a family soap opera. And it’s absolutely not a romance....except, maybe, it kind of is?

    Story begins at like season 2 episode 6
