Trowa x Duo Recs

Excerpt:

"Matvei was talking stupid shit, like always, talking about how-" She turned, caught sight of just who she was speaking to, and abruptly went silent.

Ah. Matvei been talking about Duo, or about Gundam pilots, or about Duo and Trowa running the shipments, or who the fuck knew, and it really didn't matter.

Duo sighed.

He shouldered his way through the remaining people between him and Trowa, coming to a stop when he cleared the loose circle that had formed around them and sized up the situation.

Trowa was just fucking with the guy - Matvei cradling his injured arm, blood streaming from his nose - and though Trowa hadn't even broken a sweat, Duo could see the barely leashed fury in his stance, in the square of his shoulders, and the realization on Matvei's face that he'd bitten off more than he could chew.

He couldn't say he didn't find it at least a little bit satisfying, to see the big, Russian enforcer reduced to near tears by so little effort. Duo didn't like the man, and the feeling was mutual. He'd started it, of course, with the little knife trick, but Matvei had done everything in his power to increase the animosity, spurred on by some imagined competition between the two of them.

As if he were any competition for Duo in any sense of the word.

  Years after the wars, Preventers has decided to tackle one of the most powerful and oldest of all the Terran crime syndicates. Embedded dangerously deep in an undercover operation targeting the violent and bloodthirsty Sinaloa Cartel, Trowa Barton is pushed beyond even his flexible morals - and when his new "partner" arrives in the very unexpected and unwelcome form of Duo Maxwell, the one person he'd been trying to protect at all costs, both men must deal with the realization that preserving peace for humanity is turning into a bloodsport. What follows is race against time to uncover the evidence they need to bring Sinaloa, and its beautiful but deadly leaders, down - all while keeping each other alive in the process.
  
  Authors' notes: As a general rule this fic contains: implied torture, death, description of a human trafficking organization and its methods, the surrounding implications of human trafficking including forced prostitution and what amounts to slavery, drug and alcohol use, and drug trafficking. We understand that these subjects are not for everyone. We have made every effort to be respectful and accurate without being gratuitous or disturbing. The bad guys are bad. The good guys are, sometimes, not much better.
  
  My notes: BAMF, streetwise Duo and Trowa, lots of angst and hurt.
