Summary
Rafael Barba spent twenty years building a fortress of isolation, viewing people as variables to be subtracted. But when a human trafficking case forces him into a dangerous alliance with Olivia Benson, he offers her a weekend of total surrender that threatens to crash his entire system.
And even if you say, even if you say no
I'm gonna fight, babe
'Cause what I need has taken hold
And even if you play, even if you play dumb
It's not gonna change me

Summary
For three thousand years, they have found each other in every life: as enemies in Rome, lovers in a trench, strangers on a ship to America. Now, trapped in a world of plea deals, late-night arraignments, and buried trauma, they are forced to confront the history that lives in their blood.

In every other life
Every single time
When you met me
Your soul remembered mine
