Jenna couldn’t breathe. Her body was numb, and it felt like she’d been kicked in the head. Mack! She needed Mack. He had to climb up and over that hill and wrap his muscular arms around her or she was going to die. Here and now. Die. A high-pitched sound screeched through the night. Another RPG?

“Jeez, relax, Jenna.”

“Breathe,” Ty whispered.

The high-pitched squeak continued in her ears.

“You’ve got to get her to quiet down. I can’t hear the chatter,” Charlie said.

The guys were all talking to her at once. She had no idea she made the horrible whining until Ty got in her face and put his gloved hand over her mouth. “Look at me. Focus on my voice. Breathe.”

She did. His gloves smelled like metal and gunpowder.

“If I move my hand will you stop screaming?” Ty spoke softly as if she were a scared pony about to bolt.

She nodded.

“Good, girl.”

“I’ve got them!” Charlie’s voice rang triumphantly. Mack!

Jenna scrambled over to Charlie. “Where? Why doesn’t he come in? Get him to come in right now!”

“They’ve got the hostages. Hang on. What do you need, Mack?” Charlie listened for a long hard beat. “Yeah, okay. Ty, come here.”

Ty scrambled over to Charlie’s radio.

“I’ve got Mack on the line. They pulled the hostages out of the shack in time. A minute later and he and Tavon would have been flattened. He needs you to talk to the hostages.”

Jenna frowned. “Why Ty?”

Charlie handed the headset over to Ty and answered her question. “Because we rescued the wrong hostages.”

“Mack doesn’t have the Harmonds?”

“No. He’s got two cartel big-wigs. CRAF kidnapped them for some sort of leverage in the Coke War. Apparently, the cartel wants them back.”

Jenna’s jaw dropped. The guys could have been killed and the Harmonds weren’t even down there? Where the Harmonds still alive? “Where’s my family?”

“That’s what Mack is trying to find out. He and Tavon have the two men sequestered behind a thick grove of trees in the jungle.”

Ty spoke Spanish into the mic, speaking quietly. He calmed the hostages down, just as he had calmed her. Ty had a gentle way with people.

Jenna was fluent and wished she could hear what the men were saying on the other end, but more than that, she desperately wanted to hear Mack’s voice through the radio. “Can you turn it up a little, Charlie?”

He did.

Mack said, “Ask them if they saw the Harmonds.”

Ty did and the hostages responded that they had earlier that morning. There were two men, a woman, a young girl and a boy.

Two men? Was one of them Andrew?

“Ask them which way they went,” Mack said.

Ty did and there was some discussion between the two men. “North” was the final answer.

“Ask them if anyone was injured—.” Gunfire cut off Mack’s words.

“Oh crap, CRAF spotted them.” Charlie was behind her. “Mack, get out of there!”

A barrage of gunfire exploded out of the earpiece. Ty yanked it away from his head.

“Tavon! Holy Shit!” Mack yelled. “Tavon’s down. Hostages down. I returned fire.
