Hawk

“Stay low to the ground. You will shoot on my orders only.” My instructions were whispered, but my men heard every word.

“You sure about this?” Mustang whispered as he crawled forward, his gun positioned toward the camp.

“He’s sure,” Scorpion answered for me, already in position and waiting for my order.

“This is the only chance of getting him out alive,” I answered, hissing as I noticed a group of soldiers hovering near the dilapidated bunker. I knew their movements, had studied them on the infrared scanners for three nights, always the same. Tonight, the fuckers were alternating their pattern. Goddamn the worthless pieces of shit.

I waved my hand to the others, drawing Vader and Reaper closer, pointing to altered positions. Patience had never been my virtue and tonight, the entire situation was grating my last nerve. The insurgents had never been on the radar as far as the military was concerned, yet their numbers were growing.

As well as their methods of punishing any captured American soldier. It was time to eradicate the faction once and for all.

Too bad not everyone followed my belief.

The night was quiet, far too much for the mission in front of us, but I refused to succumb to fear. We would locate Snake and we would rescue him.

As the soldiers laughed, the smoke of their cigarettes blowing in our direction, I held my breath until they disappeared.

“On the count of three,” I whispered. “One. Two...”

Fuck.

I couldn’t get away from the visions, the memories clouding every inch of my mind. Drake’s death had only fueled the ache burning in my loins, the need to retaliate against the enemy.

Meanwhile, I trusted almost no one.

“You okay?” Bryce asked, as if sensing my sudden tension.

“I’ll be better when you learn to follow my rules,” I muttered before nipping her earlobe.

“And you know that’s never going to happen,” she said, her body quivering against mine.

I tried to concentrate on the moment, yanking myself away from both the war and the ugly memories. A lot of fucking good that did. I could still see Snake’s smiling face, could hear his laugh. He’d been the practical joker of the group, the one who’d often kept the rest of us from going insane. He’d also been careless, forgetting his extensive training.

Gracie’s soft snorts brought me fully into the present.

As I rode through a bank of trees, I allowed Gracie to take the lead. She remembered the path, the time she and I had spent alone in our effort to get away from the family. The spot had been my place to think and plan. I’d never even taken a single member of the posse to the location, preferring to keep it to myself. If they’d known, parties would have occurred, destroying the quiet reverence I’d learned I needed.

I’d also never taken a girl here before, something that struck me the moment Gracie shot through to the clearing. Why
