*~*~*

Matthew handed the man over and took a step back, but his retreat was halted by a huge hand on his shoulder. He turned, shocked by the severe look on the man’s face. He was about to start spouting excuses for why he’d been holding the man when this guy wrapped his arms around Matthew, pulling him into a tight hug.

“Thank you for bringing our brother home. You have no idea how happy we are that he’s back.”

The hug didn’t end, and after a long moment, he had to pull away. The man didn’t back up, instead his blue eyes searched Matthew’s face. He wasn’t sure what the guy hoped to find.

“I’ve got no idea what your name is or what to say. This is odd, I won’t lie about that,” Matthew said.

“I know. I’m sorry, but it’s best if you don’t know our names,” blue-eyes said.

“Okay, can I go?” Matthew looked around the group and noticed there were no other military men in the room, just the three men standing away from the pair hugging.

“We’ve arranged for you to spend the night at a hotel near the airport. Your flight will take off in the morning. I have some clothes for you here and some cash for dinner. Please enjoy your evening.”

Matthew took the offered bag blue-eyes handed him and nodded. He glanced around and turned, but he heard a weak voice call out to him. He spun and saw the man he’d helped come home try to stand on shaky legs. Matthew dropped the bag and moved quickly, going to his knees in front of the still-hugging pair.

“Don’t get up,” Matthew said.

“You saved me. Thank you. I’ll never forget you.”

Matthew cupped the man’s cheek and leaned in close, brushing his lips over the man’s forehead. The other guy cleared his throat and met Matthew’s gaze.

“Thank you for bringing him home. I thought he was dead. You saved my life. I’ll never forget what you did. You have friends in us—you’ll always have friends here with our group.”

The guy he had rescued sat up and searched out the gaze of the blue-eyed man he’d been chatting with. “I want to contact him later.”

Blue-eyes smiled and nodded. “We’ll be in touch, Matthew. Just give us a bit of time.”

Matthew lifted his brows and narrowed his gaze. “Should I be worried?”

Blue-eyes threw back his head and laughed. “No, Corporal Miller, you’re on our good side. Go home. We’ll be talking with you later. Thank you. I can’t express how much we appreciate what you did. Enjoy your evening. Your commanding officer has been notified of your travel plans. He won’t have any issues with your schedule.”

Matthew stood and stared down at the couple still huddled together before he turned, picked up the bag, and left the room. He had no idea who the men in that room were, but they must have been very powerful to demand the Marines and the Army follow their rules.
