JACKSON
Pulling open my desk drawer, I grab the bottle of Advil and pop a
couple back. I went too hard this morning in the gym. My shoulder
throbs. Five years and it still fucks with me. I knew the second the bullet
ripped through me, my career as a DEVGRU with the Navy Seals was over.
Not that I regret it. That last mission was worth it. The lives we’d saved. I
knew when I shifted my body in front of Blu’s the shot would end my
career, but it would have ended his life if I hadn’t. I saw the shot coming.
What I didn’t see coming was me spending most of my days sitting behind
a desk. How times have changed.
I glance up when a knock sounds on my open door. Speak of the devil
himself.
“Blu.” I give him a nod, inviting him in. “How are your assignments
going?”
“Fine.” He drops a few folders down on my desk. “How do you sit at this
desk all day? I’ve been doing it for a week and my ass is already killing
me.”
Blu got out of the Seals six months ago. He reached out, and I hired him on
the spot. It’s handy when you own a security company and have access to
Seals. Almost all of my employees have a strong military background.
“Everyone works the desk,” I tell him again. I don’t just drop men out on
jobs. Knowing how to collect information is as important as working in the
field. I want my employees to know how to do all the ins and outs.
“I know, but can you give me something hard? I found the Woods girl in a
few hours.” I’m not shocked. How far could a runaway heiress get? I’d bet
my life the girl has never even flown commercial. Either way, this is going
to be an easy million.
“Did she make it very far?” I didn’t think she would.
“Aren’t you from Cottonwood Creek?”
“Yeah.” I grab the folder. “Why?”
“That’s where she is.”
“Damn, she got that fucking far?” That’s halfway across the country. Not
only that, it’s a small town. I was sure she’d go somewhere closer or to a
big city.
“Been there two weeks.”
“I’ll be damned.” I flip the folder open. Her picture is paper-clipped to the
first page on the top corner. I pull it off, an unexplained urge hitting me to
run my fingers over it.
She’s a tiny thing, but most people are compared to me. Her big green eyes
hold me captive. My heart begins to pound, my mind starting to buzz like a
hive of bees has been set loose inside it.
