“Your story on the villagers here in the province?”
He stared into my eyes. I used my many years of practice to lie.
“Yes, that story. Why else would I be here?”

“Get out of here before I change my mind and fly you out of here over the enemy for the fuck of it.”
I stood and saluted, which he hated.
Outside, I saw Cooper standing a few feet away.
“How did it go?” he asked.
“He’s making me leave a week early.”
He stared at me like he wanted to say something.
“Spit it out,” I said. “I’m running out of time.”
“There’s things going on here you don’t know about.”
“Yeah? Tell me more.”
“I can’t right now.”
“Fine. I’ll ask Max and some of the others.”
“You need to stay away from Max.”
“I do?”
He nodded.
“He’s not a good guy.”
“I have to decide that on my own,” I said stepping away.
He put a hand on my shoulder.
“Jade, wait…”
I spun around. He stared into my eyes.
“What is it?” I asked, lips barely moving.
“Just be careful, okay? Afghanistan is a rough country.”
“I’ll be fine,” I said then turned and walked away.
Fucking men always trying to control me.
He was hot, but only hot enough for a possible one-night stand.
