Only she knew he was still alivealive and basking in Zoe Young’s warm embrace

Before she could finish, the iron gate was kicked with a thunderous crash

Adrian Graham stood drenched in sweat, blocking the doorway. Mud still clung to his combat boots from field training, his chest heaving violently

In his arms, Zoe sobbed pitifully, her voice echoing through the corridor

Graham, reeking of gunpowder

His eyes were bloodshot, his uniform damp with dew, clearly fresh from training

Why did you have to hurt Zoe Young?He grabbed her shoulders roughly. The baby almost didn’t make it. I sat up with her all night to keep her stable.” 

Liana jerked away and walked on in silence

He finally noticed the suitcase

She watched as his dark green military jeep vanished into the mist

Then she turned and walked to the opposite platformtoward the train that would take her to the border

To where Miles Lawson waited
