He lost love because of jealousy.
And now, he’d pay for that.
For the rest of his life.
Chapter Nine
En Route
Marine’s Homes
Wednesday
One P.M.
Driving in the blacked-out Hummer, Maura was behind the wheel as they headed toward one of the dead Marines’ homes. They needed to nose around, and then go from there.
At that very moment, Rogue, Boone, and Merry were trying to find the two other Marines—the living ones, so that they could have a little‘talk’.
They had their addresses from intel, but there was no doubt in their minds that they would have bugged out if they thought they were in danger.
They were doing some creative hacking to watch security cameras all around those homes to see if they were there.
Well, Rogue was since that was his thing. So far, neither man had shown up, but they would keep an eye on the homes.

In.
Case.
Unfortunately for them, this mess made it more difficult to find them.
Marines played hide and seek better than any other branch of the military.
Could they be found?
Well, with MATE and some hacking, that was a possibility.
They’d find out.
What they knew was that it would be all about them working as a team to do it.
Everyone was working this case.
Thank God for Zayn and Eve coming in to give them a hand. It was going to be all-hands-on-deck.
As they drove, Jagger was staring out the window, and there was silence in the back.
“Well, I love when we go out and no one says shit,” Zayn admitted. “There’s nothing like that awkward silence to make me feel all happy and giddy.”
Jinx was beside him, and she shrugged.
“When they want to talk, they’ll talk. Why do you feel the need to fill silence with chatter? Would you like to talk about your childhood?”
He stared at her.
“You’re just lucky that I’m afraid of you,” he admitted, amused.
