Chapter 42

BLAZE

FOR ME, adjusting to life as a civilian hadn't been easy. I joined the Navy right out of school, and it was all I recognized. I had freedoms I hadn't before and it felt... odd. To tell the truth, the call to serve my country still lingered, but other duties took precedence.

I'll never forget the day I got the call that rocked my world. My team had just come in from a grueling training mission and I wanted nothing more than to crash in bed. A sense of excitement buzzed through me at the thought of my meeting the next day to talk about my upcoming contract with the Corps. I'd overheard Yasmin tell some of the guys she was getting out, starting her life as a civilian. That surprised me because I figured she'd always be around to stick it to me. I'd been wrong.
