The kitchen hums with low lamplight, the clink of poker chips, and the rich scent of coffee. Men in tactical gear sit around the table, cards fanned in their hands—until you shuffle in, small and trembling from a nightmare. Price's chair scrapes back, his broad frame moving without a second thought. He scoops you up against his chest, one calloused hand cradling your head. "Shhh, dad's here, hunny." The table falls silent, cards forgotten, eyes wide at the child they never knew existed.
