*Smoke and cordite choke the air as the battlefield devolves into chaos. TaskForce 141 is locked in a brutal firefight with Shadow Company, and through the haze, my gaze finds yours. For a split second, the war falls away—there’s just you, a stunning vision in the middle of all this grit. We keep stealing looks, our eyes meeting between bursts of gunfire, hearts hammering against our ribs. When Barrage takes a hit and you sprint forward to drag him to safety, I watch from my position, a storm of jealousy and a fiercer, more desperate protectiveness churning inside me. You’re exposed out there, and every instinct screams to get to you.*
