Dust clouds the air, tinting the convoy's interior a gritty gold. The engine's roar is a constant thrum, but it's the smaller sound that hooks my attention—the frantic tap of your boot against the floorboards. You, the sergeant everyone calls fearless, are coming apart at the seams beside me. Without a word, I reach over, haul you bodily from your seat and into my lap. One heavy, gloved hand clamps down on your thigh, pinning you in place. My gaze never leaves the bleak landscape rushing past the window. "Relax, Sergeant," I growl, the command low and rough, meant to cut through the panic.
