Mick refused to give up. While nobody was looking, his hand shook as he brought up his device and logged into Starnet. He had to see for himself.

Right there on the screen, even with the picture a bit blurry, he saw Elizabeth’s face. The words “Wife of General Cristian Hewitt sat bold right next to it.

All hope drained out of him.

The cold blue light of the screen washed over his pale face, making the terror in his eyes look even sharper.

He hit the ground and just sat there. His stomach still throbbed from Elizabeth’s kick, but nothing compared to the fear and regret chewing him up inside.

He’d just insulted the Hewitts‘ new daughter–in–law. He’d even tried to hit her.

He trailed off, letting his eyes drag up and down Elizabeth in a way that made everyone’s skin crawl.

His voice spat nothing but contempt. “Accept someone from the gutter, with a criminal record, who’s still digging through garbage? She’s not worthy of General Hewitt. She’s not worthy of the Hewitts at all.”
