ESCAPE

General Swallow glanced at Taylor. ““Now it leads us to your father. While they tortured the hell out of him, one American woman did everything she could to save him. Her name, Jill Scholten. She had been shipped over to Afghanistan through your father’s sex trafficking ring. The woman told Reb everything during several conversations, and he promised her he would get her out of there. Reb thought your father’s organization had raped her and killed her, so he resigned from the Marine Corps and went after your father.”

Swallow hesitated. “She’s not dead.”

EVIL MOUNTAIN

Reb started to say something when they saw the bear, and it wasn’t just any bear.

“Big bear,” Khanty said.

They watched as the bear raised up on its haunches. The brown bear stood at least ten feet high. “Shit,” Reb said to himself. The Mansi started throwing their spears at it from a distance. The spears weren’t even close. They spun around to run away.

“Stop.”

They stopped and stared at Reb. “The bear will kill you.”

Khanty spoke up, “No, it won’t.”

They screamed as the bear charged after them. The dogs growled at the bear, and the Mansi backed away.

Reb thought to himself, “If we get out of this, I’ll jump in the damn river naked.”

The bear threw one of the Mansi aside. Reb ran over to him to make sure he was alive. Dead. Reb glanced up as the dog assigned to him went after the bear. The bear went toward the dog. The dog stood its ground while the other dogs and Mansi scrambled further back.

The bear moved closer to the dog. Reb ran over to the bear and shoved his spear into its back. The bear let out a roar that shook the ground. He came after Reb in a hurry. Reb tripped as the bear gained ground on him.

MESSAGES
Taylor pointed the weapon at the professor. Tears streamed down her face at seeing Reb hanging like he did. His face beaten and swollen and bruised. Violence marked his whole body. Was he even alive?
“Don’t think what you’re thinking. He is the strongest person you know,” Chloe whispered.
“Why, professor?”
The professor spun around. “Back off, Taylor. I’ll kill him.”
“Why? What did he ever do to you?”
“What did he do me? Plenty. He screwed my mission to find those damn ciphers. He got me drummed out of the Marine Corps.”
“That’s not his fault you were acting like an idiot.”
“I’m telling you to back off or I’ll shoot him.”
“That will never happen, Flood. I’ll never allow you or anyone to take Reb from me again.”
Flood snorted. “How did you get in here by the way? It must have been that damned Loki. I should have killed him when I had the chance. If nothing else, he finally put your father out of my misery.
Loki has been filling Reb up with some concoction that prevented him from answering my questions. Now that I got rid of Loki, it will just take a bit to revive Reb.”
“I asked you to step away, Flood. I’m not asking you again.”

LOST YOUTH

Reb glanced over at Orville. “Dump him.”

“What? Wait. I know a way to get up there without being seen.”

“Start talking,” Reb said.

The man explained about a hidden door behind a group of rocks which was used as a quick escape route.

“Are we done with him, boss?”

Reb nodded. Orville pulled the man up, then Reb knocked him out.

Reb gazed at Orville. “Here, help me tie him and gag him.”

Orville frowned. “I liked the idea of dumping him over the ledge.”

TARGETED

Assassins are coming after the McKittricks and their closest friends.

Why? It’s up to Reb and Taylor to figure it out before the lives of those who are close to them are taken.

Targeted follows the McKittricks into countries in the Pacific Rim as they try to find ways to help the United States prosper as well as protect their loved ones from those who want to destroy the nation.
