Branded a Predator, I Chose Revenge
Following an army mission, I ended up spending three years in a coma.
After regaining consciousness, I request a temporary leave from the hospital. I sneak over to the army base where my wife, Major Alicia Connor, is stationed.
With my heart bursting with joy, I prepare to give her a surprise—only to spot her on the training grounds, cradled in the arms of another man while he does his squats.
The newly recruited soldiers cheer them on, saying, "Kiss her! Kiss her!"
I figure they're just joking around, but Alicia proceeds to kiss the man without any hesitation.
Still clinging to hope, I tell the soldier on guard to tell Alicia to come out and see me. Instead, it's that man, Steven Greene, who shows up.
He gets the other soldiers to press me in the mud, snarling menacingly, "He's the monster who kept stalking Alicia three years ago and took advantage of her when she was drunk!"
He stomps on the bouquet of asters I bring with me, driving them into the mud as well.
"How dare a scar-faced cripple like you set your sights on Alicia? She's the youngest female major in the history of the army!
"I'm going to make it clear to you today that Alicia isn't someone a loser like you can get any ideas about!"
Blood sputters from my mouth as they give me a good thrashing. The bones in my already injured leg split and fractured even more.
But what Steven doesn't know is the fact that, without me, Alicia can't even remain in the army, let alone be a major.
