Shattered Bonds Between Us
After my father’s death, I decided to divorce my husband, Captain Marcus Hale, and stay in Pine Ridge Village forever.
On the first day, I tricked Marcus into signing the divorce papers.
On the fifth day, I handed in my resignation to my old unit at Fort Haven.
On the seventh day, I cooked a full table of food and said farewell to all my friends.
Frowning, Marcus accused me of making the very meal his childhood sweetheart, Julia Summers, hated. I stood up and raised my glass to toast her.
From this day on, Marcus and I would have nothing more to do with each other.
Half a month later, I saw Marcus returning from a mission in Pine Ridge Village. Only this time, the country evening breeze brought tears to his eyes.
