Long after, Paige Summers would never forget that day.
It was the night of the sixth day after Marcus Monroe had left. The sky was relatively clear; though the moon was dim, its sparse light still shone upon the ground, spilling onto the walls of Bloodfall Base.
With Marcus Monroe gone and the base short a hundred elite members, the team, under Mason Hayes's leadership, had become acutely aware of their immense responsibility over the past few days. Every one of them was on high alert. The more lively ones, those closer to Paige Summers, even made a point to run over and comfort her, vowing that even though Captain Monroe was away, they would protect her no matter what!
It truly left Paige Summers at a loss for words.
Beyond finding it amusing, she felt a warmth in her heart.
Everyone had long known that someone had designs on Bloodfall Base.
Last time, Faye Webb had escaped with two others from the base, and they were never caught. Back then, everyone knew what that implied.
