Chapter 14
Myles walked out of the locker room sore, pissed, and tired. That combination did not go well together. He was on a short fuse. In the last three days, SWAT had gone out on four missions. He didn’t know what was going on in the city.
There was a reason for this.
He headed toward the exit. He was going to attempt to make it home and get a few hours of shut-eye.
Zain and Iker had chosen to stay and nap in one of the bunker rooms. Ash, Declan, and Mac all had women at home waiting for them. They would be headed out in a minute. Myles couldn’t stomach the domestic chatter between the guys and opted to leave now.
What waited for him was his king-size bed and massive pillows. They were currently calling his name.
To go home and have Roxxy lying across his bed, naked and waiting for him…
Shit.
Slow down, man.
Myles wasn’t one to have a relationship, so this was foreign territory for him.
Well tonight, he may not have Roxxy waiting in his bed for him, but he’d have the next best thing.
FaceTime.
“Burton!” a voice shouted out behind him.
Myles turned and saw Reeves striding toward him with a furious expression. His partner, Cruz, was right behind him.
“What is it, Reeves?” He adjusted the duffle bag strap on his shoulder.
“I’m going to kick your ass.”
Myles let go of his duffle bag, uncaring that it landed on the floor. Reeves had another think coming if he thought he could take on Myles.
“Watch what you say, Reeves. I might take that as a real threat,” he growled. Myles grew tense as Reeves approached. He had about a good four inches and around thirty pounds on the man.
“Why didn’t I get chosen to move forward? This is my second time trying out. I did everything that was recommended.” Reeves stopped in front of Myles.
“Come on, man. Let’s go walk it off,” Cruz said, grabbing Reeves by the arm.
“Get off me.” Reeves snatched his arm back. He turned to Myles with hatred brimming in his eyes. “I want Burton to explain to me the reason I didn’t get to move forward.”
“Back up off me, Reeves,” Myles warned. He really didn’t feel like ending up getting his ass chewed out by the captain for knocking Reeves out. The suspension would not be worth it.
“Or what? If you hadn’t had had your eyes on the auditor bitch, maybe you would have seen my skills.”
“What the fuck did you just say?” Myles stepped forward.
Reeves had crossed the line.
“I mean, she was a nice piece of ass to have around, but you’re fucking with my career.” Reeves stepped closer. He pressed his pointer finger against Myles’s chest.
Myles knocked Reeves’s finger off him. He didn’t take his eyes off the asshole.
“Don’t touch me.” His voice dipped low. He could feel his rage rising. No one would speak ill of Roxxy.
No one.
“What the hell is going on over here?” Mac stormed out of the locker room with Declan and Ash right behind him.
