Chapter 119

A few weeks after receiving the nano injections-and after hours of intense training to test the new limits of their bodies-they got called in front of their commanding officer, but he wasn't alone.

Anastasia clacked her heels and executed a crisp salute, a move aped by Seth, because before them stood a man with stars and bars, lots of them. Only an idiot didn't show proper respect to a general, especially one with a cold, piercing gaze that said he'd have no problem demoting their asses and have them shoveling out latrines.
