Three days later 

Chapter

The mission had just wrapped up, and I could 

hear the guys on the comms teasing Jake 

Foster

Hey, Jake, take it easy on poor Brittany

Don’t break the bed again.” 

I was just a little pent up, needed to blow off some steam,Jake chuckled, all casual. Just don’t go running your mouths to the missus.” 

I heard him pull out his phone, and the team 

erupted in knowing laughter

Gotta keep the main squeeze happy before 

you feed the side piece, huh?” 

Right on cue, my phone buzzed

Hearing Jake’s honeyed words about how 

much he missed me sent a chill right through 

  1. me

He had no idea that I was the team’s 

anonymous intel analyst, the one who had his 

back on every single op

The first time he slept with Brittany, I didn’t 

sleep a wink all night

After I hung up with Jake, I dialed another 

number. I’m in. I’ll quit the team and settle 

down.” 

A steady voice answered, Good. Once 

Operation Decapitation is done, I’ll personally 

く 

see you get on that plane.” 

That’s three days from now.” 

Jake and Brittany were still at it on the team 

comms, carrying on like no one else was 

around

The rest of the guys were calling her 

sweetheartand babe,egging them on

I felt numb, my heart sinking lower and lower

Brittany had joined the team three months 

ago

During a mission, she’d been drugged

Jake, being the team leader, took her back to 

his room to watch over her

Three days and nights later, Jake finally 

emerged, looking satisfied

Brittany followed, blushing like crazy

Ever since, Jake always brought Brittany 

along on missions, sharing a room with her 

every night

I knew all this, I really did, but it still stung like 

hell

My hand trembled as I pulled up the feed 

from Jake’s room cam

The HD lens showed him pressing Brittany 

against the window, fogging up the glass

They were all over each other for hours

Finally, Jake pulled away, looking completely 

spent

He headed for the shower, but Brittany tried 

to follow him. He shut her down hard

Stay away from me. I’m going home. Don’t 

want my wife catching a whiff of you.” 

Brittany’s voice was small, her face crumpled

Am I not more important than that clueless 

housewife of yours? I risk my life for you!” 

Jake tilted her chin, a possessive move, but 

the words that came out were cold

What are you? Just a tool for me to get off

Know your place.” 

Tears streamed down Brittany’s face, but 

Jake didn’t even flinch

As he got dressed to leave, he softened his 

tone. What’s the rush? Another mission in 

three days. You’ll be begging for mercy by 

then.” 

He stroked her cheek and walked out

When Jake got home, I was sitting on the 

couch, pretending to read

He smelled strongly of Drakkar Noir, the 

cologne I’d picked out for him

Now, it was just helping him cover his tracks

く 

As he came closer, I caught a whiff of 

something else, something lingering from 

Brittany

No matter how hard he scrubbed, he couldn’t 

wash her away

He wrapped an arm around my waist, his 

other hand sliding up my thigh, sending

clear message

Honey, let’s have a baby.” 

His breath was warm on my neck, and

couldn’t keep up the act any longer

I pushed him away gently and bolted for the 

bathroom

Г 

I scrubbed my skin raw where he’d touched 

me, then leaned against the wall, spent

A baby

I thought about the two pink lines from 

yesterday. I couldn’t help but smile bitterly

The baby Jake had wanted for five years was 

finally on its way

Too bad it was after he’d cheated

I plastered a smile on my face and walked 

out, acting concerned. When do you leave?” 

Three days. Big op.He hesitated, a hint of 

guilt in his voice. Honey, I’m sorry. It’s our 

anniversary that day. I won’t be there.” 

I put my hand on my stillflat stomach and 

said, It’s okay. Just try to get home early.

got you a present.” 

Jake’s face lit up. I’ll be there as soon as

can! Can’t wait to see what you got me!” 

I smiled

I hope you like it

The next morning, Jake woke me up gently

Honey, the team’s having a gettogether at 

headquarters today. Come with me.” 

I passed through security as Jake’s wife

As soon as we walked in, I could hear them 

shooting the breeze

く 

That intel analyst never shows, huh? She’s 

such a mystery.” 

Yeah, she’s like a ghost. We’ve been working 

with her for years, and no one’s ever seen 

her. All we know is she’s a woman.” 

I bet she’s got a thing for the captain. She 

always sends him the intel first.” 

I lowered my head

He was right. I was only involved in this whole 

thing for Jake

The condition for joining the team was 

simple: all intel had to be sent to Jake’s team 

That’s how I found out about his affair

I must have looked a little off

Jake must have thought I was getting mad, he 

quickly shouted at the team

What are you guys talking about?” 

They jumped to their feet, looking nervous

Mrs. Foster! We’re just messing around

Don’t take it the wrong way.”
