Trust Me, I Hate You

By Romeo Alexander

Sean:

We lost Clint. My team, my responsibility.

I see it every night. Same details, same moment, on repeat.

Then they send Aidan to take his place and I want him gone from day one. He doesn't back down. He doesn't break. And he has no idea when to quit.

My brain screams at me to walk away. I yank Aidan toward me and kiss him hard.

I don't have a good explanation for it.

Aidan:

I walk into a team that looks at me like I'm standing in a dead man's spot. I didn't ask for that. I can't fix it.

What I can do is not break.

Sean keeps pushing. I keep pushing back. At some point he asks if I'm poking the bear again.

I tell him I'm not really into bears. That men in uniform are more my problem specifically.

He laughs. I think that's when everything changes.

Then the mission turns lethal and I realize I can't lose him too.

"Don't you fucking die on us," I tell him.

I mean it more than he knows.

Enemies-to-lovers military romance with grief, found family, and a hard-won HEA. Fort Dale. Standalone. No cliffhangers.
