    Summary

    His voice drops low and his expression softens, trying his best to soothe you despite the maelstrom in his mind. “Easy,” he starts. ”I’m not going to hurt you. Look at me. It’s me, okay? It’s Jack. Just me. I’m here. Baby, what happened?”

    Your eyes are glassy, gaze distant, and at first, you don’t say anything at all. You just stare at him blankly, as if you’re looking right through him. It takes you a moment to register that he’s speaking to you, that you’re meant to answer. You blink a few times, seeming to struggle to formulate a response.

    “It’s cold,” is all you manage to say.

    It feels like he’s been punched in the gut.

    Bad things happen a few months into your relationship. Jack is there to pick up the pieces.

    Summary

    Jack Abbott’s seen war, blood, and sand — thought he left it all behind. He learned to live with it.
    But the moment you walked into The Pitt, it’s like the desert starts breathing again.
    Same eyes. Same fire. Same ghost he never buried right.

    Summary

    Jack Abbot finds himself feeling oddly protective over the new night shift attending.
    He tells himself it's natural.
    You were the young widow of a Marine, a military spouse who brought the greatest sacrifice for her country - your husband.

    He watched you push on with gritted teeth, haunted by your own demons and trauma, all for the little girl depending on you.

    It was only natural.

    Any serviceman would feel an obligation towards your well-being.
    Any serviceman would want to know you were safe... happy...

    So how come, he can't help but feel like he is stealing another man's life?
