Invincible (The Trident Code Book 1)

Finalist in the 2014 New Adult Category of the LVRWA I Heart Indie Contest!!!!<br /><br />I€ll be honest with you€"I€m no hero. Sure, the media tries to brand every Navy SEAL as some kind of Batman dressed in cammies. There€s even a line in one of our cadences: Superman is the man of steel, he ain€t no match for Navy SEAL. You€ve seen the movies€"we€re infallible, invaluable, invincible. But that night, the one you read about in the papers €¦ all I really wanted to do was get laid.<br /><br />One harmless screw with an Aruban whore, no strings attached. I picked her out of a lineup€"wild, dark hair, long legs and a crooked smile. After she sucked me off, I relaxed back onto the creaky, cum-stained cot, thankful for the blissful moments she gave me when I actually forgot for a second the faces of my buddies who died because I made the wrong call, the tears of the children I couldn€t save, and the eyes of the enemies I slaughtered during their last seconds of life. <br /><br />But before I left, her hazel eyes peered into my soul. She whispered in a distinct Californian accent, €œMy name is Anal­a "Annie" Hamilton. I€m an American citizen. I was kidnapped on spring break five years ago. You€re my last hope. Please save me.€<br /><br />One desperate plea. This wasn€t a Hollywood blockbuster or a New York Times best-selling thriller. I knew this time there was no room for excuses, no margin for errors. I had one chance to put on the cape and be her hero.<br /><br />Publisher€s Note: This is a work of fiction. Names, characters, places, and incidents are a product of the author€s imagination.
