Savanna kissed Mack and he held her in his arms and cried. She looked at her husband and Mack's son, Mica. He just stared at his father. Mack released Savanna and said. "I can't face you. It breaks my heart to tell you I haven't found your sister yet. It has been seven months since she was abducted. She has had our baby by now, he should be two months old now if it came on time." Tears ran down his cheeks.
"OH! Mack, I know you have done every thing humanly possible. I know you will never stop looking. Please rest and relax a little. Here is someone who is dying to see you."
A little form rushed at him screaming, "Uncle Mack, Grandpa Mack, I love you. Please hold me tight." Mack bent down and picked Sue Ann up in his arms. She held his face in her hands and looked at him carefully. She ran her little hand along the gray hair above his temples.
"Grandpa, your hair is getting all gray, you look different. Aunt Ginny is going to be very angry with you if you don't take care of your self. She loves you a whole lot. She said she loved you this much." The girl spread her arms as far as she could. He looked in her eyes and said, "Sweetie, I love Aunt Ginny with all my heart. I really do." Mack put Sue Ann down and took Bobby from his son's arms. Bobby laughed happily and reached for Mack. Mack held the boy close and then handed him back to Mica.
Mica said, "Dad will you have dinner tonight with Savanna and I?"
"I'd love to Mica, but I have a scout scheduled to check out a Hacienda about 60 miles south of here."
"Is Mike going with you?"
"No. He has been on plenty of scouts with me. He is the best I've ever seen at sneaking around. It's like he is invisible and he never makes a sound. He has family obligations and I don't want him to go anymore. He needs to be with Cookie, Mikey and the baby."
"I'll go with you Dad."
"I'm sure you are a good sneak, I only have a guide for one man tonight. I'll be fine. I'll see you guys in the morning."
Mack picked up a small daypack and walked out the door.
Mica watched him go. He looked at Savanna, "What do you think?"
"I never expected to say this about you father. He is a tragic figure. He and I were talking the day before our wedding. He asked me how I felt about marrying another military man. I told him it was very scary for me. I lost one husband and I told him I didn't know if I could survive losing another. He looked at me and said, "I know I could never live without Ginny, she is my life. God! I hope he never gives up hope."
"Savanna, Honey, I am not sure he can survive another month like this. I'm not sure at all. Did you see the bags and dark circles under his eyes? I'll bet he has lost thirty or forty pounds."
"I know, I had a short talk with Cookie when we first got here. She thinks he is the greatest man she has ever met. She says Mike loves him like a father and says your Dad feels no physical pain, if he does hurt himself badly he will bandage it and then proceed to ignore the pain."
"Yeah, I'm afraid he'll get hurt bad scouting at night and not put anything on it until morning. I don't know if he could shake of a bad infection as run down as he is. I think he has a bleeding ulcer too from what Cookie tells me. His maid finds bloody underwear in the trash. Sometimes I think he is trying to kill himself."
"It's so damn sad. They were so damned happy together. Ginny was happier the she had been in her whole life."
Ginny sat on her bed holding her son as he suckled at her full breast. She glanced up when she heard the door open. Jose stood and watched her. He smiled, "Sweetheart, I need you, I believe it is time we can start to have sex again. Your belly is as flat as a board now. I want you tonight. Are you ready?"
"Yes I am. I can deny you no longer, you have been very patient."
"I will reward you with a shopping trip to the states for a whole new wardrobe. We will go to San Antonio. It has some nice shops and several Wal-Mart's; I think someone told me they have seventeen of them. You can get you baby supplies there."
"Thank you Jose, I need a lot of things."
"I want you to be happy." He turned and walked out the door. She looked out the window; it was too early to see Mack's star. That is how she thought of it now. Would she ever see him again?
Jose entered her room that night after she had little Isaiah asleep in his crib. He walked to her as she stood in front of a mirror brushing her hair. He stood behind her and reached around and caressed her breasts through the thin material of her gown. She wore a nursing bra under the gown. She put the brush down and turned in his arms to kiss him. He kissed her hungrily, his tongue speared into her mouth and searched for hers. His hands moved over her shoulders stripping the gown from her body. She felt him unfasten the back of her bra. He pulled back and looked at her totally nude body and grinned, "You are more beautiful than ever." He pushed her back onto the bed and followed close behind her.
She closed her eyes and prayed for forgiveness as her body responded to his passionate assault. He leaned over her and pressed his lips to hers. Then he moved kissing and licking across her chest to her breasts. He suckled hungrily at her breast. It felt very good. After a while she gently moved him to the other breast. Ginny didn't want him to drain all her milk. She had had plenty for Isaiah but not enough to satisfy the baby and Jose. She finally pushed him away. He kissed down to her belly and she hoped he would kiss on down to her pussy. He had never done it before and she had never asked him to give her head, he had never requested it from her. He just liked plain vanilla sex. Missionary or doggy was his whole repertoire. Jose moved between her legs and begin kissing her lips again. She reached down and pulled his cock to her pussy. He slowly and gently pressed forward. She felt his pubes against hers. He stopped fully inside her and asked if she were having any pain. She said she was fine and smiled at him. This was the first time he had ever shown any real concern about her. She wondered who was thawing out, he or she. She shuddered and thought of Mack. He had been the perfect lover, would she ever have him again.
Reality hit her as she felt the start of an orgasm. She had learned how to press back against Jose so that his thrusts stimulated her clitoris and brought on an orgasm. It was not like with Mack when she could lay back and relax and savor the joy of continuous thunderous orgasms one after the other until they ran together.
She knew that Jose would be through in a few minutes. She was surprised when he asked her to turn over on her knees. She complied and he moved behind her and his cock slipped into her vagina again. He started thrusting into her very rapidly. He reached under her and begin rubbing her clit with his fingers. It felt damned good. She was surprised when felt a strong orgasm coming. He was slamming against her ass now as he fingered her clitoris rapidly. She couldn't help the words of encouragement that came from her lips. "Fuck me, Baby, fuck me. I love it. Jose, it feels so good. Fuck me. Yes! Yes! Ohhhhh! Yesssssss!"
He fell off of her and pulled her down with him. He held her tightly to him gently kissing her neck. She moved back against him and felt comfort in his arms.
She awoke when Isaiah cried to be fed. She went into the nursery and changed him, and then she carried him to the bedroom and sat in the rocker. She gently rocked as he fed at her breast. She closed her eyes then jerked awake. She looked out the window; a cloud covered Mack's star.
Tears rolled down her cheeks and she softly cried. It was the first time she had gone to sleep with out praying to see Mack. Waves of guilt swept over her. For the first time she felt she had cheated on Mack. She prayed now to her God for forgiveness for breaking the vow she made before he and her husband. She felt no relief. The guilt hung heavy on her. She hugged her baby to her breast and whispered a prayer for the strength to be worthy of him. She looked at her bed. Jose was no longer there. He had tried to sleep with her before but always left when anything awoke him. She smiled and kissed her son, "Thank you Isaiah, for waking him up."
Mike watched as Mack struggled to get up from his chair. Mack grinned at him for a second, I'm getting to where I stiffen up after I set for a while, must be old age catchin' up with me." Mike saw the blood stain on the seat of Mack's jeans. 'They'll be soaking in peroxide tonight.' He thought to himself. Mack went into the bathroom. The phone rang. Mike answered it, "General McDermott's office, Lieutenant Mahoney speaking."
"WHAT! Give me that again. We are on our way. Are all the police and the military and the FBI alerted? Great, cross your fingers."
Mike ran to the bathroom door, "General, we have a hot sighting. A helicopter is on its way to pick us up. Then we catch a jet to San Antonio."
The door flew open with Mack pulling on a fresh pair of jeans.
"Where was she seen?"
San Antonio. She is in a Wal-Mart with the guy who kidnapped her. They have a small army on its way. They are not letting anyone in the store and are trying to clear out all the customers they can."
"Damn, That's an hour or two away."
"Right, we are going as fast as we can. Cookie and Savanna will meet us at the plane. They should be there by now. Mica is with them. There is a babysitter with the kids."
When they arrived at the Wal-Mart the ladies were left outside. They were told it was pretty much a stand off at the moment. They entered and were rushed to the security office. They could see the whole scene on a large screen TV. They heard a voice on the speaker system in the store.
"Please lay down your weapons. You are completely surrounded. There is no escape. We have your vehicles and their drivers in custody. We also have you aircraft in our possession. There is no escape; all of the shoppers you see are our people.
Mack's eyes were fixed on Ginny. He saw her trying to get a baby out of a stroller. She was also covering the baby with her own body. One of the Sheriff's Deputies grabbed Ginny and the baby and pulled them clear. She ran back and screamed, "Don't shoot. Please don't shoot. Jose put your guns down. You don't stand a chance. Please Darling, don't fight."
They saw the man and his bodyguards put their weapons on the floor. People rushed in and put the men on the floor and cuffed them. Mica saw Mack go out the door and followed him. Ginny was lying on the floor crying. He stopped and looked at her then walked to the stroller and looked at the child. Mack knelt beside the stroller and stared at the baby. He stepped back as Deputies swarmed over the area. The child was returned to its mother. Savanna and Cookie rushed to Ginny. They screamed and held and kissed each other. Mike and Mica were with them. Ginny cried and kissed and hugged each of them. "Where is Mack?" she asked.
"He was right here a minute ago looking at the baby."
"No! I didn't see him, I only saw a thin white haired man looking at Isaiah."
"That was Dad", said Mica.
