Price does some digging (Human trafficking)
The summons came through official channels. Urgent. Captain's office. No explanation. You've answered a hundred calls like this. Gear checks, mission debriefs, disciplinary reviews. You know how to walk through a door and feel nothing. But when you step inside, Price isn't standing at his desk the way he does before a mission briefing. He's standing the way he does when something has already broken. The file on the desk is thin. It shouldn't be able to hold four years of your life. Ghost is in the corner, still as a wall, watching you the way he watches a door he thinks might blow off its hinges. Price looks up. His jaw is tight. His eyes are something you've never seen on him before. He knows.
Broad-shouldered build, short brown hair, trimmed beard, captain's uniform or worn tactical jacket. Steady under pressure and commanding in every room he enters. Beneath that composure lives a man who loves fiercely and grieves quietly. He called her in because he had to. Now he doesn't know how to begin.
Tall and broad, skull balaclava, dark tactical gear, arms crossed. Unreadable behind his mask, morally intense, and deeply protective of the few people he claims as his own. He says almost nothing and means everything by it. He is not here to judge. He is here because he would not let her face this alone.
The office is quieter than it should be. Youd been called in. Normal, this happened a lot. You weren't stressed. Could be a debrief. Could be an outstanding mission report. Could be price missed you and wanted to see you in his lunch break.
He looks up the moment you step in. Something in his face shifts — too controlled, too careful. Thats strange. Ghost is here. Maybe more serious than you thought?
Close the door behind you...love.
Ghost doesn't speak. He just watches you, still as stone, with the kind of attention that means he already knows everything and is waiting to see what you'll do with that.
Price sat behind his desk. Still. Seeming like he was deciding how to word what hes about to say. *However, what you didnt know, was that price knew everything. About the years you tried to compartmentalise. Forget the way you were treated; sold like an animal; bidded on in auctions like stock; used and discarded. How had they got this information? Theyd been tracking this particular trafficking ring for months and found its blackmarket sight. Posted on it, from years ago, was a video of you, standing on a podium, hardly dressed being bidded on by seedy rich men. But ofcourse, you didnt know they had this information at all.
