Aegis Group Lepta Team Chapter 101: Yvonne
YVONNE WASN'T FAMILIAR WITH the structure of the secure server. It was slow going, but so far she'd known all of her brother's security questions at every checkpoint. It was nice to know that he didn't have blind access to everything after a single log-in. She was disappointed that there was a way around the two-step authentication process. Then again, being able to get through that with an answer about ice cream was potentially saving their lives.Their.Plural.Her and the baby.It was crazy how fast her thinking was changing. Like she'd been absorbed into a team or something."How much longer?" the group's leader demanded. His patience was beginning to wear thin."I'm getting closer. Want to watch?" She glanced up at him standing in the doorway."No." He turned and stalked out of sight.She kept at it.The codes would be stored deep in their system under layers of security. She knew they changed, but not how often. With any luck, the security system had alerted The
Aegis Group Lepta Team Chapter 102: Nolan
NOLAN HAULED BACK AND with Vaughn at his side they kicked the front door to the condo open together.Riley darted past them, gun up, and fired, laying down cover.The patio doors were shattered and Nolan caught a glimpse of Brenden and Grant at the rear of the house.The office.Nolan stepped in and whirled to his right, just in time to see a masked man send Yvonne to the floor. She lay crumpled in a heap, not moving."No," Nolan snarled.He lifted his gun and fired, once, twice. The bullets went wide, sinking into the back wall. He rushed the desk, vaulting over it and kicking out at the man. He landed between the man and Yvonne, swinging his left fist, forcing the man back another step.Nolan fired once. Then again and again. Three shots, close range.The masked man hit the wall and went down. Nolan closed in, gun up and secured one wrist then the other before checking for wounds.A vest protected the man's vital organs.He'd live to face a jury for these crimes.
Aegis Group Lepta Team Chapter 103: Samuel, Yvonne
Saturday. The Madison, Washington, DC.SAMUEL WAS GOING TO pull this off.He checked his reflection in the mirror, ensuring the stack of towels concealed his gun.The men already upstairs had confirmed that there were only two cops on the floor where the family was staying.This would work."Everyone is in position," Karuki said."On the move," Samuel whispered and headed out of the staff area and toward the service elevator.The remaining team echoed Samuel's comment.In five minutes they'd all converged on the all. Two wrangled a maid trolley. One had a luggage cart.The two cops sat outside the suite, looking at their phones.Too easy."Now," Samuel whispered.He dropped the towels and lifted the gun.Two shots rang out from behind him, the bullets hitting their targets. Both cops toppled over. The silencers made the shots quieter, but there was no mistaking the sound to the trained ear.Samuel reached the suite door, knelt and pulled a keycard from th
Aegis Group Lepta Team Chapter 104: Yvonne
Yvonne crossed her legs and sat up a bit straighter. She picked at one plate after the other while listening to the sounds from the shower.She wanted to stay in this bubble where she could pretend it was all perfectly okay.The bathroom door squeaked.She held her breath and watched as inch by inch, Nolan came into view.He wore clean sweatpants and a black T-shirt that molded to those arms of his. He dragged a towel over his hair, one eye peering at her."Food good?" he asked."Yeah." She set her fork down, no longer hungry.He tossed the towel over the back of a chair then crossed to the bedside. He perched next to her, picked up her fork and stabbed a bit of the pasta. She twisted her hands in the sheets, both hungry for his nearness and dreading what came next."Are we going to talk?" she blurted when the pressure in her head grew too much."Sure." He set the fork down then twisted toward her, stretching his left arm along the headboard. "I don't know where to st

Saturday. Private Recovery Facility, Bethesda, MD.NOLAN MET GRANT AND the others in the lobby of the recovery facility. He'd practically walked a hold in the carpet runner, his mind ping-ponging from the paused conversation he'd been having with Yvonne to the disappearance of her family."Do we know where they are?" Nolan asked.His gaze skipped over the guys.Melody was missing. She'd been left with the family. He had no doubt that it was Samuel Ito come calling to protect himself. He'd hit at the perfect moment, too."No. Zain and Gavin are on it. The FBI want answers." Grant stopped toe-to-toe with Nolan. "We need to know what's really going on here. No more lies."Yvonne knew, but she was still fragile."Come on." Nolan turned and strode toward the elevators."How is she?""How do you think?"They filed into the elevator. Nolan used their code to gain access to the floor. The nurses on duty gave him the stink eye, but they'd been doing that since Yvonne had

Saturday. Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport, Washington, DC.NOLAN HAD THOUGHT AFTER putting Yvonne into the ambulance that today had gotten as bad as it could get.He'd been wrong.Driving around the airport knowing he'd left Yvonne pissed off and hurt was worse and compounded by fact they all knew her family might very well not come out of this alive."FBI is calling again," Grant said via the headset."We should use them." Nolan kept his gaze on the street. It was complete bullshit their only possible action was driving around aimlessly waiting for a lead."And tell them what?" Vaughn glanced at him. "How long would it take to get them up to speed?""Fuck. FBI again.""Answer it," Nolan said."I am." Grant cleared his throat. "Hello? ... Yes, Agent Brooks, I-what?"Nolan's muscles tensed and he eased to a stop at the curb, every fiber of his being wanting good news."Ito's at the airport, private hangar." Urgency vibrated Grant's voice.Nolan twist
Aegis Group Lepta Team Chapter 107: Yvonne
Sunday. Private Recovery Facility, Bethesda, MD.THE ACHES AND PAINS had set in. Yvonne's head hurt. The night nurse had encouraged her to take some pain pills. Yvonne had declined. It was already too hard to stay awake.She turned the faucet on and splashed cold water on her face. The icy needles shocked her awake again. She straightened and looked herself over in the mirror.Boy, she was a sight.The lump on her head was going down, thanks to whatever miracle cream the nurses had given her. There wasn't anything that could be done about the bruising. It looked far worse than it felt. The electrical burns on the other hand hurt far worse. But she would heal. The physical hurts always did.It was the ones she couldn't see that worried her.Nolan hadn't called her back. There was no word except for a short phone call from Dad. She had no idea what happened where they all were. With the early morning hours creeping onward, they were probably sleeping.Yvonne turned the l
Aegis Group Lepta Team Chapter 108: Nolan
NOLAN CLOSED HIS EYES and breathed in the scent of shampoo, soap and disinfectant.She hadn't tossed him out. She'd listened to him. Maybe he'd get her to forgive him, too?He'd never forget staring into her wide, fearful eyes right before he'd shut the closet door on her.I love you.He bent his head and kissed her brow again, so damn grateful everything had worked out.She tipped her chin up. Her hand rose to cup the back of his neck. His whole world shrunk to her lips, the sweetest ones he'd ever kissed. When he would have pulled back, she shifted closer, holding him tighter. All he wanted was her in his arms, his life, his heart. He was powerless against this tiny woman.Yvonne slid onto his lap, her fingers weaving through his hair.This could get out of hand fast. As much as his cock wanted to sink into her, there was more to discuss. He groaned and broke the kiss, burying his face in her hair.She laid her head on his shoulder and wrapped her arms around him.H
