The Missing
“Assuming all of the people who are missing have been turned,” Christian offered, taking another sip of his coffee.
“Right. So I decided to use the reports to look into individual people, see if I could access them that way.”
“Brilliant. And what did you find out?”
The compliment brought a bit of a blush to her cheeks, but she moved past it, not wanting to let him know she’d taken it that way. “I was able to locate a lot of them, and now my list is close to a hundred.”
“Vampires?”
“Yeah.”
“In that area?”
“Yeah,” she nodded wholeheartedly before taking another swig. “So... I went back and watched as many of their memories of being turned as I could, something I’d like to finish but ran out of time.”
“Well, that’s a lot of turning,” Christian reminded her.
“Exactly. Anyway, most of

“Christian Henry, as I live and breathe. What the hell could you possibly want from me?”Eliza was sitting in a conference room along with several other members of her team, going over a strategy to locate the blonde Vampire from the other night and see if they could bring her down. Mila continued to talk about tactics, and Eliza pretended to listen, but curiosity had the better of her, so when her old pal who’d ended up getting her in a hell of a lot of trouble, popped up on her IAC, she had to find out what he could possibly want.“Well, if it isn’t the Rambo of Guardians. That video everyone’s been passing around is pretty impressive. When did you learn the type of skills it takes to end six Vampires all by yourself, and the long-lasting kind, for that matter?”She tried not to laugh since it likely wouldn’t fit with whatever Mila was currently talking about. “I don’t know.

The Clandestine Saga Vacation
Hannah was sitting in her office, going over the data Cassidy had passed along to them at the meeting the week before. While she didn’t doubt the information was valuable, she just couldn’t justify using it as a reason to launch a full-scale attack on another continent before Aaron and Cadence got back. A glance at the calendar in her IAC confirmed they’d be back in five days—less than a week. Even though her own reports told her the situation was growing worse, she didn’t think it was bad enough to move in, not yet. Especially now that Mila seemed to be making headway with some of the worst offenders.A knock at the door brought her out of her thoughts. She set the paperwork aside. “Come in.” Not many people came to her office, not unless they wanted to lounge on her sofa and unburden themselves, which was fine, but most of the time, if people were in this building it was to head upstairs to the real bosses’ office. Today, howe
The Clandestine Saga Crazy Ideas
Brandon pushed past Elliott into the kitchen and grabbed a bottle of water out of the fridge, downed it, and tossed the plastic into the recycling that also needed taken out.“Okay. What’s going on? You’ve been bumming around here for the last couple of days. I ain’t seen our little sunshine much either. You two have a fight?”“I don’t wanna talk about it.” He rested his head on the refrigerator, wondering if Cass would even care if he got sucked up by another portal.“Well, I do. So what’s going on?”Brandon turned to look at his dad whose features were much softer than his tone at the moment. The teen ran a hand down his face, wiping away sweat and angst. “We had a fight a couple of nights ago. We’ve been civil to each other since, but not like before. I thought when I got back from the portal, everything would be easy, like we’d never argue or be apart again becau
The Clandestine Saga Something's Wrong
Cadence Findley stood on the balcony of her hotel room gazing out at the fading sun, dancing off the turquoise waters, as the sky turned pink and gold. The tropical breeze lifted her hair up off of her shoulders and could’ve lifted her spirits if she wasn’t so deep in thought.They’d been in Fiji for twelve days and had had a wonderful time. Most of those days had been spent on the beach, relaxing and doing nothing much at all. But they’d also gone sightseeing, hiking, zip-lining, snorkeling, all kinds of great expeditions she’d never experienced before.Now, watching the sun begin to fade beyond the horizon, an unsettled feeling began twisting in her gut, alerting her that something was wrong. She’d had the same sensation several times in the last few days but had managed to ignore it to the point that even Aaron didn’t seem to notice that something was bothering her. This time, it was more intense, and even though they only h
The Clandestine Saga Into the Woods
Eliza knew where Christian really was, too, but she wouldn’t say anything. Thanks to the information Cassidy had passed to her through him, Eliza and her team had managed to take out two of the six thugs on the list on consecutive nights this week, and that night, they planned on heading after Honey herself. Christian wished Eliza every bit of success and that she would serve as a distraction to Daunator so that he wouldn’t see Christian coming or be prepared when he showed up.The cityscape turned to forest and mountains quickly, and Christian checked his IAC to make sure he was still headed in the right direction. Finding Daunator might be the most difficult part, or the easiest. Either way, nothing about this adventure would be simple, but it needed to be done.A woman’s voice crooned at him in Czech over the radio. Rather than fiddling with the knob until something came through in English, he decided to leave it be. There was something soul stirri
The Clandestine Saga Grand Gesture
Cassidy’s IAC flickered, bringing her out of her head and back to the room, which was just as well. The last thing Christian needed was for Cassidy to tip Daunator off. She actually had two messages, one from Eliza, which would’ve been weird under any other circumstances, and one from Brandon, whom she’d been avoiding the last few days. He’d asked to talk to her the day before yesterday, but she’d blown him off completely, and then yesterday, she’d gone over to Lucy’s to hang out with everyone but hadn’t really said much to him. Eventually, she’d get over their fight, but right now, she wasn’t in the mood to talk about her feelings.“I’m busy. Check in later,” she said really quickly to Brandon and then she responded to Eliza. “What’s up?”“Hey. Sorry to bother you. We’re headed into Honey’s prime territory, and I was just wondering if
The Clandestine Saga Hunting Honey
Eliza’s team was parked outside of the bar Cassidy had identified, just down the street far enough that the black SUV wouldn’t draw too much attention from anyone, hopefully not the Vampire they were after, at any rate. While it would’ve been nice to have Cassidy’s ability to jump into Honey’s head and make sure she was still close by, Eliza had to take her word for it, at least until she asked the Hybrid to help out again, if she dared to do so. She couldn’t blame the teen for hating her guts, but she did seem willing to help them out, despite the history between Eliza and Cassidy’s sister, which was likely due to the fact that there wasn’t much going on in Kansas City these days, not because Eliza had proven herself to be worthy of help.“You’re sure this is the place?” Sergio asked from the driver’s seat.“I’m sure it was the place,” Eliza replied. “I have no way of knowi
The Clandestine Saga Sacrifice
“Why? Won’t that just give her more of an opportunity to slip away from us?”“She won’t slip away from us,” Eliza assured him.“But Mila didn’t say to do that,” Sergio continued.“She’s on her way out the front door,” Cassidy told Eliza.Sergio continued to justify his reasoning for getting on her immediately, so much so that he missed Honey coming out the door on the arm of a tall man who didn’t look too different from the fellow she’d picked out the night before.“That guy she’s with is still a human, for now. His name is Daven, and he’s worried that his wife will know he’s not at his friend’s house playing cards like she thinks, though not worried enough to stay put in the bar when a tall, beautiful blonde invites him down the block to her place.”“Good to know,&rdqu
