Chapter Ten

Kaeden slid out of the pocket door and closed the desk area off from the living room where Kadey and Sky were engrossed in a movie they'd pulled up on Netflix. When he received the message indicating the scheduled check-in was pushed back, he didn't have time to wonder if the causality for the delay was related to the events of the previous day. To say he'd been distracted wouldn't even scratch the surface of the mindset he'd been working through while the doctors examined Kadey.

He couldn't imagine how Sky had managed to stay sane. By the time they left the hospital yesterday, he wanted to wrap Kadey in bubble wrap and eliminate anyone who caused her any discomfort. He may have even developed a plan or two… especially the phlebotomist that failed to find her vein the first time. Sky handled it like a champ and found ways to distract their daughter. The heartfelt sobs from his baby girl ate away at his self-control faster than a flame through flash paper. If Sky hadn't been there to settle them both down, the phlebotomist would have been sucking his meals through a straw for the next month.

His phone vibrated in his hands, and he accessed the call. "Six-four-nine."

"I pass you Cobalt." He recognized Bengal's voice immediately.

"Azure. What do you have for me?"

"The line is secure. Standby. We need to bring in Alpha and Archangel." The line went dead. Anubis sat down in the desk chair and closed his eyes. Fuck. Archangel was now the big man, the one in charge of all of Guardian. He'd seen him once at a gathering that he'd dropped into, uninvited. Archangel and Asp could damn near be identical bookends they were built that much alike.

Bengal came back on the line. "Archangel, Alpha, you have Six-four-nine, and CCS on a secure line." Bengal identified the cyber intelligence office from which his woman, and now he, worked.

"How is your daughter?" The raspy voice wasn't Alpha and sure as fuck wasn't Bengal, so Anubis assumed it was Archangel's.

"She is getting the care she needs, sir. Surgery is scheduled."

"Roger that. We've asked the Secretary of the Air Force to authorize the base to temporarily elevate the security at Taylor Air Force Base."

Anubis leaned forward and propped his elbows on the desk. "The rationale?"

"Alpha, fill him in." Archangel's voice grated against his ear.

"We have verified through several sources that there has been a hit issued on your alias, your daughter, and her mother." Alpha's words dropped like lead.

Anubis drew in a breath and released it. He repeated the action two more times before he spoke. "The identity of the entity that funded the hit?"

"At this time, we've followed the money trail back to Suriname."

Anubis collapsed back into the leather chair and stared at the ceiling. "Fuck me. They obtained blood samples from the room where they held me."

"Probably. The man who was your target, Haghen, was Satan incarnate, but his nephew, Faas? That fucker makes his uncle look like Santa Clause.
