CHAPTER FIFTEEN

Outside New York

The day came for the strike team to make a move on their first target. It was early morning when they set out, but a team of vampires accompanied them in assassin gear taken from the Black Plague to protect them from the sun.

Now that Clara and Platea had filled them in on the situation with the network of indies, it was more important than ever that they take care of the enemy nodes.

And this was no longer a simple strike, it was an intel-gathering mission. Find out who the partners were, and where.

Diego really did want to stay with his wife and unborn child, if for nothing else than to help her around the house. She had shown signs of being exhausted lately, even if she wouldn’t admit it, and nausea had woken her up more than she liked to admit.

Still, a part of him looked forward to having an excuse to transform and teach some bastards a lesson. It wasn’t that he enjoyed hurting people or killing, when it came to it, but he loved making the world a better place. If it took blood, then so be it.

This wasn’t an attitude he liked to discuss openly too often, but it was something he, Garcia, and Felix could all agree on.

“Colonel Walton is going to love this,” Garcia noted, running in a crouch to approach the edge of the hill. Diego and Felix were at his side, a small group of Weres and vampires behind them.

A soldier lay in the grass staring forward. He had told them to hang back while he confirmed the location, then motioned to them to advance.

“What’re we dealing with?” Felix asked.

“If it were me and my men, I’d say be careful,” the soldier told him. “But honestly?” He looked at the Weres and vampires and laughed. “I almost feel sorry for this outpost.”

“How many men, soldier?” Garcia demanded. “The last thing we need to do is get cocky and lose someone in battle.”

“Right. Sorry, Sergeant. We’ve been watching this one for almost twenty-four hours, and we’re dealing with approximately forty of ’em by my best guess.”

“That’s nearly two-to-one,” Felix said with a smile. “The guy’s right. Cakewalk.”

Garcia grunted. “Keep the hubris to yourself. Tell the men it’s more like eighty, and that they might have some vampires hidden away.”

Felix laughed quietly and nodded. “Enjoy the show, Sarge.”

“Don’t get me started.” Garcia pointed a finger at his chest. “Sometimes I think, hey, that guy can heal, what’s the big deal if I shoot him in the leg to get him to shut up?”

“Shoot me next time you have the craving,” Felix replied. “I like to play rough.”

“Okay, boys, enough flirting,” Diego interjected. “We have some dickheads to kill.”

“That’s just the kind of foreplay I need to get ready for this guy.” Felix blew Garcia a mocking kiss.

“Hardy har,” Garcia replied. “You know that if I ate muffins yours would be the first I’d eat, big guy.”

“I don’t know what the fuck
