Chapter Thirteen

“Let’s go over it again.” Raife tossed his empty take-out container on the conference table and rocked back in his chair, tucking his hands behind his head. “There’s something missing.”

“What in the hell could possibly be missing? Unmated Drachon go missing, most likely ending up at this facility.” Kel motioned to the screen with her chopsticks. She was kicked back in a chair with one booted foot braced against the edge of the table. An image of North America filled the translucent SMART board. The research facility was a large pulsating red spot on the West Coast. “We know where it’s at. Tag got a little look into the security system. Kat here’s got a pretty good idea of the layout. Let’s just take the damn place.”

“As oozing with strategy as that is,” Raife said drily, “I think maybe Forestor might want to know whose toes we’d be stepping on exactly.”

“And we’ve got so many toes to choose from,” Tag mused around a mouthful of food. “Katya’s a popular lady. So far it looks as if the Rebels are interested in her. The Triumvirate is trying to retrieve her. Not to mention her own House wants her something fierce.”

“That’s where they took you.” Kel pushed away from the table and launched to her feet to pace the room restlessly.

“Yes, but we already established that the purpose for Raife’s abduction may have not been random at all. Maybe we need to focus on the others who are there.” Gideon turned his gaze on Katya. “What can you tell us of the others, achoti?”

Raife prickled at the easy affection Gideon had for Katya, especially since she had an affinity for him. Consciously, he knew the man wasn’t a threat to his claim on her, but his reaction was hard to curb all the same. She was working with the mysterious crossbreed on a daily basis to strengthen her Elemental abilities. And Katya was so at ease with Gideon.

More so than she was with him.

He was trying real damn hard not to be jealous about that.

“There were a lot of them. I could hear them through the walls.” She paused, and Raife wrapped her mind in his, not so overwhelming that he interfered with her memories, but enough that she would feel his strength. For a moment, he shared them with her. He could practically
