The CIA agents weren’t due to arrive for another hour. After Steven was calm, he and Jo went up to the mess hall to talk. When Tripp had called to tell me the commander and Jo were fighting in the weapons room, I hadn’t thought anything of it. Steven and Jo had had a tumultuous relationship; even Sam had fought with Steven on many occasions. But when I’d opened the door to the weapons room, they weren’t arguing. It had taken me a minute to react. Jo had had about ten daggers ready to stab her father. Granted, Steven was stubborn and hadn’t been listening to her, according to Tripp. Steven had to have been out of control for Jo to do something like stab her own father, although not one blade was pointing at his heart.

“That was weak,” Sam said from the other side of the punching bag.

I had to blow off some steam before I met with the agents. My mind was all over the place. My temper was teetering on the edge, much like Steven’s, and I itched to kill.

“Get on the mat,” Sam ordered, sweat dripping down his face as his five-o’clock shadow colored his angular jaw.

I glared, mainly out of sheer amazement that Sam had turned into a tall, imposing vampire overnight.

“What? I’m not afraid of you, London.”

I smoothed a hand over my head. “I am your superior officer.” It felt like yesterday that we’d rescued him from Edmund.

Rolling his eyes, Sam crossed the carpeted floor to the thick mat in the middle of the padded room. “In here, you’re my underling.”

I chuckled. The young vampire had grown some balls. Then again, Sam had always had the fortitude to take control.

“I know you’re dying to use your fists on bone and not a punching bag,” he said.

I grinned as I met him in the center. “Are you sure you can handle me?”

He let out a laugh.

Before I knew what was happening, Sam whirled around with a roundhouse kick to my jaw. My head went left then back. I touched my jaw before snapping it back into place.

For the next twenty minutes, we danced, punched, kicked, and wrestled. The entire session was freeing and energizing. I had to train more before we headed out to Alaska.

Sam snatched two towels off the chair near the door after we’d finished and threw me one. “So have you decided where the wedding will be?”

“Jo and I haven’t talked about it.” I wasn’t sure why, either. But I made a mental note to broach the topic when she and I were alone. “How is Matthew coming along, and Ben for that matter?”

Sam wiped his face. “Ben is doing great. Matthew has a long way to go.”

“We’ll need Ben for the upcoming mission. I was hoping we could use Matthew, too, now that Kraft and Kodiak have been captured.”

“Use his grandfather, Victor,” Sam said. “He helped you when you came to rescue Jo and me from the funeral home.”

I toweled the sweat off my neck.
