“She’s secure?” Landon grunted at Alvarez as he walked back to the command center.

“Yes, sir.”

Landon glanced over at the cage in the center of the warehouse where Piper and Abby were now locked up. Piper had her arms around her daughter, one of her hands stroking Abby’s face and pushing the hair out of her eyes. What they were saying, Landon couldn’t quite hear. He was sure it was some emotional mumbo-jumbo, the kind of stuff that Piper loved so much. He wasn’t that kind of guy, but he’d played along, at least long enough to get her to trust him. The sex hadn’t been bad either. She came at him like starved rabbit, which told him pretty much all he needed to know about her relationship with Chase. But Piper wasn’t the kind of woman he ever wanted to spend more than a night or two with. She was part of the mission, that’s all.

When Colonel Foster had approached him about acquiring the ABG, Landon had listened quietly to the framework of the mission Foster had put together. Adding Piper into the mix had been Landon’s suggestion, his way of making sure they had complete control over the family. “The fewer options Chase has, the better,” Landon had said to Foster after they’d spend about a week of planning.

And now the day was here…

It remained to be seen whether Chase would cooperate and give them the ABG or not. Landon looked down at the tactical wristwatch he had on. He’d had it since he was in the Army. Never took it off. It was black with a black strap and read the time whether it was night or day or underwater or in a plane. The thing was nearly indestructible. It was like him. The Army had tried to destroy him with their rules. They said they were written in stone, but they weren’t. When Landon had bent them a little bit to get the mission he’d been assigned done for Foster, a promotion chasing JAG attorney decided to charge him. A sour taste filled his mouth remembering the trial, which had only lasted two hours. A dishonorable discharge. His attorney told him to be happy he didn’t get jail time. They’d given him the watch back at the end of his case once he’d been released from his holding cell. He’d kept it on ever since to remind him to never trust anyone. No one. He could only trust himself.

Looking at the time, Landon realized Chase only had a few hours left until the deadline. From what they could tell by the tracker on his car and the cameras they had planted in the parking lot, it looked like he was at the lab. That was good news. If he was sitting around at home that could signal a problem. Landon glanced over to Baker, who was leaning over the computer screens, jotting something down on their mission log. “Location on Papa Bear?” That was the name they’d given to Chase.
