An hour later MaeBe finally closed her borrowed laptop. She’d given them everything she had, and there was a part of her that was grateful to be done. She was almost certain that now Kyle would thank her and he and Drake and Taylor would go catch that airplane they’d intended for her.

He might come back one day, but she would know it wasn’t about love. She’d thought about their relationship a lot and come to the conclusion that Kyle still viewed her as the opposite of Julia Ennis, and she couldn’t be that.

The truth was she and Julia had something in common now. She could see the world through Julia’s eyes, and she didn’t like her place in it.

She’d been prey, and now she had to be the predator.

Big Tag closed his notebook and sat back. “All that sounds like an excellent start. What do you want to do with that information?”

“I’d like to have MaeBe discuss everything she knows about my father. It might help us figure out where he might have kept his personal files.” Drake had been solemn all morning, listening to the rundown of his father’s crimes.

She could do that from the comfort of her cubicle. “Of course.”

“And when we decide on a couple of locations that might work as a place for him to have stashed the intel, the four of us will go and hopefully find the data we need.” Kyle sat up straight and stretched, moving one muscled arm over his chest. “Mae can act as our analyst and tech when we’re in the field. I’m going to raid the storeroom for some equipment and then I’ll set up a couple of desks for us so we can work from here, if that’s all right.”

Why had he said four of them? Who else was he taking?

Charlotte stopped Ian, who looked like he was about to protest. “Take whatever you need. I think you’ll find we’re pretty well stocked here. Your uncle likes his toys.”

“Yes, and I tend to like to keep them.” Ian didn’t move when Charlotte stood and gathered her things. “He better not touch my flamethrower.”

“What do you mean act as your tech?” MaeBe asked. He couldn’t have said anything that would have surprised her more. Kyle didn’t want her to work. She’d always gotten the feeling he would be so much happier if she’d stayed home and waited for him. Like some pathetic doll. “You want me in your ear?”

It was something she’d done many times before for ops, but almost never for Kyle. He mostly did bodyguard work, and MaeBe worked tech for investigators.

“You’re the only one I would trust. I want Taylor ready to come in if she has to.” He pushed back and stood. “She’ll stay with you and help with tech, but if you’re there then we can be assured we’ll still have someone in an overwatch position.”

Now she understood. She could easily do that job from here. It would be good to keep an eye on what was going on.
