THURSDAY. EAGLE TECH, Seattle, Washington.

Jo could hardly believe they’d gotten this far without incident. The whole plan had sounded far too good to be true. But here they were, in the damn server room. She was going to owe Elias so big after this. He was the rock star that made it all happen. There was no way they’d have gotten this far without him.

She hovered behind Isaac as he picked away at the keyboard.

“Find it yet?” she asked, anxious to be out of here. From what she could hear of Elias’ side of the conversation, he was starting to scrape the bottom of the bucket to keep Torres talking.

“I’m working on it,” Isaac snapped.

She bit back her own unhelpful reply. Instead, she crossed to the door and peered out of the little glass window.

“I’m running out of material, guys,” Elias whispered into her ear.

These comms were something else. So small most people wouldn’t even notice them.

“Isaac is working on it. I don’t know how long it’ll take,” she said.

“Work faster,” Elias said.

“How much time do you think we have?” Isaac asked.

“Not much. Focus.”

Jo was starting to wonder where the hell Dion was. Did he have a better handle on where the virtual bomb code might be? Had they already extracted it? Were they gone? Was that why Isaac was taking so long? Or had Elias seen Dion at all?

She didn’t want to consider that last question.

After Elias’s injuries, she knew he’d stayed away from all combat roles. His jobs had been desk work out of the eye. And then there was this morning. She was used to his cool-under-pressure attitude, but this morning he’d been like ice. Inhuman and cold. It made her worried for him.

Was she asking too much? Could this whole thing be damaging to him?

She bit her lip and struggled with the guilt.

“My assistant had to run to do a pickup. Would you mind if I waited for him in the lobby?” Elias asked.

No more cards to play.

She turned and crossed to Isaac’s side.

“You’ve got to give us something. Do you think you’re close? Do you have any idea?” she asked.

“Thanks so much. It’s kind of you to let me wait in your office,” Elias said.

Isaac mashed the keys hard.

“Come on, tell me anything,” she pleaded.

He whirled to face her, eyes wide and jaw clenched. His hands balled into fists.

“There is no bomb,” he said.

“What? Dion got here first?” She shouldered him aside and grabbed the keyboard.

“No. I mean, there never was a virtual bomb. It was made up.” Isaac threw his hands up in the air. “It was a trap.”

Her body went cold. She pivoted to face him as chilly rage pumped through her.

“What?” she asked.

Isaac’s nostrils flared. “Giovanni knows he has a rat. Someone is snitching. So he set up a trap, and we’re in it.”

“What do you mean a trap?” She glanced over her shoulder, as if she expected the so-called trap to snap shut.

Isaac held his hand up, fingers pinched together. “You’re on his short list of rats.
