Chapter Thirteen

Leo

I hadn’t heard a word Z had said in the last five minutes. All of my attention was across the room on Abe and Olivia. I had to admit that jealousy was a new feeling for me. I willed myself to stay in place when something that Abe said had upset Olivia. Her face paled, and she was struggling to catch her breath. I was about to go over there when Abe said something to her that calmed her. I didn’t like that one fucking bit. I wanted to be the man that comforted her. Me, and only me. I didn’t give a shit if it was irrational. I had spent the last three days trying to keep her at a distance. The harder I fought it, the stronger the pull became.

“Is this gonna be a problem?” Z pulled me from my thoughts.

“Come again?”

“Swear to Christ, you’ll find my boot up your ass if you screw this up and get yourself dead, or the girl,” Z commented.

“You know that makes zero sense, right?” I laughed.

“You wanna split cunt hairs, or you wanna focus on the op and stop making googly eyes at Olivia?”

“The fuck you talking about? I do not make googly eyes.”

Z had finally lost his mind. Too much pressure and lack of sleep were making him see things.

“Really? You want me to get you a mirror? You’re looking at Abe like you want to kill him for daring to talk to the girl. And when your eyes land on her I swear you think you’re on some fucking honeymoon instead of an op. I think Jaxon should sit on her and you can run back up.”

That got my attention. “The hell you will. Olivia is mine,” I growled.

“Is she now? And does she know?” Z smiled. Sneaky fucker made me give away more than I wanted.

“No.” I wasn’t going to elaborate or give Z any more information.

“Is it going to be a problem for you? I need you focused on this op. Gomez is in the United States. Facial recognition has him entering LAX under the alias Louis Smith three hours ago.”

“I’m good.”

Zane studied me for a minute before he picked up his tablet and continued, “He has a three-man team with him. Tex led him straight to you. Find, fix, track, and kill. Everything is in place for you to take him out. Gomez thinks we’re willing to make the trade.”

“How’d you pull that off? I thought Peter was being tight-lipped about the man he had in custody.”

“Blue team got the thumb drive out of Peter’s safe. I could’ve asked Tom for the name, but I didn’t want to put him in the position of divulging state secrets. This way Tom is a hundred percent clean and I still got the intel we needed. Tex and Garrett tracked Jose Siles. He was a lowly money launderer for the Gomez Cartel. Seems that Siles wanted out and contacted US officials. A low-level sweep was carried out, Siles got picked up and placed in protective custody providing he gave up everything he knew.
