Peter shook hands with David Harris, Diana’s partner, who then introduced Maggie Gonzalez, a physician and sometime assistant forensic specialist for the FBI.

He had not met Maggie during the course of either the Williams investigation or the more recent problems with Melissa Danvers. He would remember if he had. She was a stunning woman. Tall and auburn-haired with a slim athletic build. Her face was classically beautiful and yet, she didn’t move him in the way that Samantha did.

“It’s nice to finally meet you,” Maggie said. “Diana speaks quite well of you.”

“The same for you. I want to thank you for helping us.”

David and Maggie sat down across from him at the conference room table and it was then Peter noticed the connection between them that they were obviously trying to ignore. He didn’t have time to think on it further before Diana joined them.

“David. Were you able to get any information from your friend?” she asked.

“Actually, no, but by not getting information, I got information.”

“Meaning?” Peter asked.

“My contact at the National Security Agency said that the heat has been on ever since Sloan was presumed dead. Apparently, the higher-ups don’t look too kindly on ex-operatives dying under unusual circumstances, especially at one of their old safehouses.”

“Which means?” Diana asked.

David clasped his hands together. “He wanted to know why I needed information on two ex-agents who used to work with Sloan.”

Peter was taken aback by what he was hearing. “The fingerprints belonged to ex-NSA agents?”

David nodded. “Not only ex-NSA, but on Sloan’s team in 2003. They were working together to gather information on the possibility of a super-soldier unit. Like Sloan, they were terminated because the NSA believed they had become an unnecessary risk.”

“And now they’ve become our unnecessary risk?” Peter jumped in with some exasperation. “This is one too many coincidences. The description of our culprit. Sloan’s ex-colleagues involvement. The profile of the missing—”

“People,” Diana said and shot him a warning look.

He’d been about to say vampires. The two agents sitting across from him had no clue as to the real reasons for their investigations.

“The evidence from the victim points to similarities between where she was taken and the area near the safehouse where Sloan was killed—” Maggie added.

“Presumably killed. The NSA isn’t listing him as dead without a body,” David corrected.

“Why does everything point back to Sloan?” Peter asked.

“David provided me with the information we had on Sloan. As sick as he was, it’s unlikely he’s still alive only…” Maggie paused and glanced at them uneasily. “The evidence you brought me included Sloan’s fingerprint.”

Diana laid her hands on the table and stared at her two friends. “If I’m hearing you both correctly, you think Sloan is still alive.”

Maggie and David shot a look at one another before Maggie nodded. “Yes. I don’t know how, but it seems possible. And, as I was saying, based on the evidence from the last victim, the culprit is taking them to a rural location. Near some woods. Probably with a lake or other body of water nearby.
