Chapter 14

“I can’t come up with anything else to explain how he knew what we were planning,” Jake said, running his hand through his hair in exasperation as he sat down wearily on the big, comfortable-looking couch. “Harrington must have someone inside our organization feeding him information. There’s no other way he could have known we were both at the UN and his group offices at the same time.”

From where she was perched on the stool at the granite island dividing the living room from the kitchen in the Englewood, New Jersey, home they were using as a safe house, Brielle waited for someone to tell Jake that he was wrong, that there was no way anyone in STAT—or the CIA or NSA for that matter—had ratted them out. But nobody did.

“I’m less concerned about how Harrington knew we were in his building than how his security people seemed to know which way we were going to run during our escape,” Sawyer murmured. He was sitting beside Harley on the couch, his face grim. “Even after Misty shut down the building’s security cameras, those guards were ahead of us every step of the way. It was like they knew where we were going before we did. We’re lucky to have made it out of there alive.”

“I’ve been wondering the same thing.” Jake frowned. “Especially since it might mean we don’t just have a spy in our organization but somewhere on our team.”

As one, everyone—including Brielle—looked at Hudson, who was leaning against the island. He promptly gave them all the finger.

“You’ve got to be kidding me,” he muttered. “I was nearly killed three times trying to get us out of Harrington’s offices. And it sure as hell wasn’t like I had a chance to communicate with anyone while we were running our asses off.”

Sawyer regarded him coolly. “Maybe you have a tracking device on you.”

Hudson stepped away from the island, spreading his arms. “Feel free to search me. Right here in front of everyone.”

“The tracking device could be one of those high-tech thingies that slip under your skin,” Caleb said with a low growl from the kitchen where he was searching through the mostly empty cabinets for something to eat. “I’d have to slice you apart to make sure I don’t miss it, though.” He glanced over his shoulder, eyes flashing blue for a split second. “I don’t think anyone would have a problem with that.”

Brielle was surprised by how angry Caleb was. Now that she thought about it, he’d been like that since they’d left the UN building in Midtown.

She was about to ask him what was bothering him—as quietly as she could, of course—but before she could, Hudson circled around the island and strode toward Caleb, a pissed-off, determined look on his face.

“I don’t know what the hell your problem is,” Hudson said. “But if you have something to say to me, why don’t you try it when I’m right in front of you?”

Caleb’s eyes turned blue again—and stayed that way this time.
