Aiden threw his friend a bit of side-eye for that bit of snark that he knew referred back to him calling Frost and Mike uptight. “Funny.”
Frost shrugged, but restrained laughter glowed in his icy blue eyes.
Aiden smiled outright, glad to have the tension in the room somewhat lightened.
Something beeped at Caleb’s command center.
“They’re mobilizing,” he said after a quick look at his screen.
Strong nodded and started typing something on his electronic pad. “Then so are we. Keep the Pruitt force off the island. That’s all you need to do. After you defeat them, Caleb has a plan to put a stop to this once and for all.”
“Got it.” Aiden looked at Mike who gave him a confident nod.
Amina cracked her knuckles. “Let’s do this.”
Aiden left the firehouse with his team. He straddled his bike, Frost climbing on behind him. Once Aiden pulled his mask into place, he felt settled. Ready to fight. They were going to win. Pruitt was not going to get his greedy hands on the Playground.
