Then she saw two heat signatures in the trees near him.

“Boone, you have two bogeys coming up. West of your location. Ten meters.”

“Thanks, Hex. I see them.”

They’d be another delay in him getting to Cain.

Her nerves were making her chest tight.You come back to me, Cain Cavanagh.

“Entering now,” Cain said.

She saw his heat signature and switched to the high-res camera. He was scaling the side of the boathouse.

God, he moved like damn Spider-Man. She saw him pause, open a window, then slip inside.

He’ll be fine. He’ll be fine.

She grabbed her SIG Sauer from her holster and whirled.

Hades and Wolf limped out of the trees.

Nick’s shirt was soaked in blood.

Shit. She hurried to grab the first aid kit out of the SUV.

“Lainie is going to be pissed,” she said.

Matteo lowered Nick to the ground beside the SUV. Nick leaned back against it and hissed.

“Yeah, my kitten won’t be happy.” His face was pinched.

“Here.” She handed the kit to Matteo.

He ripped it open. “Painkillers first, then I’ll patch you up.”

Nick grunted.

“Shade, the Albanians have arrived,” she said.

“I have eyes on them.”

He sounded so calm, so composed. He’d done this so many times. He was good at it and thrived on it. Could he ever give it up?

She watched the Albanians step off the boat.

Cain was now alone with nine bad guys.

Cain creptalong the upstairs mezzanine. He heard Weber talking.

“Here they come,” the businessman said.
