Aegis Group Task Force Chapter 21: Tabby
TABBY WIGGLED UNCOMFORTABLY IN her seat. The way the car vibrated usually didn't register, but after last night she was all too sensitive. Not to mention that kiss.God, sleeping with Jamie was a terrible idea. And yet, she didn't regret it. What she regretted was the inevitable heartache that would come her way."Get your head in the game," she muttered at herself.They were about to board a plane to do some kind of super spy crazy stuff and she was thinking about a man. A really sexy man, but a man nonetheless. She was better than this.A car turned behind Tabby with its bright lights on."Come on." She groaned and slid farther down in her seat so the reflection in the rearview mirror didn't blind her.The vehicle sped up, only causing the high beams to assault her from either side thanks to all the mirrors in her car."Go around me," she snapped.A van zoomed out in front of her."Oh, God!" Tabby stomped on the brakes, downshifting the car as the van skidded to a s
Aegis Group Task Force Chapter 22: Jamie
JAMIE HUNCHED BEHIND HIS truck, listening to the slugs tear into the old vehicle. Down the street, Tabby's taillights turned out of sight.She was safe.When he'd driven up and seen those men dragging her out of the car, he'd seen red. It had taken him a few seconds to get his gun out from the locked case in his back seat, but once he was armed, he'd done his best to make her a risky target.It had worked. Maybe a little too well.An engine whined and tires screeched.Another bullet ripped into his truck causing Jamie to wince.He and this truck, they'd had a good run.Neither the SUV or van that had blocked Tabby in pursued her. Least not that Jamie saw.He straightened, peering around the truck, but the street was empty save for him, bullet casings and a pool of glass. There weren't any bodies, and he knew for a fact two of those guys had gone down never to get up again. People didn't come back from a headshot.It was almost as if the kidnapping had never happened.
Aegis Group Task Force Chapter 23: Tabby
Monday. Hotel, New York City, NY.TABBY PACED THE SMALL hotel room. Everyone else had gone straight to where the photos of Gazi with the crates had been taken while she had a conference call with two CIA agents who wouldn't give her their names and asked a series of weird questions about the morning.Someone had tried to kidnap her.It was surreal.She wished she was with Jamie and the others. She knew there was nothing for her to do there. It made sense for her to go to the hotel rather than tag along with everyone else. And yet she wanted to be there. Because Jamie made her feel safe. He'd faced off against men to save her, and she wasn't quite ready to be on her own yet.She pressed her hand to her chest, as if she could force her racing heart to calm the fuck down.Harper's good natured joking around on the plane was revealing, but she wasn't sure what it told her. It was clear to Tabby that Jamie was good with women. He'd charmed her in minutes. She wouldn't be surp
Aegis Group Task Force Chapter 24: Tabby
Tabby stepped back to allow Zora into her room. "It was so good to hear from you. I miss you.""You've got to come visit the next chance you get," Yvonne said.Tabby shut the door. "Maybe we work it out so I'm there right before Nolan leaves then a bit while he's gone?""That sounds perfect. Have a good meeting. I promise I'll text more.""Do what you can, Vee." Tabby hung up the phone before turning to address her guest. "Sorry about that.""No, it's fine." Zora held up her hands. "Thank you for dropping everything to come with us. And this morning...""Did they find out anything? Do you know?" Tabby still felt like that whole thing had happened to someone else. Someone who wasn't her."No, nothing yet. There's just no evidence. Even the casings, they're not giving us any leads."Tabby set her phone down. Wouldn't it be nice if Zora was here to say it was all wrapped up? "What about here? Did you find anything?""Nothing, really. It looks like Gazi crashed in one of
Aegis Group Task Force Chapter 25: Jamie
Monday. New York City, NY.JAMIE ADJUSTED HIS VEST. The new gear hung slightly to his left, throwing off his sense of balance. It was a constant reminder that this job was different. There was no way to prepare for the unknown because they had such a limited view of what the hell it was they were doing.He and the rest of the team were packed into the back of a van waiting for the go signal.They hadn't even gotten to see where the bust was going down."Am I the only one having a hard time with all this?" Evan asked, voicing Jamie's thoughts."Hell no," he replied."Nope," Harper muttered.Tucker blew out a breath. "This is what we signed up for, boys.""Yeah, I just thought we'd get a little more operational information." Jamie shifted his weapon and glanced at the back doors. "What the fuck are we even doing?"Logan didn't glance away from the spot on the floor he was staring at. "Zain told us this job would be different.""What do we know?" Jamie asked. "A shi
Aegis Group Task Force Chapter 26: Tabby
Monday. FBI Offices, New York City, NY.TABBY DIDN'T KNOW IF she should be pissed off or relieved."What the hell is going on?" She glanced at Zora keeping pace with her as they strode toward the front doors of an unmarked office building.Zora didn't reply. She kept looking straight ahead, her expression unreadable.Getting blood out of a rock would be easier than cracking that woman.At least Jamie was okay. But what the hell had happened out there?Tabby was a little surprised Zora was allowing Tabby to tag along. So far Tabby had mostly been kept in the role of consultant, given very little information and expected to pull off a miracle. If it wasn't for Jamie, being a sponge when it came to learning she'd have been worried.The front doors of the building opened, held by Jamie and Harper. Tabby knew they'd agreed to hold off during this op, but damn she wanted to hug him. Tonight might have been perfectly safe, but they hadn't known that going in."Where are we?
Aegis Group Task Force Chapter 27: Abner, Jamie
Monday. Home of the Light, New York.ABNER WATCHED THE CELL phone video of the tactical team head into darkness.They were about twelve hours too late. Too close for Abner's taste.Normally he wouldn't have gone near a deal this hot. He had rules in place to preserve his existence and way of life. That was how his family had grown, safely away from the prying eyes of Big Brother.But the opportunity to get his hands on the first commercially produced HiTech Sentinel Series drone was just too much to pass up. And for a steal.Gazi Polat had no idea what the drones were truly worth. Otherwise he'd have laughed at what Abner had paid for them.And speaking of Gazi...Abner tapped his phone activating the video call."Yes, Father?" The boy's face was in shadow and further obscured by a hoodie."Are you still keeping tabs on our man?" Abner asked."Yes. He hasn't moved all day."Abner resisted the urge to express his thoughts on that matter. The man was an idiot. A
Aegis Group Task Force Chapter 28: Jamie
Jamie glanced up and down the hall, ensuring they were alone before following her inside. He set his ice bucket down on the top shelf of the open closet."What are you going to do? You and the team, I mean?" Tabby sat on the edge of the bed and unzipped her boots."I hope we'll be able to help the FBI, but we're obligated to go and do what Zora tells us. I fucking hate it. One of the things I've liked about working for Aegis Group is that we get to be the good guys. We do the good shit. If we do what Zora tells us, it doesn't feel like we're being the good guys.""She does have a point though." Tabby placed her hands on her knees and grimaced. "There's always some great destruction just on the horizon that most don't know about."Jamie leaned against the wall watching her stare at a spot on the carpet.He hadn't really understood how different this job would be. They were always off to another op every week. The action kept coming. But working with the task force meant that w
