CHAPTER 13
ISABELLA'S POV
After the plane touches down it was decided that we would all travel separately so that no outsider could determine that we were connected in any way.
After my cab ride to the safe house, I paid the driver and after making sure I wasn't being followed I went inside. After giving the receptionist my name I wondered if the others were here yet. I found my room door and dialed a number on my phone then hung up.
Moments later the door opened up and Catherine stood in the doorway. "Were you followed?" She asked after I shook my head I entered. The room was set up as a makeshift control center.

Raven's povI stiffled a yawn in the back of the taxi. The streets of Paris slide by the window, brightly painted street drones hover overhead monitoring the busy road and above it all stands the Eiffel tower.This switch is abrupt even for the agency and i can't help but wonder what it means. I leaned back into the seat as i contemplated what this could mean. I was sure that going after The Dragon would be a top priority, what's popped up that's more important than taking down the must wanted criminal in the world.Or retrieving the weapon Minataur was after when it comes to minataur there's a personal edge for me.
