116 The Distraction

Kai POV

I watched as my lovely wife and Jason entered the car and then drove away with the assigned escort. Ben, Charlie, and

I start making our way to the main warehouse next door.

My wife. I love the sound of that title. But my poor baby looks so tired even after six hours of sleep.

“Do you think we should call the doctor for Aurora? She’s been sleeping a lot more and seems a little spaced out.” I asked the guys as we entered the side of the building using Ben’s keycard.

“Hmm. Yeah, you’re right. I don’t think it would hurt to make sure everything is okay. Dimitry coming back is hard on

all of us, but I can only imagine what she is going through right now. We need to finish this once and for all.” Charlie

said with a sad smile on his face.

“I agree. Aurora will be safe at home. Jason has already ordered triple reinforcement. The first plane will arrive within the hour and two convoys have arrived and already checked in and on assignment. I am going to go to check in with the Nerds and see if I can track that bastard down.” Ben said and walked off.

“See you at home later?” Charlie asked and I hummed and nodded, still thinking about Aurora. Something doesn’t feel right and I can’t put my finger on it, almost like she is hiding something. But that can’t be right. She is always with us. It’s not like she can keep a secret from us.

“I think Ben put the new sharpshooter guns in your lair. Try not to have too much fun, okay?” Charlie smiled and started walking towards his office.

“Who? Me? Never.” I replied sarcastically with a shit–eating grin on my face. I love new toys! I happily increased my pace and headed downstairs and through the labyrinth of corridors until I got to the Omega headquarters. I scanned my handprint, retina, and embedded wrist chip and the door clicked open.

I walked in and saw the best and brightest hanging out at the tables and sofas, all of them laughing and talking while sharpening or cleaning their weapons. “Honey! I’m home!” I sang, with my arms outstretched. The guys stopped their chatter and immediately stood at attention.

“At ease soldiers,” I commanded and they relaxed but still stood, ready for orders. I began to slowly walk around the space, addressing my men. “Marco has gone too far. He attacked us on our honeymoon and could have hurt Aurora. We are going to find him and kill him, for real this time. No mistakes gentlemen. We will not stop until his head
