Chapter 269
"If that's the case, then yes, you can. I will make the necessary arrangements for this mission. I need to warn you though. We know nothing about this mission, so you'll be going in blind. We cannot give you a time estimate simply because we don't have one. We don't know when it is that Lane plans to detonate the bomb, or if he's even behind it. All we know is that he's back on the scene and he's searching for funding for this project," Silver concluded.

While she left to arrange transportation and the likes, we stayed behind and brainstormed around how we would be going about this. We weren't about to send the Lillian in without backup, but we had to be careful about the way we handled things simply because we have a history with Lane.

"It's been reported that Lane is staying at his Los Angeles mansion and working from his California lab, so you'll be headed to the respective houses and safe houses there. I've alerted the Lillian and they'll meet you there, save for Kenya. I'm not sure where she is. Everything else has been arranged, and you'll be meeting with a team once you land who will give you everything that you need," Silver informed us.

We left HQ and headed straight to the private airport. We'd texted Brady and them to join us there because we knew that we were being watched by Silver. As soon as we were close enough, Jayme killed the Cypher signal, giving us thirty minutes to leave before Cypher actually found us.

"Am I seeing things?" Jayme asked, his eyes landing on Grayson.

"Nope!" Malachi told him.

"Do I want to know?" Jayme asked.

"Nope!" Mordecai replied.

"Great! What's the plan?" Jayme asked.

"We're leaving for LA and we'll meet up with the Lillian there to put together a solid plan. Silver's allocated our places for us so that we all know where we're staying. We need to find a way to keep Cypher looped in, but without them getting everything," I replied.

"We'll work on something on the jet," Brady said, referring to him and Jayme.

We all got onto the jet before taking off back to the States. As soon as we were settled in the air, Kenya and Nigel were cuddled together, Brady and Jayme were doing some programming, Franco and Thales were busy with something, the twins decided to watch a movie, Aziel slept, Nadia was on her phone, Karr was also busy on his laptop and Grayson was reading.

I was lost in thought as I traced my thumb over the tattoo on my ring finger. At the base of the finger were the initials N.S.D followed by an infinity sign. On the side was the word Blossom, and my thoughts trailed over to the tattoo on my chest. I'd finally added the name of the love of my life to that important tattoo, and on that day, we made a promise to each other.

We promised till death do us apart, which is why I cannot fail my wife when she needs me now more than ever.
