“They won’t even know what hit them if we all go,” Colin said.

“I’m down,” Tucker said.

“Me too,” Linc agreed.

“What the hell, let’s do it,” Michael said.

“I want in on this too,” Chelle said.

The guys jumped at her voice. No one had noticed her arrival.

“No civilians,” I told her.

“She’s my sister.”

“I did not risk everything to get you out of there so you could just run back in. That’s not happening.”

“Who’s this?” Linc asked.

“Guys, this is Chelle, Tilly’s older sister.”

“The one that was supposed to mate Aiden?” Colin asked.

“Yeah, that one.”

“I don’t even know if Aiden’s still alive, or my parents, or anyone else I care about. But if Tilly is right there, then we have to go get her.”

“Not yet,” I insisted.

“You have a plan?” Michael asked.

“Already in the works.”

“Patrick signed off on this?”

“Not yet. But if Kelsey comes through then hopefully soon.”

“You’re calling in favors, aren’t you?” Walker challenged.

“I’m doing what I have to do to save my family.”

“Speaking of which, are the kids safe?” Michael asked.

It touched me that he thought to even ask.

“For now. I really need to get them away from this. I may be taking them back home with me. I just can’t bring myself to go until I know Tilly is safe. Hell, I can’t even manage to go get them and bring them back here when I know now that she’s right there.”

“I’ll do it,” Walker said.

“What?”

“I will go and get your brothers and sister and bring them back here.”

“I’ll go, too,” Colin said.

“Might as well take Linc and Tucker too. One man on each kid,” Michael advised.

“What? You’re not volunteering?”
