Lost and Found (Masters & Mercenaries: The Forgotten #2)(127)

Ari moved to his side. “I’ve given you my assessment, Damon.”

Penny shook her head, blonde curls shaking. “No, it’s not about who betrayed the team. We’re worried Tucker could be volatile when it comes to his past.”

Damon put a hand on his wife’s shoulder. “He’s not rational about this. He needs someone who can take charge in the field and make the call to pull him out if needs be.”

That was what this was about? “Of course. I’ll handle it all. You don’t have to worry.”

Damon frowned and sighed as though he didn’t like what he was about to say. “Ariel, you’re in charge of this operation. Do you understand me? Robert can have the final say when it comes to logistics, but on whether or not the op continues or gets shut down, that stops with you.”

Embarrassment flashed though his system, but he tamped it down. Damon was worried about Tucker’s state of mind. Ari was the shrink. Of course she should make the call in case Tucker was in mental trouble.

Not that it would ever come to that.

“Yes, sir,” Ari said, but her eyes had trailed Robert’s way.

He gave her a reassuring grin. “You’re the boss.”

And he firmly planned on getting it on with his boss.

“Excellent,” Damon said. “Carry on then. Let me know when you land.”

He took Ari’s hand, not bothering to hide it from the Knights. Everything was going to be okay.

In a few hours they would be in Munich and his life would truly begin.





Robert, Ariel, and the whole McKay-Taggart team will return in Lost in You, coming August 6, 2019. Click here to pre-order.
