You need a battle plan, Matt advised. I never left the base without detailed reconnaissance and a battle plan. It’s why I came home alive.Tate chuckled in spite of himself. She’s a woman, not an enemy stronghold.That’s what you think, Matt said, pointing a spoon in the other man’s direction before he lowered it into his cup. Most women enemy strongholds, he added, with a wicked glance at his smiling wife. You have to storm the gates properly.He knows all about storming gates, apparently, Leta said with faint sarcasm.

Matt asked.Tate shook his head. I can’t. I have to get to her before Gabrini does, although I’m fairly sure he has no more idea where she really is than I did until today. I just have to find a new approach to get her back home. God knows what. He sipped more coffee and glanced from one of his parents to the other. He felt as if he belonged, for the first time in his life. It made him warm inside to consider how dear these two people suddenly were to him. His father, he thought, was quite a guy. Not that he was going to say so. The man was far too arrogant already.
