We all reluctantly get up and follow Van into the conference room. Although calling Ty the normal way would have meant that we could have stayed where we were, it would have also been a bit more difficult to hear everyone and see everyone, and since we have to discuss the wolves and the case that we will be taking on, it’s probably just a better idea if we do it in the conference room.

It doesn’t take long at all to get everything set up, and Ty soon appears on the screen.

His smile is huge as he takes in all of us.

“I did wonder if I would be hearing from you today, but I am happy to see that you are all taking it easy,” he says with a smile.

Van grins, “Well, we thought we had better get the relaxing in while we can.” He becomes serious, “Before we get into other things, we have decided that thanks to the events of last night, we’d like to be caught up now, rather than waiting until next week when we officially start back at work.”

Ty nods, “Yes. I think that’s wise. I take it that the situation with the wolves has been handled and that they’re dealing with the wolves that were loyal to Derek?”

Evander nods, “Yes. That’s all been dealt with. We do have a situation concerning it, but I’d rather explain that after the update.”

Ty smiles, “Okay. Great work by the way. The easiest thing to give an update on first will probably be what’s left of the Draconian team. Fetrick is going through his training again. He’s actually a hell of a lot better than I thought and doesn’t need the training like I thought he would, but he is insisting on doing it, and proving himself.”

Coen smiles, “He’s a good guy who was dealt a really fucking shitty hand, I’m glad that it’s working out for him.”

Ty nods, “Yes, it would appear that he’s going to be an asset to us. Jamie is being dealt with by his pack alpha, who isn’t happy at all. He has also been fired. Rupert is with Draith, and I imagine that, as is customary with the dragons, Draith is waiting until you have been called in to deal with him officially. I do know that he’s in the cells.”

Coen’s smile is sharp, “Good.”

“Is Draith still holding off on bringing Coen in?” Evander asks.

Ty nods and smiles, “Yes, he’s questioning Rupert to get as much information as possible, and I imagine that it will take quite a while to ensure that he has everything he needs.”

I grin, “Draith’s awesome. That should buy us some time.”

“Yeah, it will,” Coen agrees with a smile.

“Great, what about HID?” Doc asks.

“Well, they still haven’t contacted me about Neith, although we do know that the Blue Fucker knows that Neith is alive because of the attack at the compound,” Ty starts to explain. “The team that I sent in to do surveillance is incredibly close to being able to bring in the head of HID and all of his associates within the organization. It’s taking a little bit more time than we thought it would because the whole organization is riddled with traitors. They’re going to have barely enough agents left to keep the place going by the time that we’ve arrested all the dirty ones.”

“Whoa, that many?” Ransom questions with surprise.

“Yeah, if they weren’t directly working with the head of HID, then they were doing their own dirty side deals, and the Head had all of their names written down. The team is going through it now and trying to do damage control before they can bring any of them in.”

“It will need to be planned really carefully because one arrest is going to tip off the others, and then they will all scatter,” I point out.

“Exactly. They’ve got to have everyone in place and organized well enough that they can take down as many of them at once as they can,” Ty agrees.

Reed nods, “That sounds like a huge operation.”

Ty nods, “It is. We’re going to be pulling in a lot of agents.”

“Let us know if you need us,” Griff offers, and we all nod in agreement.

Ty smiles, “Thanks, guys, but not only is it not safe for you to be involved with Neith’s connection to HID, but you also have your plate full with other things.”

“Still, we can help organize or something if you need us to,” Ransom says.

“Okay, I’ll keep it in mind.” He replies and then gets back to the update, “We arrested Dimitri on the same day that you got pulled into the Choosing. He was coming back into the country, and we’re not sure why yet. He is being surprisingly helpful and cooperative.”

I can feel Coen’s gaze on me, but I stay staring at Ty as I swallow thickly. I really fucking hate that he’s in prison, and I fucking shouldn’t.

I know that.

“That doesn’t sound like the Dimitri we’ve had dealings with before?” Evander questions.
