The ti when a decision would have to be made

• • •

Gideon stared at the wall across fro her mate to believe in her

Lawe Justice was a hell of a Breed soldier, as was his brother, Rule Breaker Gideon didn’t think much of their choice of names, but they did seem to rather suit them

This, this bothered hih

Not that he should care either way Hell, the more conflicted the tere the easier it would be to keep them distracted and to learn more about them

The fact that they hadahead of their little bug detectors was getting harder by the day This one wasn’t as strong as the others, and there was a lot he missed of any conversation White noise, which Breedsmissions, would completely incapacitate it But information such as this was damned useful as well

Lawe and Diane weren’t at their peak fighting abilities because ofheat That would make them weaker, slower And they were the leaders, the commanders With any luck, the others wouldn’t feel the need to work over or around the two They trusted the them to remain immersed in each other while he found Fawn

Her big dark eyes, so filled with tears “Give him my blood,” she sobbed out to Judd “Don’t you let hiht air seeped into Gideon’s bones “Don’t you dare, or I swear, I swear I’ll make you pay”

And Gideon had been dying He had wanted to die God knows it would have been such a relief, to slip over that edge of nothingness and find eternal rest

She had denied death to hied and she had ordered, until Judd had found a medical kit in the transport vehicle As fate had had it, there was a transfusion kit too, and she gave him her blood

They had saved him, and he hadn’t wanted to be saved He’d been too weak to stop thelare at her in hatred

He’d known that by saving hiht

He’d tried to forgive her He’d fought to get the memory out of his head Then, a decade later, he was forced to allow his recapture to get into the labs once more to destroy the records kept on Judd, Fawn and Honor To ensure that no DNA matches could be found when he’d learned the Branden for them

The suspicion that Judd and Faeren’t dead revived every few years, but this time, General Horace Roberts, desperate to find his only child, had demanded they search until Honor was found That they search until it was proven that the others had died He was certain his daughter would never have run aithout help and the only friends she had known had been Judd, Gideon and Fawn Gideon had planned it perfectly He was certain he would have at least a feeeks before the testing began again
