Despite the rush, Blue had planned the rescue meticulously, yet he found himself unprepared. He’d split the group into three, in the hope that if one group was captured the others might escape. Kenshin waited outside the encampment gates with the FetchMes. Kali was with Igor and Zeke. They were already inside the building carrying out the rescue. Blue had considered going with her, but it was best he kept her away, to keep his mind clear. He had reviewed many possible scenarios and had determined he’d be more useful guarding them. He’d been right, of course. The downside to not having her in his line of sight was the worry the Hybrid he’d charged with her care could not keep her safe. Blue knew it was illogical to assume Igor would not follow his orders when the male had displayed nothing but obedience and competence. This gave him comfort. Needed, as he stared at a considerably large complication. Lara, Max and Christabella were with him, and because of the recent arrival had been thrust into substantial danger.
