Follow any recommendations he gives you, until I get there." "Yes, sir." The comm beeped as the connection terminated. Jack looked down at Alité who was curled up against him, sound asleep, the blanket pulled up to her ear. "Fritz," he snapped his fingers, "come..." The sleepy Shepherd slid off the sofa in the other room and plodded through the suite into the bedroom. He stopped at the foot of the bed and shook himself to settle his coat. Jack could see the green glow of the dog's electronic eye in the darkness and called him up onto the bed to lay next to Alité.
