TWO YEARS PRIOR
when I agreed to take command of what was widely accepted as the deadliest
special operations forces in the world, it was with the understanding that my
days of babysitting operatives were at an end. It was foolishly naive of me.
It was what I spent most of my time doing.
The paramilitary team, known only as Unit 23, was made up of former Special
Air Service intelligence officers as well as Military Intelligence, Sections 5 and 6,
operatives. The expertise required of the men and women I commanded included
high-level surveillance, close-combat fighting, hostage rescue, and above all else,
assassination.
After receiving a missive from the chief of MI6, Archer “Z” Alexander—my equal
in rank and one of my sole confidants—requesting I encourage a member of my team
to cooperate with an investigation being conducted by a UN coalition, I balked.
“As you’re aware, Unit 23 does not participate in joint missions, Z.”
“This is different, Typhon. The United Nations has formed a five-task-force
coalition to fight against human trafficking. The best agents in the world have signed
on…”
I had too much respect for him to interrupt, so I let Z continue his attempt to sell
me on something I knew as much or more about as he did. I was the one who’d given
my blessing when Kai “Poseidon” Allora tapped Kima Sakari to join the coalition’s
Maltese task force, one of the five he’d mentioned.
While Kima, code name Delfino, was an adult able to make her own decisions,she
rarely did so without my input. It had been ingrained in her since she was a teenager,
and I did nothing to discourage her, either. I’d made a vow many years ago, and I never
broke a promise. Few knew of our connection, and we both wanted it kept that way.
Asfar asjoining Poseidon’steam specifically, both Kima’s mother and mine were
born in Malta. It wasn’t what had brought her and me together, though. The two
women hadn’t met until a few years ago.
It was Delfino’s mastery of the Maltese language that had made her most attractive
to the task force leader. It wasn’t a trait I shared; I barely understood the commonest
of phrases.
“I’m still not convinced, Z,” I said when I realized he was no longer speaking.
“Once I tell you who the target is, I predict you’ll have a change of heart.”
There wasn’t a snowball’s chance in hell, as they say, of that happening. I’d not
compromise the integrity of my unit to assist in anything sanctioned by the United
Nations. We weren’t fucking diplomats; we were the ones they turned to when they
didn’t want to do what they never could—the dirty work.
“We’re asking for Oleander’s help, Ty. We have a person of interest. Mithras.”
“You should’ve led with that, my friend.”
Oleander was the preeminent expert on terrorist cells and traffickers operating out
of the Eastern Mediterranean and Middle East. There’d been high-level intelligence
chatter about Mithras for the last several months, and O, as most of us called her,
