“I just wanted to congratulate you all on the baby, you will take wonderful parents, I’m sure,” she says. 

“Any time you need to talk, just call us. It doesn’t matter the time. We will do anything to repair our relationship with you, Son,” my biological father says and I manage to d but my anger builds.

It’s going to take a lot more for me to forgive my fathers. They should have been able to protect us all and they failed. Josie places a hand on my arm and Theo touches my back, the both of them instantly calming me. 

“Hey, remember when you were compelled to hate me yesterday? It’s not too different to what they have been through. When we have dealt with the rogues, we should have D check their minds for compulsion. He can find out how much was done to them and how much of it was their own actions,” Josie says into the mind link. I nod in agreement. 

“Once things calm down would you be willing to have one of my bond group scan you for compulsion? He is very skilled at it and will be able to tell what was done to you and remove any lasting effects if there are any,” I ask, watching my parent’s reactions for any nervousness or reluctance. 

“Yes, of course. That would be great,” my mum grins and my fathers agree eagerly. 

“Then we will talk then, for now, we have a lot to do,” I say before motioning towards the door. 

My parents walk ahead and I follow them out with Josie’s hand in mine. Once we get out the door, Theo takes her other hand and Dot and her bond group walk beside us. We get back to the grand hall and Deacon rushes towards 

Us. 

“We have the meet and greet narrowed down to two locations based on an algorithm that Luke helped come up with,” he says as he hands a file each to me, Josie and Theo. 

We take a seat and study the files. The first one is a public park, this one is marked as the most likely location. Still shots of security camera footage show an increase in police presence in the area and vendors setting up with refreshment stands. A stage is also being erected and I agree, this looks like a good lead. 

The second location is a religious building, it’s apparently used for Royal ceremonies and security is usually tight. There is increased security on site and it fits all the other requirements. 

“Can someone get me a computer?” Josie asks as she studies the files. 

Luke rushes over, placing a laptop in front of her. She quickly starts typing and clicks through a few web pages. 

“There’s apparently a concert happening in this park tomorrow,” she hums. 

“So we can rule the park out?” Luke asks, sounding disappointed. 

“Give me a minute,” she says as she focuses on the screen. 

We all watch as she quickly navigates through page after page. More people crowd around us as she works, curious about what she is doing. Then she sits back in her chair with a triumphant grin. 

“Got va 

ya,” she smirks. “It’s in the park,” 

“How do you know?” someone asks. 

“Because there are posters advising the park is closed to the public for a concert tomorrow, but there has been no talk of this concert online until the last few days. People are asking who is playing and no one is able to answer. There are also no tickets available and no one has admitted to having a ticket. That tells me there is no concert, it is a ruse,” she explains.

“That’s good enough for me,” Raff says, “We plan our main ambush on the park. Have a backup plan made for the Cathedral but our main focus is the park,” he barks out orders. 

“Where did everyone go?” Josie asks, looking around the room and noticing there are only military here now. 

“The civilian volunteers are all out on the fields going through some basic training. The six of you need to come with me. I need you to show me what we are working with so we can come up with a plan of action based on your skills,” Raff says. 

Our bond group stands up and Raff calls a small team to accompany us to their training grounds. They port us all there and I am less than impressed to find we are standing in the middle of a barren field. Apart from a few old tyres, there seems to be nothing around us for miles. Considering we are with the highest and most talented military team I expected a little more than a field as their training grounds.

I wrote this chapter yesterday, and when I woke up this morning I convinced myself there was a huge plot hole I needed to fix before I publish it. Now I can’t find the plot hole or remember what it was. At this point, I’m starting to think that I may have been dreamin
