What she'd said yesterday had settled into something clear. I didn't need to chase it or push it. She'd meant it. That was enough for now. I took the elevator down and rode to the compound. Dante was already inside when I walked in. Folder open, phone beside him, coffee going cold. He looked up once and slid a stack of papers toward my chair. Kane came in right behind me, still answering a message on his phone. Ryder was at the back
