“Who?” she asked again.

“We missed an asset. It’s registered to El Gato.”

She opened her eyes.

What?

“How the hell is that possible? We literally used CIA software to pull up anything he owned and take it out. We took out apartments, warehouses, boats, cars…how the hell did we miss a private jet?”

Boone clued her in.

“We searched here. The CIA doesn’t have a full list from every country, Mar. If Chevy knew where El Gato was stashing things, like in Germany, he could have used that. We tried.”

Now, she needed to know.

“Is this a new asset or an old one?”

No one answered, and that told her the answer.

They didn’t have a clue.

“Oh, she’s gonna blow,” Zayn admitted.

No, she wouldn’t. She was just tired.

“I know. I’m sorry. I’m cranky.”

Jagger took the time to explain so that they were all on the same page. They’d planned on not saying anything until they could confirm it with a doctor, but…

The family had to know what was at stake for him.

“She’s also pregnant,” he said.

That took a whole two seconds to register before the family was all staring at her and Jagger.

“Well, holy shit. The little soldier’s even littler soldiers got the job done. They had to use ladders to reach that egg, but hey…,” Zayn said.

Jagger laughed and flipped him off.

“You’re ridiculous.”

Yeah, he was.

“Mar, congrats!” Rogue said, getting up to go hug her. She accepted it, and he picked her off the ground in a bear hug. “We’re thrilled for you guys.”

They all were.

They’d been heartbroken when they found out they’d miscarried and worried about how much Jagger could take before he had a mental breakdown.

They took turns hugging her.

When Jagger slipped the beads into Boone’s hand when he shook it, he winked.

Only, he didn’t get away with it.

“Oh, hell, no,” Merry said, walking over to her husband, holding out her hand, and taking them from him. “I’m stopping this right now. We don’t need me and Jinx pregnant too. We already have three women with children. We’ll open a vortex,” she said, walking to the kitchen.

They all heard the garbage disposal go on.
