What?

The?

Hell?

Who was this new man?

Zayn fell over again, but this time, it was because Jagger shoved him into the fountain before he could say something smart.

Dakota laughed.

“See you guys later.”

Oh, they would. Hopefully, when he told them all about it, the story didn’t start with ‘I fucked this up’.

AGAIN.

When he left, they headed in, and the ladies were working on their plans.

It was time to get some shit done before this city went to the dogs again.

“What do we have?” Jagger asked as they snagged fresh coffee, and got ready for an update.

Maura clued him in.

“Well, we called the precinct. Two of the cops in the dossier from Elizabeth are partners, and they are at work together.”

Jagger sat beside his wife and knew she’d be using that to figure out a way to get to them.

“Okay, and do you have a plan?” he asked.

She smiled.

“Do you know me at all, Husband?” she asked. “Of course, I have one. This is my thing, after all.”

There was no doubt there.

“What is it?” Zayn asked.

Because they all needed to be in on this since this was a massive undertaking, Maura broke it down for them.

“Well, what if we put a call into the department where the cops work, make a fake missing person report, and have them come to our place to check on it?”

Rogue laughed.

“Our place?” he asked.

Maura smiled at him.

“Uh-oh. That’s the ‘Maura wants to do something crazy’ look, and now, it’s pointed at me.”

Oh, he was right about that.

“Well, that is where you come in, Rogue. We need you to steal us a house.”

He laughed at first.

And then realized the Major was NOT kidding.
