Begging
Once her sister disconnected, Cadence was alone in the world again, only the scarce sounds of the desert creatures around her and the vast expanse of sand and sky. Tempted to pick her book back up and just continue reading, she finally decided against it. She needed to let someone know what her sister had discovered.
It should’ve been Aaron, but it couldn’t be. She would talk to him again before the moon began to fill the night sky, but not now. It wasn’t quite 3:30, and if he found out now that she did have Elliott with her, he could still potentially find a way to reach her

Cadence’s hands were shaking as she carefully unzipped the backpack. “It’s go time, my friend,” she said as she took the plastic bag out of the backpack and carefully set it on the ground. She was hopeful that the bag would be empty when she put it away, but she reminded herself that she promised she wouldn’t pressure him into anything.In the other compartment, she’d tucked away the container she’d selected, an empty bucket from one of Elliott’s favorite establishments—KFC. It had gotten a bit smooshed, but she reshaped it and took both it
The Clandestine Saga Portal Closing
Without question, the portal was closing quickly now. The dancing blue lights began to knit together to form a solid fabric. Elliott said something else, but Cadence couldn’t understand him anymore, and as the blue lights began to fade and flicker, Cadence collapsed on the ground, overcome by her grief. She had thought that seeing her friend again would bring her closure, that at least having the chance to say the things to him she’d meant to say before he died would get rid of all of the regrets. But instead, all it had done was open fresh wounds. The fact that Elliott was happy made her feel slightly better, but it did very little to stop the throbbing pain in her heart. Aaron was right; she never should have done this. She should have let the healing process continue. She should h
The Clandestine Saga The Other Side
There was a zap of electricity, and the fresh smell of ozone being released into the air. Every part of her body began to tingle the moment she’d thrust her hand through the opening, but after having waited for over a year for such an occurrence, she had to take this chance, no matter what may lay on the other side.The depths of hell had been precisely what one might have guessed if they’d been privy to even one rough sermon from the pulpit of any branch or denomination of Christianity. She hadn’t had a moment of mercy since she found herself cast into fire and brimstone at
The Clandestine Saga Explanations
Cadence didn’t bother to try to hide her bike this time when Elliott pulled into the parking garage that adjoined Cale’s office building. Now that Aaron couldn’t try to stop her, it didn’t matter that everyone would see her—and Elliott. They would have a lot of explaining to do, and she realized that others might want to try to open the portal for various reasons if rumor got out how this was accomplished. She thought it best to tell everyone that Elliott was back but there would be no explanation of how it was accomplished and leave it at that.Walking through th

“So what happened after that?” Elliott asked, finally having processed all that she’d already told him.“Well,” Cadence began, taking the lid off of a bottle of water, “I beat the shit out of Laura, and we chased Camille down with the help of Cale’s choppers. Aaron shot her with one of the titanium bullets they’d used on us.”“Reall

“I have a son?” Elliott repeated for about the twentieth time in the last two minutes. Once again, Cadence confirmed for him that, yes, he had a son. And no, Brandon had not meant for Cassidy to get hurt.“He’s a good kid,” Cale assured the new-found father who sat staring at the ceiling, his large hands intertwined behind his head.“Anyway,” Cadence
The Clandestine Saga Embarrassment
The next morning, she awoke confused. She wasn’t sure where she was or how she’d gotten there at first, but within a few seconds, everything came rushing back to her, and without stopping to put on anything other than the long T-shirt and panties she threw on after her shower, she went flying out of the bedroom in a blur, afraid she’d dreamt the whole thing.Cadence heard his voice before she saw his face, but as soon as she came around the corner, the entire room froze, looking up at her, eyes wide. Elliott and Cale were not alone, and several other members of the Reno team

“Well, you know it wasn’t me,” Elliott assured her as they sat next to each other about an hour later on the plane Aaron had sent. “Until Christian can hook me up with another IAC, I’m completely cut off from the world.”She just nodded. At the end of the day, it didn’t really matter who had told Aaron about her faux pas, but when she’d exited the guest room to try to determine who the snitch was, everyone was gone except for Elliott and Cale, and the doctor insisted that he hadn’t even noticed, though Cadence didn’t believe him. He w
