Chapter 23

"We need to know exactly when he plans on letting them attack us. Do you know anyone close enough to him that would tell us his deepest secrets?" I ask Braydon as we make our way back to the entrance.

"If I had to guess, no one. James may have been with us for a long time but he seems to keep to himself most of the time. The only people he was closest to was your father and his wife, Astrid."

My father wasn't that close to him because every spare moment he had was with me. But then again, as second in command, father had to spend some of his time with James. "What happened at the attack on the humanoid base?"

It's a question I refused to ask since that dreadful day. But I have to know what happened. There could be some leads in it that could help figure out when James made the deal.
