The World Alliance for Supernatural Protection—aka WASP—exists to make sure humans never learn that supernatural creatures are more than just stories. When something goes wrong and a human learns the truth, WASP special operatives are sent to make it seem like nothing ever went amiss. WASP special operatives are highly trained to make such accidents vanish. Special Ops 13 is WASP’s secret weapon. When WASP calls on Special Ops 13, something has gone very, very wrong.

Five minutes until Tempest and Ariadne come to spirit my team and me away from Samson s Underground.

Everything is packed. Everything is ready. In the next room, a secret one whose entrance is hidden behind a large painting in Samson s office, Zoe and Rika are waiting for my fae assistants to arrive.

I don t deserve them. They re in danger because of me. If this plan fails….

Well, if this plan fails, none of us will live to tell the tale. And there s no use thinking about that now. We are not interested in the possibilities of defeat.

All that remains to handle, in these last five minutes, is the last goodbye.
