Brian sat in the interrogation room with Customs agents Dunn and Markham. His hands were in cuffs behind his back but he kept them uneasy with his easy sprawl and nonchalant attitude. He kept looking between the two men trying to figure out what was up but he didn't know the full story until he saw BIlkins waiting by the window. BIlkins walked in and said, "Hey O' Conner. Nice to finally see you again."

Brian didn't acknowledge his greeting and kept his eyes diverted to just over Markham's shoulder staring at the corner. He wondered what the hell Bilkins had up his sleeve but he would find out before he was extradited back to LA for prosecution. Markham moved out of Brian's sightline as it had become a bit unnerving and glanced at Bilkins. "So is this who you're looking for?"

"Oh yeah." Bilkins sneered. "The one and only Brian O' Conner - star of the LAPD until he met his Alpha and let him go."

"Ouch." Dunn commented from behind his ever present drink cup.

Brian turned his glare on Dunn and Dunn stumbled back into the wall. He might be a Beta but he wasn't going to mess with Brian when it came to a power struggle. Bilkins brought Brian's attention back to him when he said, "Let's go chat O' Conner." He dangled the keys to the cuffs in front of Brian and Brian growled. Bilkins tossed the keys on top of the table as he said, "I'm not going to touch you." Brian stood up taking the keys in his fingers and unlocked his hands.

Brian rubbed his wrists a bit and BIlkins jerked his thumb over his shoulder and left the room. Brian moved out of the room not paying the other two agents any mind and followed BIlkins up to the roof. He took a deep breath and felt himself relax a little more being above the city. He hadn't been in his wolf form since he ran from LA and that had been two months ago. He thought of Dom and the beach he was enjoying down in Baja and he wanted to whimper but he held himself together.

Bilkins looked at the ever present silent man and started to realize that was part of the reason he got his nickname - Snowman. After a few minutes and Brian still not talking Bilkins broke the silence. "Need your help." Bilkins wanted to die telling Brian he needed an Omega's help but Brian was probably the only one to help.

"Doing what?" Brian said as he walked along the roof trying to get his body to calm down and his mind to relax.

"We've been working with Customs to try and get to the known drug lord Carter Verone. He's been a pain in the ass here in Miami."

"What if I say no?" Brian said as he rolled his shoulders trying to put his hackles down around Bilkins.

"Then I'll take you back to LA and you'll go to jail for a really long time." Bilkins said as he looked over Brian who was keeping his distance from him.

"What do I need to do?" Brian asked wearily. He was still working on compartmentalizing his feelings for Dom and the depth of their bond already without it being official. The scar on his throat he wore proudly as he'd get back to Dom soon but he supposed a couple of undercover legal hoops he could jump through to get back a little faster.

"For starters we're going to pair you with Dunn in there..."

Brian growled, "Nuh-uh. He doesn't know an engine from a damn pizza place. I find my number two."

"Who do you have in mind?"

"An old friend of mine, Roman Pearce." Brian said testing the waters.

"Is he here in town?" Bilkins asked.

"Back in Barstow." Brian said as he scratched his neck near his scar.

"Missing your Alpha?" Bilkins asked taking the first step towards being a touch friendly with Brian.

"No." But on the inside Brian could feel his wolf nature curled around something and whimpering quietly.

Bilkins kept his distance and said, "Alright we'll go get your friend. The thing is is that you'll be running what he wants you to run. You just tell us when and where his money and he'll be at the same time so we can arrest him. Then you'll be free to do what you want."

"Serious?" Brian asked looking west and going to the edge of the roof.

"I'm serious O' Conner. We need the best and you're the best outside the hijacking case you had two months ago."

Brian interrupted with a growl, "Don't remind me."

Bilkins held his hands up in surrender. "I'm sorry Brian."

Brian went back to the door to the stairs and said, "Let's get this over with so I can go home."

"You know they aren't in LA." Bilkins clarified.

Brian had his hand on the door handle and his back stiffened. He wanted to yell and scream but he kept it inside and just went back downstairs where Markham and Dunn were talking quietly in the hallway. He leaned against the wall with his arms crossed and his eyes focussed on the far corner of the hallway while he waited for Bilkins to join them. He wasn't talking unless he had to.
