Chapter 87th

Melissa Anderson was enjoying herself at her father's ranch after riding for an hour with him riding around the perimeter of his ranch belonging to his father for over 100 years.

She always loved to ride the thoroughbreds that her father raises on occasion for racing. And this special breed name Greybird age 2 retired from racing with a record of 12 wins and one lost. She had brought him back into the barn with the handler taking over.

One thing for sure she was hungry with dinner is supposed to be ready soon. As the cooks were going to put together some feast with her return.

Even her father after nine months was glad to have finished up the undercover operation in Harrisburg. He had missed her a great deal with being the only child with her mother Louise dying from breast cancer five years back to really upset her father greatly.

Walking back into the house her father was sitting down on the couch inside the specious living room with her smelling something really delicious to her nose. "Dinner is just about ready Melissa. Why don't you go upstairs and clean up after reiding?"

"Sure pop!" she has always called him that ever since she a little girl from what she was able to remember.

Damon and his brother Joshua were celebrating in the office with the whiskey and Scotch along with finishing each a Cuban cigar with the truck completed with no accidents. All of the employees had gone home for the evening with four more to go during the next few days.

Joshua was talking about on where he was going to stay while he's here.

"I have just the right place for you, brother. I will take you there in a few minutes with checking all of the exits. It used to be my girlfriend's place until she left early this morning with going to the airport to head back to Washington, D.C." He cried out with moving up from the chair.

However Joshua had a question as to why. "Auriel aka Melissa Anderson was an undercover agent to get close to me and the business reporting back to the DOD and NCIS. I have hired two men to be going after her and with taking the bitch out."

"I will go help you with checking the exits." he gets up from his chair to check with his brother.

Meanwhile the team outside were finished for the night with having left the area with enough photos to last a lifetime.

Nick Torres was never so glad to have this evening ending with needing to pick something up to eat at the diner as with everyone else. And including calling his wife Eleanor to find out on how his son were doing without him.

He had picked up a Roast Beef clubs filled with all of the goodies along with a large milkshake. While Lt, Brown picked up two turkey club sandwiches with the works for himself and his girlfriend Victoria Tyler even though she had accepted his ring to be married.

Once they arrived back at the motel. Senior Field Agent was finally arriving from the hospital with other NCIS agents from the local district were taking over with the protection detail for Special Agent Gibbs.

He asked Torres and Brown on how the operation was going tonight.

"You're not going to believe this McGee. But Damon now has his brother Joshua Garcia from Somalia, Paraguay to help him out with the deliveries and with the entire Cartel business." Lt. Brown said to the team leader.

"I heard. Special Agent Gibbs is especially pissed off with the news that his brother now has joined him." McGee stated with the information exhausted. "Listen I need to get some rest before meeting up with Colonel Mann of the Operation BOOM in the morning. Good night everyone." he said with a loud yawn.

Colonel Mann was liking his hotel suite given to them as a special favor from the DOD and NCIS. He had taken out his phone to call his wife Ann though at times she will stay up waiting for him to call on all of the missions.

She had been on the Internet reading a great deal of the fanfiction stories before realizing that she heard the phone vibrating next to her. She looked to see that it was her husband calling with answering the phone.

"Hey Babe! How are you this evening?" she asked with concern for his fear of flying.

"I was able to get through with the flight Ann. And by the way I love you a great deal." he cries out over the phone.

"I love you to James. How's the hotel room?"

"Really nice. Actually a big suite with all of the team getting the same treatment and very expensive no doubt?" he said with a smirk on his face enjoying it while it lasts. "By the way have you heard from the boys?"

"Not yet! But they will soon when they're ready James."

"Listen I am just checking in with needing to get some sleep Ann. Please don't stay up all right reading?" he makes mention knowing his wife really well.

"I was just about done when your phone started to vibrate. Good night Babe."

"Night to you to." He hangs up the phone to place it onto the table next to bed with removing his black robe to head on over to the queen size bed and with pulling down the blue cotton blankets.
