Enemy Among Us

Chapter 8

Cara's P.O.V

After sparing with Sam I called Chris and asked him to pick up breakfast and donuts, and for good measure some Twinkies.

"Twinkies, really?" he laughed. "I didn't think you ate those."

"Shut Chris, I do not, my sister does."

"Ah the other Blye sister can't wait to meet her." just by the tone of his voice I knew what he was thinking.

"Do not even think about it, she is taken…..well semi taken."

"So that means I have a chance."

"Just get the damn breakfast before I reach through this phone and knock you on your ass." I went into Alpha mode because this train of thought was starting to get on my nerves.

"Yes Alpha." His voice dropped. "Your mother called said she should be at LAX this evening."

"Good, make sure she gets here safe. If something happens it is on you. Got it?" my voice was steel.

"Loud and clear."

I swiftly hung up. I know that he was my husband's brother but damn that man needed to keep it in his pants. He was well past the age for a mate, sometimes the Fates through a wrench in the natural way of things.

I walked into the Bullpen and silently watched as Kensi dug through her desk draws looking for anything that could settle that rumbling that my wolf ears were picking up. The look of concentration on her face brought a smile to my face, she was so zoned on looking for something to eat that she didn't hear me, but Deeks did. He was digging through his draws but looked up when I leaned against the grate behind her desk.

He realized why I was smiling and his face broke into a grin as well. The way that scruffy man looked at my sister warmed my heart. For the longest of times I feared that Kensi would wind up alone because of her fear. She once told me, after Dom's death that she felt cursed that any and every man she was close to, whether romantically or just friendly seemed to leave her. But when she was a year into her partnership with Deeks, after the laser room case I heard something shift in her voice. I knew she wasn't ready to admit it to herself, but the way she spoke about how he pulled her from that room and to safety, if was filled with hidden and denied love.

Maybe, just maybe something would come out of this whole debacle with Jack. Looking back to Deeks I held my finger to him to signal silence. And with practiced silent steps I snuck up behind her. as soon as I was directly behind her I felt her stiffen and with a laugh my fingers latched on her side, making her squeal as I tickled her sides. She tried to pull away but I was quick to grab her sides again cause=ing her to laugh genuinely, something I wonder whether or not she did anymore.

Finally I plopped down in Callen's chair wheeling it back and away. "You will pay for that Cara." Her eyes would scare any criminal but I saw the mirth behind the gaze.

"Looking for food, say…." I raised a hand theatrically. "A Twinkie?"

"Ha, I am liking your sister more and more princess."

"Well I am very lovable so I have been told." I smirked at my sister.

"Yea a lovable mutt." Deeks barked out laughter and I grabbed my heart in mock hurt and leaned back smiling.

"You speak so ill of someone who called in for breakfast, complete with donuts and Twinkies." She tried to hide her excitement but failed miserably.

"You are lucky I love you Cara."

"I think the entire team loves you right now Cara because Kensi without sugar can be scary." Deeks murmured.

I turned to him with a smirk. "Can you imagine her as a wolf without her sugar or caffeine." I shivered for effect as she punched me on the shoulder.

"Ah I see that isn't limited to just me."

"Keep it up and I will come over there and knock you on your ass." Kensi threatened.

Any retort was cut off by the sound of the metal door to the mission open and close. Kensi and I drew out swords and Deeks upholstered his gun. And poor Chris, walking in with three weapons trained on him and his arms filled with food.

"Why hello to you too Alpha." His eyes went to my twin sister and I could see the unholy thoughts going through his head. Deeks and Kensi were oblivious, and blinded by the food.

When the food was taken from him I glared at him. He kept his eyes trained to the floor, no one dared look into the Alpha's eyes unless for a challenge of authority. "You stay away from her do you understand me." My voice was low and threatening.

"Come on Cara, I don't see a ring on her finger, she is free game."

As a low growl emanated from my throat he slumped his shoulders and cowered, making himself smaller than he was. "Just because she has no ring does not mean her heart is not taken. You will stay away from her Chris that is an order from you Alpha." He nodded. "Good, now go up to the bunk room and sleep you look like shit."

Without a glance he left. He had always tried my patience as his leader and needed constant reminding who was in charge.

By now the whole team even Hetty gathered round to savor their breakfast. Callen turned to me and nodded. "Thanks Cara we were all pretty hungry."

I shrugged as I found my order. "No problem I figured you would be hunger." I looked over at my sister and laughed. "Kens, sweetie I know I am your sister but for the love of everything good can you eat your breakfast burrito BEFORE your donut!" the whole team chuckled as she glared at me with a smile and sat her donut down and taking her breakfast from my outstretched hand.

"Fine."

For several minutes we ate in silence, Eric and Nell were permitted to eat up in OPS so they could continue working. Callen and Sam we on the couch and me Kens and Deeks sat on the stair well. And that brought a memory from the past.

"Kens do you remember when we sat on the stairwell in high school for lunch?" she thought for a moment before a smile stretched her lips.

"Yea, but more precisely I remember you taking my grapes and chucking them as people walking by. Then one day you hit a teacher and man I had never seen you run so fast as you tried to hide."

"Hey I didn't try to hide I succeeded."

"yea then the next day he saw me and thought I was you and proceeded to unjustly yell at me."

Beside her Deeks began silently laughing so hard that he was turning red with tears running down his eyes. she punched him in the arm but it only made him laugh harder.

"You are giving him far too much ammunition."

"Oh like you did not do that when me and Alex met."

"Ah so this is pay back is it?" I simply nodded. She was about to continue when her phone chimed. Thinking it was just a text from our mother I went back to eating.

But as soon as Kensi tensed and dropped her food back into its container me and Deeks looked to her in fear. "What is it?" he asked, his voice laced with concern.

It is an email, with a video attachment from Jack. It is for both of us."

"Ms. Blye please take it up to OPS while I gather everybody." She nodded and we followed her. I had to prepare myself because I knew Jack was playing some sick game in his mind and my sister was his play thing.

After everyone was gathered Nell hit play.

Jack appeared on the screen, his black hair was greased back and his green eyes were cold and hard, his smile more of a sneer.

"So, Kensi, my love, has he run yet?" he seemed to be looking right at Kensi and that made my blood boil. Deeks stepped just a bit closer, his shoulder touching hers.

"Cara, how does it feel that I once again got the drop on you? you must feel pretty useless as an Alpha when you can't even protect your sister." I growled at the screen.

"Here is the thing Blye sisters, I know everything about everybody watching this video, I know your strengths and your weaknesses. You Cara, figurehead of the war, have a leak. Someone close to you has betrayed you, giving me this treasure trove of information. So before I take everything away from Kensi for betraying our engagement, I will take the love of her life." He brought a hand up to his chin as if contemplating something. "I wonder whether it will be Marty's death or the death of her team, or family as you call them that will engage the long overdue change. And you Cara know what a wolf with nothing to live for is capable of, how unstable and unstoppable they are. I will find you and I will make her burn."

The video ended and I closed my eyes.

"What does that mean, a wolf with nothing to loose?" Callen asked turning to me.

I sighed opening my eyes and looking him in the eye. "A few years ago a wolf that me and Kensi grew up with, lost his mate. She was human and her mind could not accept what he was, she called him a monster. If the woman he loved believed him to be a monster than a monster he was." I saw Deeks nodding, so I assumed that Kens told him the story. "He killed his entire pack, twenty wolves, from the elderly all the way down to the pups, some less than a year old. When I got there he was poised to kill another pack, and I had to put my childhood friend down."

Callen looked solemn as he looked at me, finally he nodded. "I'm sorry."

"It is fine. What we need to work on here is a mole. Someone is feeding information to Jack making this all that more dangerous."
