Aiden had never bowed to anyone in his life.  The facetious spark in his eyes paired with the knowing smirk on his face all but confirmed the former and the latter for Cara.
                  “I must consider what I have learned of you in our few short encounters. I will definitely be in touch, but for what reason I cannot yet say. Until next we meet, Hunter.”
                  Aiden turned away and left, leaving Cara more confused about his intentions and motives than ever.

                  “S he is not going. As Field Director all field assignments and active hunters fall under my command. Which means I have the final say about who is assigned what missions and Cara will not be undertaking this one. Select someone else for the assignment Director Ford.”
                  Reiya could be one frightening bitch when she was standing up for something that she believed in or someone she loved. Her loyalty was unwavering. It was one of the many reasons Cara loved her like a sister.
                  “With all due respect Ms. Montgomery, the Dark Prince himself contacted our office and requested Cavanaugh. Perhaps you should put your personal feelings aside. We have a huge opportunity here. The vampires are a secretive group. We know very little about the species other than what they allow us to find out. Working alongside one of them, especially one in his position, could provide Cavanaugh an opportunity to get close enough to learn their weaknesses. We may end up with information that makes it a hell of a lot easier to hunt the bloodsuckers down.”
                  Cara did not like the Executive Director much. She regarded him along with everyone else in the executive branch of the North American Division of Hunters or N.A.D.H for short as a bunch of overstuffed bureaucratic windbags too afraid to do any real work and get their hands dirty. Though she grudgingly had to admit that the work they did was just as important to the Division. Whereas the Field Operations Branch was responsible for doing the nitty gritty work like tracking down and killing vampires that had gone too far, the Executive Operations Branch was responsible for handling the day to day runnings of N.A.D.H like managing its funds and acting as a liaison with the government. When Ford did not back down in the face of one very scary and very pissed of Reiya it gave Cara a new level of respect for him. Many men before the director had attempted to stand up to her and ended up turning tail or giving in. She knew she should stop eavesdropping outside the cracked door of Reiya’s office and intervene but she held off for a few moments longer. She was having too much fun listening to the banter between Reiya and Ford.
                  “It is Director Montgomery, and with all due respect Director Ford, I do not give a rat’s ass about how advantageous this assignment could be to the Division. I am not forcing Cara into the lion’s den. I am sure there are plenty other operatives who would jump at the opportunity. Pick one, any one. Just not Cara,” Reiya all but yelled.
                  Cara grinned impishly and decided she was a horrible friend for not immediately marching into Reiya’s office and putting a stop to their bickering. The decision was hers to make after all, if you could even call it a decision. Cara had made her decision the moment she heard about the request, but for different reasons than Director Ford. Cara was positive Aiden had an end game and what better way to find out exactly what it was and shove a wrench right in the middle of his schemes than to work up close and personal with him. Besides if she was working alongside Aiden he had a clear path to get to her and would no longer need to go through her family and friends. The farther away she could keep them from him the better off and safer they would be.
