Just before sending the team back to my place for their safety I pulled Ray aside to address a few things and give him his orders and the safe word that is the only way he is to open the door or ever bring any of them into town or even leave the house.
"Sir you wanted to talk with me?" asked Ray as he walked up to me and the DA while the rest of the team was gathering to et ready for their evacuation.
"Yes. Detective O'Hare no mater what your sister, Damien or even Officer Snow try to do or say you are at no point allowed to bring them into town especially here unless I first give you the safe word." I instructed, "You have command of the team and I need them to stay working but also relaxing and focusing on the case and their safety."
"You know they will not like that one bit." confessed Ray as he glanced over at the team, "Sir why can't you come with us?"
