How the hell had this happened?
He had made it very clear to Granger that he needed to lay low, stay out of the spotlight and wait for his orders.
All he was meant to do was train the rogues, not lead them on a suicide mission to Summer!
The only good thing that had come out of this mess was learning that Caleb was not crippled.
Holden was rather angry to realize he had been fooled. Caleb was good. He’d give him that.
“Do not do anything else!” Holden shouted on the phone.
“Fine,” Granger sighed. “Why bother telling me he was vulnerable if you didn’t expect me to do something about it.”
“I didn’t expect you to act like an idiot!” Holden growled.
Granger laughed.
“What’s the big deal,” he said. “It’s not like you actually care about these rogues.”
Holden sighed.
“It’s not about affection. It’s about understanding your place and not overstepping!”
Granger growled in response.
