even if the platoon’s senior enlisted member Chief Kurt Travers had been the one telling those stories. Logan was sure if he checked, he’d find a stick up Mack Hunt’s ass.
    “What did the feds want to talk about?” Nash asked. “I would have thought they’d have all their answers from the hours they spent questioning you and those two women on Saturday.”
    “I thought so, too,” Logan agreed. “But they kept going over what happened. They asked a lot of questions about our mission over in Syria, too.”
    Chasen looked at him sharply. “What did you tell them?”
    “Nothing at first since I didn’t know if I could,” Logan admitted. “But Hunt told me to spill the beans about everything.”
    The guys did a collective double take. SEALs rarely talked about what they did on their missions, even with the CIA and NSA.
    “You can’t tell me the Russians forcing a woman to bring a recording device onto base isn’t related to the pilot we were there to rescue,” Chasen said.
    “Yeah, no kidding,” Logan said. “No one would say it in so many words, but from the whispers I heard, the CIA and US Special Operations Command were meeting in the NSWC building on Saturday to discuss how badly everyone wants to get their hands on the pilot.”
    “Shit,” Dalton muttered. “The guy must have a buttload of information if the Russians were ballsy enough to send people to spy on the meeting.”
    “Maybe not,” Nash argued. “If it were so important, why would they grab up two women who didn’t have base access to do the job?”
    “I’m pretty sure they were the backup plan,” Logan said. “The Navy guy we found dead at the warehouse was the Coronado NAB security manager. One of the guys from the CIA said they found a hundred thousand dollars in an overseas account with the guy’s name on it. They assume he placed the monitoring device in the main conference room and was supposed to use the recording device outside the building. Either he got a conscience at the last minute or got greedy. Regardless, if the guy had done what the Russians had paid him for, they’d have had their information, and we never would have known. Until we went back to Syria for the pilot again and got our asses handed to us.”
    And his gut told him they would be going back there.
    “What about those three guys we caught?” Chasen asked. “Are they saying anything?”
    Logan shook his head. “Not a damn thing. Those guys know there’s nothing we can do to make them talk.”
    Like there was a lot he and his fellow SEALs didn’t know about the Russian pilot.
    “Speaking of beautiful women with guns,” Dalton said. “Is the one who took you hostage going to get into trouble?”
    “No. That’s never even been a consideration,” Logan told him. “I made sure the cops and the feds recognized Felicia and Stef were the victims here. Felicia only did what she had to, and I was never in any danger.”
    Dalton gave him a sidelong glance. “If I didn’t know better, I’d think you were a little protective of her.”
    Logan opened his mouth to say no, but then he thought about it and decided yeah, he did feel protective of Felicia and her sister.
    “Maybe,” he admitted. “But it’s only because I have a date with Felicia on Friday night.”
    “You asked a woman out for a date after she and her sister were held hostage by a group of terrorists?” Chasen let out a snort. “Man, that’s seriously messed up.”
    “It was her idea,” Logan said. “She asked me to come over to her place for dinner as a way of thanking me for helping her out.”
    “Uh-huh,” Nash said.
    Logan shook his head with a laugh. “Guys, it’s just dinner.”
    “And is she aware you’re allergic to relationships?” Dalton asked.
    “Look who’s talking,” Logan countered. “Okay, first off, I’m not allergic to relationships . I simply haven’t found a woman I feel serious enough about to bother getting deeply involved. And second, I never
