Garret's Gambit by Dale Mayer (best sci fi novels of all time txt) 📕

“Take it easy,” Ice said, her voice calm and reassuring. “What do you mean, they’re all gone?”

“All their abilities are gone,” he said. “Something’s happened to them. Somebody has deliberately removed whatever super senses they could utilize—or what we have been utilizing for the last ten years for the government.” His tone was bitter. “When the US gov recently closed us down, they promised that our black ops department would never rise again, but I didn’t expect them to attack us personally.”

“What are you talking about?” Merk said in alarm, standing up now to stare at Ice’s phone. “Are you in danger?”

“Maybe? I don’t know,” Terk said. “I need to find out exactly what the hell’s going on.”

“What can we do to help?” Ice asked.

Terk gave a broken laugh. “That’s not why I’m calling. Well, it is, but it isn’t.”

Ice looked at Merk, who frowned, as he shook his head. Ice knew he and the others had heard Terk’s stressed out tone and the completely confusing bits and pieces coming from his mouth. Ice said, “Terk, you’re not making sense again. Take a breath and explain. Please. You’re scaring me.”

Terk took a long slow deep breath. “Tell Stone to open the gate,” he said. “She’s out there.”

“Who’s out there?” Levi asked, hopped up, looked outside, and shrugged.

“She’s coming up the road now. You have to let her in.”

“Who? Why?”

“Because,” he said, “she’s also harnessed with C-4.”

“Jesus,” Levi said, bolting to display the camera feeds to the big screen in the room. “Is it live?”

“It is, and she’s been sent to you.”

“Well, that’s an interesting move,” Ice said, her voice sharp, activating her comm to connect to Stone in the control room. “Who’s after us?”

“I think it’s rebels within the Iranian government. But it could be our own government. I don’t know anymore,” Terk snapped. “I also don’t know how they got her so close to you. Or how they pinned your connection to me,” he said. “I’ve been very careful.”

“We can look after ourselves,” Ice said immediately. “But who is this woman to you?”

“She’s pregnant,” he said, “so that adds to the intensity here.”

“Understood. So who is the father? Is he connected somehow?”

There was silence on the other end.

Merk said, “Terk, talk to us.”

“She’s carrying my baby,” Terk replied, his voice heavy.

Merk, his expression grim, looked at Ice, her face mirroring his shock. He asked, “How do you know her, Terk?”

“Brother, you don’t understand,” Terk said. “I’ve never met this woman before in my life.” And, with that, the phone went dead.
