"Why are you all, upset? This is a good thing." Explanation time. "Let the Cult think they have us all figured out. Meanwhile, we're 10 steps ahead of them." That's what Ben said from the beginning. The man handed the letter back to Evander.

Ben got a withering look for that. For one thing, the cult had never had Evander figured out, that was why they were so irked at him in general, because despite everything, they hadn't known who he was when he'd first run into them in his undercover days. For another thing,

"It is never a good thing to have your family threatened. Ever. " However, Ben was right about one thing. The next step in Evander's plan, he'd not shared with anyone. The cultists wouldn't know because there was nobody that D'Isigny or Gevrik -wherever that man was -could suck the knowledge out of.

Despite what they all seemed to think, Van never showed his whole hand.

He took the letter and avoided looking at it.

"Sir, I might not be willing to jump feet first into this fight without understanding everything that's at stake, but you can trust that I won't betray your confidences. You said at the staff meeting that you put your faith in your department, but in my opinion, that means everyone is contributing toward the common enemy and that one person's word of caution carries as much weight as another's gusto. My experience dictates that you trust those you can, but that you never take for granted that allegiances change." Not that hers had, but if he continued to suggest it, she wouldn't try to change his mind.

"No. You never do, but its sure as hell a quick way of finding out who runs off to tell momma when they hear something they don't like." Van held the letter out, for Cade to take and read if she wished to.

Still, the man was getting hold of himself once more. Van straightened.

He ignored Damien in the way that people do when they're entirely comfortable with their presence. Completely aware of, and yet unconcerned by him. Trusty part of the furniture, the D-Man was.
