Seconds turned to minutes. Minutes turned to hours and finally Doc. Warren typed in the code to unlock Diana's room. Henry jumped up as Doc came in with nurses pushing three beds into the room. "Bosses," Henry said as he rushed over to the beds.

"They are sleeping," Doc Warren said as he placed the beds beside their Queen.

"How are they?" Henry asked.

"They are bruises and have some cuts but nothing needing surgery. I am just keeping them to watch for internal bleeding and concussions but so far nothing that raises concern so far," Doc said as he looked over Diana. "Has she woken?"

"No," Henry shook his head. "I thought she would wake by now but she hasn't. Should we be worried about that?"

"No," Doc shook his head, "The more she sleeps the better chance she has to recover without complications. Besides if she were to wake right now, it would just put her under more stress that she doesn't need right now."

Henry nodded and sat back down on the couch. "I need to go look at the house," he said after a few moments of silence. "I have to look."

"There is nothing but rubble," Doc shook his head. "You need to be here to watch over them."

"Nothing on the rest of security?" Henry asked and Doc shook his head again.

"They said they were all alone when they went to get the body," Doc whispered, "there is no word on where they are."

"IS IT TRUE?!?!"

"What in the hell?" Doc Warren asked and Henry shook his head.

"That's Noah Baker," Henry answered.

Doc opened the door and Noah rushed over then gasped. "What in the fuck happened?" Noah asked.

"Someone rigged Ethan's body," Henry growled. "The security team was gone when the Bosses got there to dispose of his body."

"What?" Noah fumed. "Where the fuck are they?"

"That's what we would like to know," Henry eyed him suspiciously. "Where were you Noah?"

"Taking care of the two in the dungeon that were working with Ethan," Noah glared back. "You don't think I was up to this?"

"Well they did kill your son for what he did to the Queen," Henry watched him closely.

"And he deserved it!" Noah fumed, "I would have killed the bastard meself if I had known! I had nothing to do with this and I will prove it!"

"Do that," Henry nodded and Noah stormed out of the hospital.

"Do you really think he is involved?" Doc asked and Henry shrugged.

"I don't know," Henry shrugged honestly, "But if he does find evidence for us then that's less work for me at the moment."

"I'll come relieve you in a few hours," Doc nodded. "You need to get some sleep."

Henry watched as his bosses slept next to the one woman who could make them truly happy. What in the hell was going on? Who was after the kings? He thought they had taken out every enemy they had but someone had slipped by unnoticed. He leaned back on the couch and thought back to every fight and every enemy he could think of. There had to be someone that went unnoticed, he just had to think.

"Sleep Henry."

Henry turned away from the door and saw Jason slowly sitting up in his bed. "Boss," Henry smiled.

"Get some sleep Henry," John groaned as he ran his hand down his face.

"Fucking hell," Gabe moaned as he slowly woke. "I'm going to fucking kill whoever put us here."

"Glad to see you awake Boss," Henry nodded. "Ma'am is still sleeping."

"Oh thank fuck," Gabe said sitting up. "She's going to skin us when she wakes and sees us like this."

"Maybe we can talk Doc into keeping her asleep until we heal fully," John suggested. "Then she will never know."

"You try and deceive her," Henry smirked, "and you know just as well as I that she will get her revenge one way or another when she finds out. She notices everything after all. She did notice who you were after all and kept her mouth shut about it until her little outburst."

"True," Jason groaned, "may as well just tell her when she wakes. I really don't want to be on her receiving end."

"Fuck, with all the books she reads there's not telling what she will come up with," Gabe moaned. "She can be downright scary at times."

"She was making so much progress, I worry how she will be now," John said as they watched her sleep. "Let's just hope this doesn't set her back too much."
