I know it took me longer than Inexpected to write another chapterm But I have my finals, and on Monday this week I had my last big test. I hope you're still interested in my story. So thanks in adavantage and a big thank you to my awesome editor @amys99999 you did an amazing job as always

As soon as they entered the MI5 headquarters, Agent Muller turned to them. With a slight smile on his lips, he approached them.

"I'm glad you could come so quickly. I've been briefed pretty well by Alex and his people on the current situation. I still can't quite believe we finally caught one of the masterminds." He greeted Logan, Rory, Colin, and Finn. 

"We're relieved that Tristan has been caught. Rory and I would also like to talk to him before he is transferred to New York to FBI headquarters, assuming it's possible now," Logan requested while he held his wife's hand tight. 

"Of course, it's possible. Would you perhaps like help from one of my people? I think having an expert in the room might be a good idea. I don't want any more emotional pain inflicted on you and your wife," he explained, looking earnestly at Logan and Rory. 

"Maybe that wouldn't be such a bad thing. What do you think, Logan? If I'm honest, I'm scared to face him, though I'd love to give him back all the pain he's caused us." Rory cleared her throat while she tried her best to control her nervousness. 

"I agree with you, Ace, we have so many people in our inner circle, but in a situation like this, we need readied people around us to help us deal with the situation." 

"That's a good call; Steve is one of our best criminal psychologists and agents at the FBI, especially on tough cases like yours," Delany said, relieved.  He hadn’t wanted to argue with a Huntzberger, but he also didn’t want to subject Logan and Rory to more pain.  

Moments later, a handsome brunette man with glasses in his 30s appeared up next to his boss. "I just couldn't help overhearing that they were talking about me, Max. You must be Mr. and Mrs. Huntzberger, right?" he cleared his throat and looked at them expectantly. 

"That's right, my wife and I don't want to lose another minute and finally be with..." Logan paused for a moment not to lose his composure or nerves. 

"To talk to this despicable individual of a human being? I understand you even if I'm not in your shoes. Come on, together, we can do this. If it gets too much for you, you or your wife can leave the interrogation room at any time. Do you want to take one of your friends with you for support?" Steve finished Logan's sentence and looked at him patiently. 

Steve secretly admired Logan for being so calm. But one thing he was sure of was that Logan and Rory were struggling with themselves. He could well imagine that all the defense mechanisms he had learned during his studies were internalized in the couple, from splitting to regression. 

From a psychological point of view, it was an absolute miracle for Steve that they made it through the last 13 and a half years and, above all, that they were still married.  Divorce was a common result of such devastating events.  It truly amazed Steve that Rory and Logan were still such a strong unit, not to mention having more children. Unfortunately, he had little time to read into the case, as he had recently been pulled off another case, as the Norah Huntzberger case had priority.
