Chapter 7

“She is gone now, I made sure she left….,” 

I hear the clear sound of the dead bolt locking, Tory picks up the tray taking it out of the room.

“Should I tail her?” 

Troy pulls out his cufflinks. 

“Are you not worried that she will go to the cops?”

Troy does bring up a fair point, But I’m not too worried…, After all it was quite simple to bug mostly all of her stuff that was in her purse. “Leave her” I pore myself another cup of tea. “For now at least” Just a squeeze of lemon to one cube of sugar. 

“How where you so calm when she snapped back at you when you told her to be calm down!” I take a sip of my tea. 

“Troy.., Don’t ask questions.” I place my cup down. “Do the job I asked you to!” 

Tory nods as he pulls out his phone, He look hardens at what he is reading.., It can only be one of two things.., Ether they found the girl, Or she got away again. “Troy” He look’s up from the phone. 

“The Mayor wants to negotiate for Silva”

How wonderful! They failed to get me in cuffs so now they are trying to go though him to get to me. But I can’t say I was not expecting this, I’ll just have to go with my original plan for his dear Silva. 

“How do you want me to respond?” That is a good question. “Tell them Circe’s has Silva now” If they can’t figure out what that mean then I’m giving them more credit than they deserve! But never the less I warned him that I wanted to settle this privately but he wanted me in cuffs that badly that he rushed them to come after me…, 

After all I did for him to get into office… Him repaying me this way, I let out a heavy sigh. 

“Tory get me some scotch.” He nods, If he where not my right hand I don’t know what I would do.., 

Now for my other problem, Little Lana…, 

What am I to do with her.

But I guess I should wrap up with my problems first. I don’t really need any more shenanigans! There is still much to be done, Why is Try taking so long to get me a drink! Moving out of the sitting area I go to the kitchen where Troy should be. 

“Troy” 

As I round the corner to see Troy cutting ice. 

“Is this why you where taking so long?” 

Tory look’s up from what he is doing to meet my eye line. “I was trying something different..” Why…, “Troy just give me a god dam drink!” I rub the temple of my forehead with my right hand. 

“This make the drink taste better.” Why would I care about how it tastes. 

“I just wanted to have my drink the normal way!” Troy finishes what he was doing by placing the ice into the glass and using the back of a frozen metal spoon he pores the scotch into the glass. 

“Try it..,” 

He hands me the glass, I give him a cross eyed look…., But I take a sip of his ‘special’ drink. 

“How is it?” Why does he have such an expectant look on his face. 

“It does have a more.., Smooth taste……” I let out a loud sigh…, Why did I admit that to him! Now he is going to want to always make me this stupid drink… 

“Deimos, What else do you want me to do? We need to act fast before they do something else.” He is right.. “We., Well, I should lay low.., For now at least.”  Troy nods at my words, There is much we need to discus but I can’t stop thinking about Little Lana. 

“Whatever you need me to do just say the word” Tory there is no one more loyal to me than he is. 

“First thing first.., We go silent and make Harry panic as much as possible, That his precious Silva is truly gone.” Tory’s grin grace the edges of his lips, How funny…, I almost feel bad for what is about to happen at that unmarked warehouse. 

“Oh and another thing.” Troy turns. 

“Yes Deimos?” I place my glass on the bar. “Get rid of Quarrie.” Troy nods as he heads toward the door, There will be no way of cleaning that warehouse when he is done with them! 

But the video that is on all those hidden camcorders will prove invaluable! After all no one can argue with video evidence!
