Extending my hand to Penny, I help her to her feet. I’m furious at Ares and to a lesser extend Eros. But I still have Persephone to watch out for. Her safety is the most important thing. Leaning over the table, I scoop up the bullet, brandishing it.
“The hotel where we are staying may be compromised. If our enemies were able to get a bullet into Penny’s suitcase, we have no assurances that she will be safe inside.”
She shivers. “What if the note was hidden in my luggage before the hotel? Or what if the person who planted it wants to drive us from the public eye?”
“That’s a fair question.” I slip my arm around her, squeezing her tightly.
“Do we want to contract security?” Eros asks, standing up at last.
“Already done.” Ares looks at his phone. “I hired some Serbian mercenaries. As long as we have money, they are on our side. And they should be touching down here soon.”
“I also have some place for you to stay that I think will suit our needs,” Eros says. He scrunches up his face. “Let me check it out, but I think it will be perfect for our little artist to work.”
Persephone gives him a dirty look. Smirking at Eros, I shrug. “Let me know.”
