One More For the Road
Miss' eyes twinkled merrily when she heard of Hasan's fate. "Oh I'm sure he and I could come to some sort of arrangement," she said vaguely. She chuckled.
Robyn held out her own vial of the formula, out of Miss' reach. "So tell me," Robyn said. "If I give you this, what assurances do I have that you won't simply build an army and come take the book by force?"
"None whatsoever," Miss replied without skipping a beat. "Other than, as long as you hold the Tome of the First Tribe, I can keep no secrets from you." She narrowed her eyes menacingly. "Of course, if you assure me that you're on board with our plan to release Vamanando from Its prison, I have no reason to steal it."
"When the time comes," Robyn said. "Just get me to the site and I'll do the rest."
Miss looked at her watch. "How's right now? If we drive fast we can make it by sunrise."
Robyn smirked. "That sounds like a rush job. I would think you'd want to savour what's to come, given how long you've worked at it."
Miss laughed mirthlessly. "You know, I had you pegged all wrong," she looked at Liam. "You should really be protecting us from her."
