Bab 25: Chapter 25

Julio was next to Vitas as they walked into Henri’s suite. “How did you know?” Vitas asked him the same question Armand and Etienne had asked. Julio moved his eyes around the room and spotted a divan. He sat down and brought Vitas with him. Julio thought he should give his new friend more information.

“I told you, I used to be a prostitute. You get a strong frisson up your spine that cries out danger. The one time I didn’t listen was when I took on Nigel Bales as a client. He was the one who put me in the hospital. When I went back to my apartment from Donal and Alexei’s townhouse, I was too goofy to listen to my inner radar because I met Etienne late that afternoon. I admit I pouted because right after meeting me, he left. I found out later he was arranging for my security. If he hadn’t, I wouldn’t be speaking to you now.” Julio shrugged.
