She loved it here. A woman could really relax. Enjoy the food, the culture, and the men. She sighed happily content and she absorbed the sun that licked at her skin. Her eyes slid shut behind her sunglasses sipping a glass of wine a strawberry hugging the rim of her glass. Her work wasn't hard, she had fought through so much to be the best and get here. She would enjoy its rewards, what did she mean would? She was enjoying its rewards.
Footsteps moved quickly through the large villa till getting to the balcony. He shook his head moving quickly towards her. He really didn't want to show her this.
" ? You have to see this." He explained the interruption and held out the tablet towards her.
She brought her head up slightly to look at him before pulling her glasses down her nose slightly to look at him directly. She glanced at her faithful right hand Charles who stood by her lounge chair now from his previous spot following out Bryant. She took the tablet to look at it reading quickly through the document. She sat up quickly as she did.
"Moscow, London, and Washington are already all over it." Bryant shook his head with a heavy sigh looking to the granite of the patio then to her.
"Charles-"
She began but was cut off by Bryant." There is more. London and the US have sent contracts on them already and they are the best. Moscow I don't know what they are doing yet."
He bit the inside of his lip as she looked up to him and her brow furrowed slightly. "Who? Who did they send after them?" She insisted curiously, certainly not her but they knew she wouldn't kill family; she would topple governments before doing that.
Bryant cleared his throat looking to the balcony ground again grasping his hands behind his back pausing for a moment before answering. "Victoria Winslow was sent from London.."
Her head shook. "She won't be an issue. Who did the US send?"
Bryant couldn't look at her; her angry was never good especially on a war path. "Han Cho-Bai" He dared not mumble but still couldn't say it as loud as he liked.
Charles stood straighter as she sprung up quickly shoving the tablet at him. "Track them, find them and prepare everything to leave." She said firmly as she shrugged on her robe over her swimsuit. "Get all the background on this you can, call in any threat or favor we need too."
She turned to Bryant and throttled her hand against his throat quickly. Then tied her robe in hast as she spoke and he struggled for air. "Next time I will break your wind pipe if you call me Moses again. You know better." She finished with a growl then took off into the villa.
Charles sighed disappointedly at Bryant. "You know for reasons like this, "He held up the tablet to make his point. " We don't use the name Moses; she is Sweeney, her mother's name for safety. Now come along and help me do all that needs to be done." He held Bryant's arm to come with him back into the villa, as she stormed around getting prepared, so much for enjoying Italy.
