Chapter 19
Ming knew his first attempt to contain the situation had failed. The rabbit should have left its hole by now. He wouldn't even have been surprised by a direct contacting from Kaleb. The younger Councilor must have found out enough to get suspicious and it would have been logical to ask the former leader of the Arrow Squad in this particular case, even if he didn't trust him otherwise.

That woman was the second cardinal that had escaped his grip. And he wasn't yet sure which one was worse. She was a perfect target for Pure Psy if he couldn't find a more covered way to get rid of her. But Henry's diminished army of fanatics wasn't ready to pull an op like that. If only he'd discovered her survival earlier. He would have had the back-up of the whole Council to eliminate her. But in this case not all was lost. Maybe it was time he talked to some of his other former fellow Councilors.
