Alexei's Mouse

&ldquo;Never mind, you&rsquo;ll know soon enough.&rdquo;


&ldquo;Now aside from drinking lots of water and getting your haircut, you&rsquo;re free today. I thought we could meet Colin, and Ian at NYU. Kane has half a day today so he can join us,&rdquo; Sean said brightly.


&ldquo;I&rsquo;m sorry. I have no clothes to go out. Plus, the doctor said I have to stay inside.&rdquo; Realization lit up his face. &ldquo;If Alexei says it&rsquo;s okay, and I help Katya, maybe we could have lunch here.&rdquo;


As Donal walked gingerly to the elevator, Sean sent Armand a message on the mate link. Donal&rsquo;s coming downstairs. He&rsquo;s going to ask if Ian, Kane, Colin, and I can have lunch with him, make sure Alexei says yes. It&rsquo;s necessary that he like and trust us because Alexei will need us when he tells him. Donal is skittish.
