“But what are they going to do with him? Will they harm him?”
“Of course not, you fool. La voix is too valuable. They just want Alpha La Marche to cede leadership to Alpha La Farge. No one is harming anyone else. Sean is just an insurance policy.”
“I still don’t like this.” Adele cried.
“All you have to do is take the kid into the bathroom. She always has to go to the bathroom. She won’t make a fuss. Just do what I say and for gods’ sake shut up the brats.”
Bernard signaled to Dimitri who stood outside the back entrance. “Do what I say or you’ll be sorry. Go into the museum and offer to take Elena to the bathroom. There is a second entrance. Take the kids and go out that entrance, Dimitri will be waiting for Elena. Then we’ll get into the car and travel to the safe house.”
“What safe house?”
“The house that Alpha La Farge rented for me. That’s all you need to know. Now go.”
“I don’t like this.” Adele started to walk away.
