"Did Mercy know that?" "Yes," Adam said right over the top of my "no." "She's just feeling guilty because she thinks she should have told Sylvia anyway." Tony looked at me.
"Sylvia's not unreasonable." He paused and gave me a little smile.
"Not really.
If you explained--" "They're gone," I told him.
"It's for the best.
Since I've started running around with the wolves"--and fae and vampires--"this is not a safe place anymore." "Is it safe for you?" he asked.
Before I had to answer, the door opened one more time and Kelly Heart came in.
My office isn't too big--and it was already holding me, Zee, Sam, Adam, Ben, and Tony.

"If you are okay, I don't need to know about any gun I might have to include in my report." "We're fine," I told him.
"Adam's here." "Yeah," said Tony wryly after a quick glance at Adam.
"I think you're safe enough, Mercy.
I'll get back to work." He opened the door.
"You sure you don't want me to talk to Sylvia?" "I'm sure," I said.
