Selena smiled, brief though it was. Cole. Who else? Cole, through and through. Finding the unexpected, using every opportunity at his disposal. Trapped by the terrorists, she’d found she had a lot more in common with him than she’d once thought.
And it gave her a place to start.
“I’m not sure how I can help you,” Allori said, though he’d been watching her face and knew he’d said something of significance to her.
“You already have,” she told him.
Dobry cleared his throat and said, “Anything you can tell us that doesn’t quite seem ordinary could be of help. We’d also be pleased if you could advise us on the best locations for acquiring local information. We have some information, of course, but—”
Allori cut him off with a frown. “Your best source of that information is standing beside you.”
Selena trod lightly. Carefully. “We haven’t had much opportunity to put our heads together,” she said, saving face for Dobry—for if he’d listened to her, if he’d truly believed her capable in her legate posting here, he’d have known better.
“Ah.” Allori nodded his understanding. “As for the other, you have my complete cooperation. Things out of the ordinary it is.” He drummed his fingers on the desk, one quick riff and then silence. “As delighted as I am to see you, Selena, I’m surprised to find them asking this of you. And without official cover, unless I’m mistaken.”
“Don’t worry about me, Dante.” Selena couldn’t hide her grim response, not entirely. “I would have volunteered for this one, given a chance.”
At that, Allori’s perceptive gaze narrowed slightly. He knew Selena chose her words with care, and that they were to be plumbed for significance…and that whatever was happening, it was of personal importance to her. So again he nodded, and then he turned on his public persona for Dobry’s benefit. “Have you eaten yet? I know of a place you might find interesting.”
