“You’re awake,” Yusef said, slipping into the cabin they shared. “As busy as last night was, I thought you’d sleep longer.” Balancing a tray and a jug in one arm, he joined her in the bed. “But I brought breakfast anyway, just in case.”
Breakfast was warm flatbreads and hummus, and dates, and shredded spiced chicken. The jug, when he filled a battered ceramic mug for her, proved to be apricot juice. “Eat up,” he encouraged, taking his own advice by tearing off a strip of bread and scoping up a dollop of hummus. “You’re going to need your strength.”
He chewed it down, the settled back and enjoyed the sight of her - hair touseled from sex and sleep, coffee skin aglow with the fires of dawn. “Gwynn filled me in last night on who exactly that Lord ul-Alfrayit was, and I really wish I’d known who he was at the time.”. He ate some chicken, and washed it down with a swallow of juice. “I could have sold him on the idea of a night with the familiar-looking sexy brunette he was eying last night, and made a present of him to you.”
Sipping his drink, he eyed her. Partly out of concern, mostly because she was well worth dying. “Do you have a plan, and if so do I need to talk you into a less insane version of the plan?”
