Bas killed the man. Ayden couldn't tell for sure, but she was pretty sure he'd done what she'd done to the Atharim hunter - stopped his heart. But he was cruel, but it was believable. He made it look like a real heart attack to those around him. She smiled.
When Boris finally lay on the ground Ayden saw Bas turn and wink at her. Ayden couldn't help but laugh. He was casual about the whole thing. He even called for an ambulance. How gentlemanly of him. Ayden wondered what Connor would think. She hadn't cared whether the man had lived or died. He'd threatened her life, and that of her friends. Bas didn't count, but what would Connor think of her completely disregard for the man's life. She wondered if he'd ever really come to terms with what she did.
Sasha had clung to her the moment she'd been free. But as soon as Bas was free, Sasha was wrapping her arms around her savior. Ayden rolled her eyes.
The woman who had called the ambulance, there was something familiar about her. Ayden couldn't quite place it. Something she should know about her, but Ayden didn't know her. Which was a good thing. If Ayden had known her, she wasn't likely to be sitting there still. At least not from before, now she wasn't so sure she'd ever have many friends. Ayden could fake it being overly friendly was easy, it was all acting, but they'd soon see through it. Sasha was a real friend though. She was probably the only one, and she'd protect her even from a buy like Sebastian if she had to.
Ayden leaned in to Bas' ear, and whispered. "You hurt Sasha, and you'll wish you died like he did."
She kissed his cheek and patted Sasha's back. "Thank you for saving my friend."
Ayden turned to the women at the table, the one who'd called the ambulance. "You are a far braver soul than I am to give your name when thugs are involved. Thankfully his friends weren't here."
It was meant as a cautionary tale to the woman.
