Tony regarded Enzo with curiosity building further. He could not miss the connotations his words held. The man held honour and respect in such high regard, that much was certain. So why was he here, in a place he should by all means detest?
Grief and regret was a powerful drug, Tony knew all too well. He himself had succumbed to its seductive allure. Enzo however, did not strike him as someone who had abandoned himself to the swills of sorrow. There was purpose behind his elegant exterior.
The thoughts milled in his head, his brain pecking at the intrigue like a vulture at morsels of meat. It was not until Hans spoke that he realised the young man had leaned in close to whisper in his ear.
"Something has the 'locals' nervous. Word is the shadows are playing up."
Tony nodded without any change in expression and Hans resumed his lazy posture.
Had someone finally caught his trail? It was an event he had done everything to prevent but nonetheless prepared for.
No matter, he could handle whatever was thrown at him.
"Why,"
Tony asked, returning his attention to Enzo with a flippant smile to pass the time,"would a respectable man like yourself be in here of all places? Drowning in sinful pleasure doesn't suit you."
