"Shouldn't we check that out?"
al'Shadis said with a frown. They had been observing the gathering power and Marcus' actions, whatever they were. Perhaps the Ascendancy sent him to investigate significant forces of power.
"No."
He could almost feel the questions throwing themselves at his back. Michael suppressed his irritation. "We are not detectives, Karim. What the Sigma does is his own affair."
"Coward,"
Petrovic muttered.
Michael did not turn. "Do you think the Sigma needs your help? Both of those men could snuff you out without blinking. Or do you think to solve every concern on your own?"
Silence.
"Good."
If Marcus DuBois needed help, Michael was sure he would wave his Sigma status in his face. Loathe as he was to admit it, the man was not a complete fool.
It was as Nikolai had said. One thing he could trust was the man's lust for power. He would do nothing that he was not confident of being successful in.
And if Michael was wrong.....
Well, the man would get what he deserved, and Michael would pick up the pieces.

"She saw a flaring halo around his head, radiant in gold and blue. It shouted of glory and power to come"
