Santino smiled. “I wouldn't know. If you'll please come with me."

He gestured for her to go, a polite motion that was undermined by the lack of respect in his smile and the predatory glint in his eyes.

*I'm not feeling well today,* Latisha signed. *Could I go tomorrow instead?*

Santino shook his head slightly. "I think it would be best if you came with me now, Latisha. If Polly has to come here herself, she won't be as pleasant as I am.”
