Jim just snorted. “Run into them a lot recently? Or just when you deliberately go back to places you know would be crawling with Watch members?” He’d heard about her heading back to the Apothecary and getting arrested for her trouble, which he wasn’t that impressed with. He’d figured she’d know better. “I’ll be fine.”
The shock showed on her face at his comment but then she realised she shouldn’t really be that surprised he knew. He was in and out of Montague buildings all the time so it shouldn’t have been a surprise that he heard about it. “There were no charges, the whole thing was a fit up. The commander knew damn well that he couldn’t make anything stick, he was just trying to scare me,” she protested. As far as she knew no one else had learned anything about just what the commander was holding over her and as long as it stayed that way she wasn’t worried….too much.
