He would not see her arrive. She even made him wait a few moments, taking her time to show herself again.

But when she did come, she seemed to appear from nowhere at all, tiny head tilted slightly to the side as she studied him. It was really only her own curiosity that had spurred her to appear at all.

"Hello, Niall. What do you want to ask me?" Her hands were tucked in front of her, eyes serious as they studied him.

She frowned, a real expression to demonstrate the depth of her displeasure and tilted her head to the other side. "Who broke a deal, Niall?"
