Antoine had seen the new town Marshal earlier today. Not in person, of course, plague no. But when he’d heard a new replacement for the position had been selected and it was a Clove he’d made it a personal mission to find out what he could about him. The change represented an opportunity. Darrow had been frustratingly on the straight and narrow, damn near impossible to get into his pocket. This one might be easier to sway.
So when he saw the man walk through the entryway of the club, he was quick to act. Tuesdays were a reasonably busy night, the music played soft and pleasant and the sounds of patrons gambling and playing at pool punctuated low Clovennian conversations. Antoine wove his way easily through the crowd nonetheless, dressed in a simple, dark gray suit, it wasn’t immediately obvious who he was and for now, that was to his benefit. Spying Caden he slunk up alongside the bedmate, not too close but certainly at a conspiratorial distance, subtly touching his side.
“You see that tall Joe by the door?” he rasped in soft Aurellian, nodding back towards the entryway, pale eyes tracking back to where Elias stood. “That’s our new lawman. Do me a favor and go figure out what he drinks and fucks, hmm Kitten?” he asked. It had been a while since he’d used one of his bedmates so directly for information but this was important. If he could keep an overzealous Marshal off their backs everyone’s lives would be easier.
