Having returned to Malachi long enough to report that he'd done as was requested of him, Eddie hadn't been back to his flat, afraid that Verity would report him to the Ministry. She'd had time enough to do so, however, and was clearly plotting something else entirely as far his prolonged and personal suffering was concerned.
Eddie had slept on Sullivan's couch and peeked out of the grimy windows long enough. He owed two women two very different things, but his heart was a selfish device, and he chose the more pleasant of his errands first. Pocketing a small, tidily wrapped package, Eddie smoothed his shirt front and his hair, refusing himself the luxury of a few drinks to soften whatever blow he was about to receive.
Apparating behind the shop and coming with considerably less stealth than he'd utilized his last unfortunate visit, Eddie pushed open the door of Slug & Jiggers with great boldness for someone who had not so long ago robbed the place.
