Chapter 11

Having Chisolm’s exact location confirmed brought Lionel no sense of joy whatsoever, only a smoldering determination to find the man and make him pay. Castleford’s information set his brain to work thinking of all the ways he and David could rush to Hull and find the man before he had a chance to flee.

But his usually energetic mind flopped into a depressed stupor within minutes of the burst of energy Castleford’s information gave him. David had figured things out. Lionel’s story had done exactly what he’d intended it to do, and he’d never been more miserable. The pain was made a hundred times worse as David rushed to leave The Silver Serpent, as though spending any more time in proximity with him were a death sentence.

Of course, he knew full well that wasn’t why David left. Lord Clerkenwell was on his way, and now that they had proof of both Castleford’s and Chisolm’s whereabouts, the faster David brought Lord Clerkenwell to the brothel, the faster they’d be able to put the whole mess behind them. David had seen what he needed to see at The Silver Serpent and had no reason to linger. Neither did he.

“Darling, I have a few pressing matters to take care of myself before I take up my new position here at The Silver Serpent,” he said with a wiggle of one eyebrow, kissing the miserably old roué whose lap he was sprawled across lightly on his thin, dry lips.

The roué made a pitiful sound of disappointment. “I was so hoping we might become better acquainted sooner rather than later.” He fondled the front of Lionel’s trousers. The gesture was obviously intended to bring Lionel pleasure, but with the current state of his sores, so much pain coursed through Lionel that it was all he could do not to scream with it. The nasty old man probably would have enjoyed that.

Lionel turned his yelp of discomfort into a laugh as he slipped off of the man’s lap. “Believe me, darling,” he flirted, running his fingers through the man’s hair. “You will be so much happier if you wait until I gather a few particular items from my old abode and bring them here.”

“Oh?” The roué lit up, licking his lips and raking Lionel’s body with a glance. “What items might those be?”

“I will leave that up to your imagination, sweeting.” Lionel rested his hands on the back of the chair and leaned in to kiss the man one last time. He pulled away with a wink, then turned to go, his expression sagging into disgust.

He only let his true feelings show for half a second. Matron was enough of a woman of the world to know what whores actually thought of their clients and wouldn’t hold it against him, but he didn’t want the others in the room, especially Castleford, to suspect he was anything other than what he pretended to be.

“Enjoy my gift to you, gentlemen,” Lionel said, nodding to one of the hookahs as he crossed the room.
