CHAPTER TWENTY-FOUR

'Greetings again.'

Freya raised her head off the couch. She looked at the girl on the nearby chair, and shut her eyes. Her head hurt.

'You okay?'

'Yeah.'

'I was starting to worry. You bashed hell out of your head when you fell. Hit the bookcase. You been out for a goddamn hour. You always go around fainting?'

'I… I've been sick.'

'Yeah? You too? I just got over a case of the trots, myself. Something I ate.'

Freya opened here eyes. She sat up slowly, feeling dizzy, and touched the back of her head. A big lump. She looked at the girl. 'Who are you, anyway?'

'Who do you think?'

' Chelsea?'

The girl grinned.

'Can't be.'

'Can't?'

'She's… ' Freya caught herself. 'She's out of town.'

'Oh shit. Where?'

'Up north.'

'Damn it, she knew I was coming. What's she trying to pull?'

'You're her twin?'

'Right on the money. Name's Grenich.' She spelled it.

'I'm Freya.' She spelled it.

'When's el grosso coming back?'

'She didn't say.'

'When'd she leave?'

'Today.'

'Just in time to miss me.'

'She said it was an emergency.'

'I'll bet. Hey look, you mind if I flop here tonight?'

'No. That'd be fine.'
