“What do you mean, they’re gone?” Villachor demanded. “Both of them?”

“Yes, sir,” Kastoni said, his tone one of barely controlled fury. “And two of Master Qazadi’s guards are dead. Looks like our glitterstim peddler is more than a typical drug dealer.”

Villachor squeezed his comlink hard enough to hurt. That, or they’d had help from whoever had stolen Sheqoa’s key pendant. “Find them,” he ordered, his own anger and frustration dropping to a quiet simmer. Overt fury would only keep him from thinking clearly, and that was the last thing he could afford. “Pull as many men off ground patrol as you have to, but find them.”

“Sir, they’re probably already off the grounds—”

“If they are, we’ll deal with them later,” Villachor cut him off. “You concentrate on making sure they aren’t hiding somewhere in my house. Is that clear?”

“Yes, sir.”

Villachor keyed off, snarling a curse under his breath, and keyed for Sheqoa. “The prisoners are loose,” he said when the other answered.

“Yes, I just heard,” Sheqoa said grimly. “I’ve sent Kastoni five more men, and I’m trying to pull enough guards from the grounds to put one on every door.”

“Good,” Villachor said. “Make it clear that no one goes in or out without my express order.”

“Yes, sir,” Sheqoa said. “Do you want me to assign a couple more men to you?”

“You mean in case they catch Manning and Tawb napping like they did Master Qazadi’s late guards?” Villachor said acidly. “I think that very unlikely.”

“Yes, sir,” Sheqoa said. “If they’re still here, we’ll find them.”
