Chapter Eighteen
Banyon entered the second bedroom in the suite and stood by the bed. He looked down at Josephine. He decided she could probably be very attractive if she tried. She had clearly lost some weight while in the hospital and now was about Heather’s size. He pulled up a chair and sat down next to her.
“I know you are wake Josephine,” he whispered conspiratorially into her ear. “You can stop faking it now. I know you speak English too.”
Josephine’s eyes fluttered open. “Who are you? Where am I?” She said with alarm as she pulled her cover tighter around her.
“My name is Colton Banyon. You are in my suite at a hotel. We broke you out of the adult hospital.”
“How did I get into a hospital? Am I sick?” She asked with hint of confusion in her eyes as she studied Banyon’s face.
“Your nephew, Albin Wilk, put you there several months ago,” Banyon answered.
“Oh my God, Why?”
“To take over your estate,” Banyon replied casually. “And to get his hands on the Orion weapons,” Banyon answered truthfully.
“What are you talking about?” Josephine bluffed.
“I know you are the head of the local Society of Orion,” Banyon replied. “You also know who I am, so stop bluffing. You knew I could find all the missing talismans. Under truth serum, you told your nephew everything. Your nephew has told me some of the story, so I could find the talismans.”
Quickly changing her attitude, Josephine said. “Thank god you found me. Did you get the talismans?”
“I have all but two. They will arrive tomorrow morning,” he responded.
“How did you find me?”
“It wasn’t too hard, your nephew left a trail,” Banyon lied.
“Am I safe here?” She gasped. “I need to go home.”
“You’re safe here, but there may be men watching your home. I’ve advised Albin to stay away as well. I’m going to post guards outside your door all night to make sure no one can get to you,” Banyon promised. “Tomorrow, we are going to capture Albin, so there is no need to worry.”
“Wonderful,” she replied like she wasn’t very happy about it at all.
“Josephine, tomorrow morning, all the talismans will be returned to the society. You should know Albin has promised me a substantial amount of money to deliver them to the Banyon Arcades in the morning,” he said smoothly. “I expect that you will accept his responsibility and pay us.”
“Yes, yes, of course. Whatever it takes to get the talismans back,” she said dismissively while she waved her hand.
“Good,” Banyon said with a nod of his head. “In about a half an hour, my friends will visit the suite for a dinner party. I’m sure we could find you something to wear if you want to attend.”
“That would be lovely,” she responded, but her eyes didn’t mean it.
“Okay, you just stay here and relax. I’m going to send in Loni to help you get ready,” he told her as he got up to leave.
“Did you find my cell phone by chance?” Josephine asked expectantly.
